One of these crimes that could be considered is trying to violate the dignity of the Yemeni citizen who defends himself, defends his dignity or defends his family, his wife, or any one of his children. The extremist and the terrorist operations were carried out by al-Qaeda and the Houthi rebellion movement as well as the acts of sabotage carried out by the elements of al-Qaeda. However, the proportion of recruits in these organizations increased and the African infiltrators into Yemen increased as well. The phenomenon of piracy at sea, which also belongs to al-Qaeda, emerged. There are three terrorist elements in Yemen, which are al-Qaeda, the elements of secession and the Houthis. In order to confront terrorism, we need to address the issues of poverty, underdevelopment, hunger, and unemployment, and provide jobs for the unemployed youths so that they would not join these terrorist groups. There must be security cooperation between Yemen and all sister Arab States. This will constitute a painful blow to al-Qaeda. Yemen must confront, in the war against terrorism, the terrorists and refer the terrorist suspects to immediate fair trial as well as accept the intellectual dialogue with the deceived and misled ones among those who had not committed terrorist acts.

The family is the first cornerstone in building sound societies. The soundness of any community depends, above all, on the righteousness of the families. The families are major determiner of the manners of the individuals. Indeed, people acquire the social values and standards through their families. They are first introduced to the social trends and through the communication with parents. Therefore, the atmosphere of the families that adopt the methods of socialization should be characterized by harmony, cohesion, understanding, calm, and especially awareness of all the dimensions of the social attitudes inside and outside the family. In so doing we preserve the social values and strengthen the principles of tolerance, the readiness to forgive others, the acceptance of diverged views and the total equality among the children. The latter should learn that young kids must respect the grownups and that the old should sympathize with the children. Everyone should treat the family members on equal footing so that the children grow up in a healthy environment, free from psychological disorders. Thus, our youth would stay away from the terrorist groups since they had developed a defensive mind based on freedom and dignity. The family education must be based on raising the awareness of the children.

The terrorist attacks in Yemen and the attempt of the terrorists to take control of it have caused the security devices to process a new, qualified and successful security operation. However, these successful operations have generated the war between Al-Qaeda and the security forces. The recent operations, which have targeted the most important city of the terrorists, focus on Hathramawt in Yemen, where the security forces have succeed in directing a blow to Al-Qaeda, after they had gotten the secrets by which they were able to break through it. The Yemeni security forces have gleaned a great amount of information from the laptop that they found during one of the security raids, and which enabled the security forces to arrest many members. This has opened the way for them to gain control of Al-Qaeda and the terrorist attacks in Yemen. The hope in the security forces’ restoring security and stability to Yemen is great.

With every day that passes, the victims caused by the terrorist acts increases. Many of our youth have joined those movements to work with because they are victims of brainwashing by them. They recruit many young people who do not know anything under their slogan. The world has suffered from the Al-Qaeda’s crimes. They have worked in many instances on the persecution of the innocent citizens and they have applied the borders that were never among their powers because they do not have any authority on us. They are just human beings not responsible for us. We are better than them. We are Muslims who believe in Allah. We have not worked any day in hurting any person. Our religion has not taught us that violence is the language of dialogue. Our cohesion with each other must increase in order to stand in the face of those movements that are working on disintegrating us. We will resist and will not be afraid of them. We are stronger than them. All their crimes show their vulnerability. We pray to Allah to avenge all the criminals in this world.
