  How Yemen’s 'Asabiyya' Is Reshaping Geopolitics PEPE ESCOBAR The Arabic word Asabiyya, or ‘social solidarity,’ is a soundbite in the west, but taken very seriously by the globe’s new contenders China, Russia, and Iran. It is Yemen, however, that is mainstreaming the idea, by sacrificing everything for the world’s collective morality in a bid to end the genocide in Gaza. When there is a general change of conditions, It is as if the entire creation had changed and the whole world been altered, as if it were a new and repeated creation, a world brought into existence anew. — Ibn Khaldun Yemen’s Ansarallah resistance forces have made it very clear, right from the start, that they set up a blockade in the Bab el-Mandeb and the southern Red Sea only against Israeli-owned or destined shipping vessels.

This is because Sarah Ransome, the witness who mentioned him, has been deemed by observers as less reliable than Virginia Giuffre. The Washington Times reports  8th January 2024: Unreliable witness Sarah Ransome also mentioned President Trump. This has led to some inquiring whether Trump has been implicated. The best way to assess the names mentioned by all witnesses is to match them with other corroborating  evidence . Such corro
