September brings concern for Houthis and pride to Yemen
The article concerns the anniversary of the Houthi control over Sana'a on September 21, 2014, which in Houthi discourse is referred to as the "September 21 Revolution." However, in reality, it represents a coup against Yemen's legitimate government and the destruction of the state's foundations, leading to the division of Yemen, a civil war, and deterioration of economic and service conditions. This anniversary is considered sensitive both security-wise and politically, as the Houthis seek to replace the symbolism of September 26—representing the revolution that overthrew the Imamate and established the republic—with a narrative that aligns with their coup. In contrast, the true history shows that Yemenis revolted to overthrow the Imamate, not to replace it with the Houthi narrative. Therefore, the Houthis' real fear is that reminding Yemenis of September 26 will evoke memories of resisting the revolution and the republic, threatening their singular narrative and legitimacy.
