      I find the psychology fascinating. I think it has something to do with isolationism. The rich tend to migrate into their own individual bubbles where it's acceptable to be very self-concerned. The poor have no choice but to act as a community, all for one and one for all. There is strength in groups. But if you have millions of dollars then you don't need a group, so you make your own rules and create your own reality. I'm sure there are exceptions to this paradigm, but it's something I've observed myself many times. The most generous people I've ever known were dirt poor.

      Yemen consists of two Yemens, namely South Yemen, which consists of authentic Arab tribes from which the rest of the tribes of the Arabian Peninsula were formed. South Yemen is the first Arab country to open up to the Western, European and Russian outside world. It is a country with a lot of young cadres open to the outside world. South Yemen is a qualified and valid state to be a state like the rest of the countries that respect the rights of others to life, respect international conventions and preserve international shipping lines. While North Yemen has been a state since its founding, an arbitrary state run by a Zaydi lobby that controls and dominates all levers of power and wealth. North Yemen descended the origins of his sons to the Persians and Abyssinian. North Yemen consists of gypsy tribes that do not respect the rights of others in life and only believe in the logic of wars, murder, looting and intermittent plunder. Since its inception, North Yemen has never sought to be a sovereign state. Rather, the people of North Yemen are divided into three sections as follows: one third of the northern components follow Iran, one third follow Qatar, and the other third are silent. North Yemen is simply a semi-state because its sons are not qualified either scientifically, academically, or culturally. Rather, they do not have the minimum level of basic education. This was the policy of former President Saleh and the Yemeni Congregation for Reform Party (the Muslim Brotherhood in Yemen).
      South Yemen is like South Korea like life and respect others lives and wanna provide something for the other societies whereas North Yemen like North Korea just like to kill the lives of others and like to fight and make life a piece of hell.
      This is the easiest definition from which you can understand the difference between the Two Yemens

    I spent five months in Sana'a in 2004. Everyone was incredibly friendly. Even those who obviously didn't have much would offer to share with me. I attended multiple weddings, uninvited, and was welcomed every time. Never ever did I feel unsafe. I'm sure it helped that my Arabic was reasonably good, but I don't think it would have made much difference if I didn't speak much Arabic, it just would have made it more difficult to communicate. One time I was approached by a man who was obviously not right mentally, and kept saying something about his uncle, but within maybe 10 seconds, at least five other Yemenis showed up and took him away.
    The Yemeni are a beautiful people. The powers that be in the west need to do something to stop the tragedy that is happening there.

    Yemenites are the kindest, most generous, gentlest people I’ve ever met… although I’ve only met the Yemenite Jews here in Israel..
    but still..
    I don’t understand how war can break out in a land of such kind, gentle people?
    Can anyone explain it to me without any cynicism..?
    My heart aches for Yemen. 💔
    Yemenites are unlike any other people I’ve ever met… simple, beautiful (fell in love with the men), kind, frugal, knowledgeable of nature…

    Hi Nick,
    My family left Yemen for Israel in 1949-50. They are from Shar'ab county in the Taiz governorate (in the middle of the road between Aden to Sana'a). I grew up with many of their stories and memories that made me long for a country I had never been to before. So whenever someone visits the old country and shares impressions, I get very excited. Thank you.
    I recently finished writing a fiction novel about Yemen in 1947. In one of the chapters, I write about Mukalla. The city that you have just visited. I wasn't surprised when one of the shopkeepers told you that he wants the British to come back. The sultans of Qu'ati - the state of the city of Mukalla - admired the British culture and tried to bring it to their territory.
    As for the language, the Yemenis don't use much "Shukran" to say thank you. Instead, they bless you. Notice that during your visit to the market, they replied to your "Shukran" with "(Allah) Yandilak alAfi'ya" - may God give you health - or "Hayak" - to your life.
    I look forward to the rest of your journey in Yemen. I hope it will be most enjoyable and go smoothly. Stay safe.
