Yemen: to squash a popular rebellion with Al-Qaeda as excuse

lately I walk shuffling the following theory: Al-Qaeda does not exist, they are the parents. Or the CIA, I do not realize it very well. One of the two. Or the two, I do not know.
On the pretext of fighting against the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda, the United States has bombarded the north and the south of Yemen.
In the north a rebellious focus formed on part exists the minority chií of the country that has risen against the government yemení. Approximately 180 dead persons in the civil bombings of last month, the majority.
In the south Socialist - separatist finds a movement, with big force in the territories that shaped the extinct Democratic Republic of Yemen. 64 civil dead persons in only one I bombard three weeks ago.
In short: less to Al-Qaeda, him bombs have fallen down to the whole world.
"Saleh's government worries more about the rebellion Houthi, lit from 2004, which with Al-Qaeda, even if the last one worries us more. The government yemenita also worries with the insurrection of the south and in spite of supporting Saleh in the power at any price. "The extremism" that it fights is a vague formulation that omits the complexities of these multiple uprisings and political challenges. The government yemenita will be undoubtedly happy taking the money and the American and international support to finish with his enemies, but let's not hope that it does anything that comes closer what we want" (Extract of the article “Don't lose perspective on Yemen” of Foreign Policy, for Marc Lynch).

And the fact is that there are days that Al-Qaeda comes like ring to the finger …
