Aden, NewsYemen:
A politician close to Ali Mohsen Saleh, Vice President, and the Islah Party, the local branch of the Brotherhood, abused the people of the southern governorates, using terms described as "racist."
Abdel Wahab Tawaf, a former ambassador who is close to Al-Ahmar, described the claimants to restore the state of the south as "of Indian origin, not Yemeni."
Tawaf said on his Twitter account: "I do not know why we find people of Persian origin who are the most hateful of the people of Yemen, and are exposed to their lineage and titles," as he put it.
He added: "The matter applies to the people of Indian origin from the south, they are the most extreme against the north, and they are more demanding for secession and denial of Yemeni identity," he claimed.
Activists and media activists considered Tawaf's provocative statements to have political goals, as they coincide with a military mobilization, media escalation and a war of services for the Brotherhood's wing that controls Yemeni legitimacy, against the south and the areas of influence of the Transitional Council.
Politician Hani al-Beidh, son of former southern president Ali Salem al-Beidh, said that "the tawaf's statements confirm the blind political intolerance and excessive racism of these racist leaders."
Al-Beidh added on his Twitter account: "They defend each other and their leaders without taking into account the feelings of others, provocatively, and without civility or kindness that goes beyond the limits of decency and taste."
While observers were surprised by the racist rhetoric of the former ambassador at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Abdel Wahab Tawaf, towards the southerners, especially as he denied that the south had a Yemeni origin, and then demanded the preservation of unity with the southerners.
Journalist Muhammad al-Kindi commented on the racist abuse of southerners by saying: "The failure of Yemeni legitimacy is due to several reasons, the most important of which is the appointment of incompetent people in diplomatic positions who carry a crooked logic called hidden hatred."
