But Zaydi Made Us Tremble

Wikipedia on the Houthis:

Ansar Allah (anṣār allāh أنصار الله "Supporters of God"), known more popularly as the Houthis (Arabic: الحوثيون‎ al-Ḥūthiyyūn), are a Zaidi Shia group operating in Yemen.

Wikipedia on Zaidiyyah:

"Of all the Shi'a schools of thought the Zaydis are the most moderate and tolerant as well as the nearest to Sunni Islam..."
—Abdul Ali, Islamic dynasties of the Arab East: state and civilization during the later medieval times

Back to Wikipedia on the Houthis:

The group's flag reads as following: "God is Great, Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse on the Jews, Victory to Islam". However, commenting on the meaning of the slogan, Ali al Bukhayti, the former spokesperson and official media face of the Houthis said: "We do not really want death to anyone. The slogan is simply against the interference of those governments."

Ali al Bukhayti, your explanation is not very reassuring.  With moderates like the Houthis, who needs radicals?

And while President Obama wants to sign deals (i.e. remove his ring) with the Houthis' backers, the Iranians, with Israel's friends like the Executive Branch of the US Government, who needs enemies?
