Shiite Houthis take over Yemen's capital. Their logo says "Damn the Jews."

The fun in the Middle East continues:

Yemen's Houthi fighters have tightened their grip on the capital Sanaa after seizing much of the city in a lightning advance and signing an overnight deal to win a share of power, capping a decade-long uprising against the government.

On Monday, the heavily armed rebels raided the house of General Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar and set up checkpoints across Sanaa, as the general and his allies fled and went into hiding.

They also raided the Suhail TV channel's headquarters in the capital, a day after the signing of a UN-brokered peace deal between the government and the Shia rebel group.

Here is the Houthi logo that they spray paint all over Yemen:

It says:

God is Great, Death to America, Death to Israel, Damn the Jews, Power to Islam."

(Some translate the fourth line as "Curse the Jews.")

Isn't that lovely?

Yemen's president has long claimed that Iran was behind the Houthi insurgency. He said that this capture of Sanaa was a "conspiracy is beyond any imagination. We were stabbed, and we were betrayed. . . . It is a cross-border plot where many forces allied together.”

But they hate Al Qaeda, so they must be out allies!
