Amid the boiling conditions gripping the region as a result of Zionist thuggery, and as the world anticipates an inevitable confrontation that may represent the enemy’s final attempt to rescue its entity from the mire of decline it has suffered at the hands of the free people of the nation opposed to its aggressive project, and in light of the state of chaos prevailing in inter-Arab relations as a consequence of the Zionist plan to “fragment” the nation, there is no doubt that the world—and the Arab region in particular—stands on the threshold of a decisive chapter in the year 2026.

The new year inherits from its predecessor the repercussions of the recklessness left behind by “Israeli” misconduct, including widespread acts of sabotage and multiple attacks on global peace. These actions stem from its frenzied attempts—carried out with declared American support—to impose itself as a supreme ruler over Arab and Islamic peoples and to control energy resources and international waterways upon which the entire world depends. As a result of resistance to these endeavors, the situation has escalated into an exceptional state of tension and anticipation regarding the outcomes of the inevitable and fateful clash between Zionist insistence and steadfast resistance.

The Accumulation of the Factors of Collapse of the Axis of Evil

It has become evident that the enemies of the nation, among the states of arrogance have resolved to pursue a suicidal adventure looming on the horizon, one that may plunge them into severe economic crises. No one knows how the battle will unfold or to what extent it may escalate; however, what is certain is that those who have failed to comprehend the meaning and implications of the position the “Israeli” entity has reached today—after having been shaken before the world when it once stood at the height of “Pharaonic” arrogance and exceptional capabilities—are merely gambling on the Zionist military force they planted as a guardian of their interests in the region. Consequently, wagering on such an adventure is nothing but a gamble and a deeper descent into the quagmire of failure.

The aggressive maneuvers and destabilization of the region aimed at preparing the ground for a so-called “empowerment” battle for the enemy, raising the level of chaos and creating new realities, all point to the accumulation of the causes of collapse for the axis of evil and the approach of extremely painful transformations for its front. Achieving “Israeli” ambitions of absolute hegemony and subjugating peoples to serve their interests has become impossible. Today, there exists a jihad and resistance axis that has proven its effectiveness and its ability to inflict unexpected strategic shocks, after Western powers had long treated Middle Eastern states as lands and wealth open to plunder.

Over the past two years, the world has observed how the Zionist enemy activated all its capabilities, with global economic and military powers aligning behind it, while others remained silent spectators. Despite this, the resistance axis emerged in a manner that cannot be bypassed or reversed to the pre-emergence stage. This occurred despite the “Israeli” enemy possessing all the supposed prerequisites and factors for victory, yet it failed even to alter the steadfast principles of the people of Gaza, including the resistance. As for defeating them, it remains nothing more than an obsession and a waking dream, a reality that events have conclusively demonstrated.

The Warning of the Leader

The year 2026 will undoubtedly be decisive, aided by reckless Israeli-American momentum. The illusion of forcing the states of the region to accept the entity as an inevitable fate and to engage with its expansionist ambitions and delusions without objection or recorded stance will dissipate. The forces of the resistance axis—foremost among them the Yemeni people—are at a level of readiness to assume responsibility for defending the nation and Arab lands. The enemy should not dream of exceeding what it achieved during a brief “temporal lapse” in which paralysis overcame the nation; efforts are underway to restore it to its natural state through the conclusion of this historical chapter of occupation, clipping the claws of the American devil, and compelling it to deal with the states and peoples of the region on the basis of full parity.

Liberation from Western domination and the usurpation of rights is non-negotiable. The enemy will not obtain what it seeks even if it resorts to futile measures such as recognizing newly emerged entities or attempting to deploy its bases in new areas to besiege Arab states or redraw their geography. In this context came the explicit Yemeni warning voiced by the Leader, who stated: “We consider any Israeli presence in the Somaliland region a military target for our armed forces, as it constitutes aggression against Somalia and Yemen, and a threat to the security of the region.” He added: “We will not accept that any part of Somalia be transformed into a foothold for the Israeli enemy at the expense of Somalia’s independence and sovereignty, the security of the Somali people, the security of the region, and the Red Sea.”

The Final Chapter of American Interests

The United States, which seeks to convince the world that it is detached from what is happening in the Middle East and that the actions of the Israeli entity are its own, knows that everyone is fully aware of its role behind all this chaos, and that it will not be distant from the acts of thuggery this year, the early signs of which began last year. What is certain is that what the United States has carried out over decades—imposing hegemony and plundering the wealth of Arabs and Muslims—could be lost in moments when the fire engulfs everything. At that point, realities will write the final chapter of American presence, interests, and relationships.

Arabs will not accept that Zionist malevolence—orchestrated and protected by the greater devil America —continues to strip them of stability in order to control their resources and strategic locations. This points to the potential eruption of a sweeping uprising across the Arab and Islamic street. Recognizing this reality and dealing with it responsibly is the only way these colonial powers might preserve any portion of those interests, in a manner that also aligns with the interests of Arab and Islamic peoples. Accordingly, the notion that Arabs will remain in a state of submission is sheer folly. The entity has rampaged and intensified its brutality against Arab states, and its failure to achieve anything does not justify its resort to escalating violence and targeting.

The Axis of Evil in the Abyss of Humiliation and Degradation

Days ago, the entity’s recognition of what is termed “Somaliland” as an independent state triggered angry and condemnatory reactions worldwide, particularly given the awareness of its aggressive intentions aimed at restoring control over Arab waters by force and dominating maritime traffic and straits. However, miscalculations will undoubtedly plunge the region into rampant chaos. Yemen will not accept the continuation of the enemy’s violations and its contempt for the nation. Moreover, controlling the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab would first require passing through the “Gate of Yemen,” where the enemy would face an outcome far worse than what it experienced over the past two years.

For the Yemeni people, this will indeed be a struggle of existence rather than borders, a struggle of dignity, independence, and sovereignty. It is not possible to sit in the seats of spectators while the Zionist draws policies for the country and defines its ambitions. Accordingly, all indicators point toward the deeper fall of the entity and its supporters into a dark abyss of humiliation and disgrace. The capabilities upon which they relied have been exposed during confrontation, whether against the Palestinian resistance or the states of the resistance axis, as missiles struck deep into their core.

This time, the components of the resistance axis are stronger, and Yemen stands at an exceptional level of readiness, with unparalleled popular mobilization to put an end to this enemy whose recklessness and malice have only increased. It will mean nothing to the proud people whether the criminal “Trump” grants permission to the criminal “Netanyahu” or holds other visions. Defending religion and homeland is a principled matter, and it is impossible to allow the Israeli occupier to wreak havoc and shape the region as it pleases.
