(1995) Sa'dah
Insurgency (2004-Present) Following
a bloody war which ended in 1932, the new kingdom
of Saudi Arabia concluded a peace treaty with it's
southern neighbor, Yemen. This agreement, called
the Taif Treaty, delineated their common border,
though disputes have flared up over the years.
Apparently, the official reasons for this current
round of border fighting relates to disputes over
who owns certain islands in the Red Sea. However,
it is also known that the monarchist Kingdom of
Saudi Arabia is rather uncomfortable with Yemen's
experiment with democracy (Yemen is the only nation
on the Arabian Peninsula with a democratic style
government). Allegations have been made that Saudi
Arabia is attempting to sabotage this democratic
regime through military intimidation as well as
aiding internal strife within Yemen. (See
