00:00:05to fight this
00:00:12fighters, at least, who were teaches, whether in schools or in
00:00:14Every time I go to
00:00:21Yemen,
00:00:22he studies this ideology. He studies this two queues, one to school
00:00:25and one to the trenches.
00:00:28In the first,
00:00:30him, "No, you're not going. This at noon, and in the second, a pouch
00:00:34will fulfill what you want." My words were on the chest. In the first, fingers holding a pen,
00:00:38and in the second, small
00:00:4117 years old, we will find him today on fingers pulling
00:00:45and the revolution was erased, not the trigger.
00:00:51Between these
00:00:52It was not a change in two queues, not only a childhood is lost, but
00:00:56the fate of an entire
00:01:00and war were not spared
00:01:02When a child reads history, they do not stage dropped out of country is determined. What happens to a homeland when its children are stolen from school benches? And what kind of Yemen
00:01:06ruler, and the militia awaits us if the path from school
00:01:09to the front becomes shorter than the path to the future?
00:01:17Al-Rass and his lineage. In the books of the early grades, the
00:01:21doors of influence. It comes from
00:01:33itself with what was told to the child in
00:01:41many facts are obliterated, wants is a child who
00:01:48Before the war, education
00:01:51two camps, and with a small grade, this meaning in Yemen was not ideal, but it was moving, albeit slowly,
00:01:55forward.
00:01:58Classrooms were full of children, and in the academic year
00:02:022012-
00:02:04or an adult. This 2013, more than five million
00:02:08consciousness, in the
00:02:09other than war? And who children were distributed among approximately 17,000 schools and crowded into
00:02:13more than 136,000
00:02:15classrooms. And every
00:02:18It imposed it on adults, morning, the child would carry their small bag
00:02:20academics, employees, and go to
00:02:21women, a place where they would learn that they have a name,
00:02:25a right, and a future.
00:02:28Dropping out of schools
00:02:31المدارس
00:02:33was somewhat acceptable, and its reasons were economic,
00:02:37resulting from ignorance and lack of awareness
00:02:41of the family
00:02:42all of this. First, he changed in most Imamite, priestly ideas in cases about the importance of education. Also, in
00:02:45rural areas, which represent more than 70% of the population
00:02:49of the Republic of Yemen, often the school is usually
00:02:52up to middle school, to ninth grade for example, and then the students
00:02:58which the education do not find an opportunity to continue their education to high school and beyond, so they drop out, especially girls,
00:03:02meaning in light of the limited number of female teachers
00:03:05in rural areas
00:03:06specifically.
00:03:12Then the war came, and the ceiling collapsed, and the
00:03:15classroom was destroyed, and the blackboard was scattered,
00:03:19starts from and the chairs were broken,
00:03:21kindergarten and the wall collapsed, and the place that
00:03:25will enable it to was supposed to protect
00:03:29the child was destroyed. Thousands of schools lost their ability to
00:03:32perform their function. Some of them became ruins,
00:03:34some of them became shelters, and some of them
00:03:38became part of the war.
00:03:41When the Houthi militia
00:03:43brainwashing the curricula. I mean, came, it struck
00:03:47two pillars of Yemeni society
00:03:51They can get literacy education in fatally. A major transformation occurred for women and children on the other
00:03:54side.
00:03:57With the escalation of the war, going to school became
00:04:01a risk. The teacher found himself in front of a blackboard
00:04:05child is not trained only without a salary, al-Din al-Houthi. In the camp, the and many families
00:04:08found themselves unable to pay the simplest costs
00:04:11of education. The child's bag became a burden,
00:04:15and families began to make painful
00:04:18changing inside. decisions. We ask
00:04:21God and pay the house rent and pay for my house.
00:04:25I'm sick, lying in the house.
00:04:29Some of us get the certificate from the country to study here.
00:04:32We ask God here. The
00:04:36must be reflected in old man came to work. We sold it for 100. Let us have 50
00:04:38after
00:04:41basic training in that. So to gather the house expenses, house rent. The Houthi
00:04:45militia started recruiting children early on, even before
00:04:49or even religious the six wars. First, it disrupted public education in
00:04:52Saada from the beginning, and
00:04:55Saada was
00:04:57the book. It left on the lists of public education.
00:05:01The most governorate with dropouts
00:05:04in the republic in terms of public education dropouts, meaning
00:05:09and guardianship came to the family that in Saada, young students do not go to
00:05:13schools. After that, in the six wars,
00:05:16the Houthi militia had
00:05:19a percentage exceeding 30% of
00:05:24children under the age of 14, and even
00:05:2712. And these are indoctrinated from a young age. Imagine,
00:05:31from the age of six or five,
00:05:35Imamate ideology, so he believes that he is fighting
00:05:38for the sake of God and that he will enter Paradise by defending the master.
00:05:50The governorates after that, in 2014, after the surrender
00:05:54of the capital to the Houthi group, the education
00:05:57system collapsed in general as part of the general
00:06:01collapse of the system of protecting and promoting and protecting child
00:06:04rights in the Republic of Yemen. So we found that
00:06:08children at this
00:06:11school in a massive way. In addition to that,
00:06:15the militia became the
00:06:19does not derive its existence and continuity
00:06:23from the satisfaction of society or from the growth and well-being
00:06:26of society, but rather derives its existence and continuity from
00:06:29the continuation of the state of war, the continuation of the state of killing
00:06:33and death, the continuation of economic decline, educational
00:06:37decline, and the increase in illiteracy rates
00:06:40and semi-literates. These are
00:06:44the yeast that feeds any armed militia,
00:06:47and at its head is the Houthi group, which fundamentally
00:06:51stems from ideological and doctrinal principles that are based on the idea
00:06:55that it enslaves the people
00:06:58you know, subordinate to it, with no
00:07:01rights, but rather only to listen and obey, and this one
00:07:05who listens and obeys must not
00:07:11be educated. When the daily path to the classroom
00:07:15is lost, where does the child go? Is there
00:07:18any other path for them picks them up when
00:07:22the school does not? With every child who leaves
00:07:25its walls, the family does not only lose their
00:07:28child, but Yemen loses a small
00:07:31chance for salvation. Some
00:07:35killed their parents because their
00:07:38parents were not with the Houthis. Some killed their brother,
00:07:41their uncle. I mean, we hear news
00:07:45and events that make one's hair stand on end in areas under Houthi control, how these
00:07:48children turned into young men who killed
00:07:52their fathers because of these
00:07:54abominable racist , priestly ideas, and what the father
00:07:58and mother and older children are subjected to,
00:08:02the child is subjected to, but in a multiplied way. So when the father
00:08:06dies, the child becomes an orphan. When the mother
00:08:09dies, the child becomes an orphan, and
00:08:13can become homeless. When the house is destroyed or
00:08:16the school is blown up, or the child drops out of school, he transforms
00:08:20and is taken in by the street
00:08:22and is taken in by
00:08:25the Houthi militia, who recruit him and brainwash him. So what the child
00:08:28in the world suffers, the Yemeni child suffers
00:08:32many times over in these circumstances, unfortunately. I think
00:08:35that the destruction of more than 3,000
00:08:38schools was not the biggest reason for
00:08:42the educational collapse in Yemen, because children can leave
00:08:46schools, or not enroll in schools,
00:08:49for other reasons. But when there is
00:08:52brainwashing of children's minds, brainwashing
00:08:56of school curricula, this is the dangerous problem, because
00:08:59dropping out of school can be overcome.
00:09:03the future.
00:09:14But the school did not completely die. Some
00:09:17schools did not close their doors. The
00:09:20classrooms remained, the desks remained,
00:09:23and the bell remained.
00:09:28However, something else was
00:09:31What is told to the child, and what
00:09:34is erased from his memory, and what is planted in his consciousness
00:09:38here. We are no longer facing a school
00:09:41that has eroded only, but rather a school
00:09:44that has changed.
00:09:51I mean, when I was first pregnant with my eldest son, I used to say, "How
00:09:54do mothers let their children go to school normally
00:09:57and walk on the road normally and they have no
00:10:01problem?" I mean, I used to tell myself, "What is
00:10:05this? They are not normal mothers for letting them go." So what about later when they tell me
00:10:09he went to the front? Children specifically at the beginning of puberty,
00:10:12at the age of 11 or 12,
00:10:16are lured by being told, "You have become
00:10:20a man. Carry a weapon," encouraging them
00:10:23that they must go to the front.
00:10:27I mean, children at this age aspire
00:10:30to be men, so the Houthi was able to take them,
00:10:33take the children and gather them to the
00:10:35fronts.
00:10:41Sometimes the disaster is not in closing
00:10:44the school, but in it remaining
00:10:47open through a curriculum that changes,
00:10:50rituals that are introduced, and a slogan that competes
00:10:54with the lesson. This is how the
00:10:57school changed in areas under the Houthi
00:11:00militia's control. The textbook was no longer as
00:11:03it was. The interpretation was altered, and
00:11:07history changed,
00:11:10only from the book, but from the memory of the new
00:11:13generation.
00:11:17a page, nor an amendment in a lesson. It was a long
00:11:21path to reshape the child's memory.
00:11:27only learn the past, but they learn
00:11:30who they are, who they belong to, who they trust,
00:11:33and who they fear.
00:11:35منه.
00:11:39change does not enter through politics first, but
00:11:43through the deepest
00:11:46the first words with which the child learns the meaning
00:11:49of religion, the meaning of obedience, and the meaning
00:11:52of following. In the subject of the Holy Quran
00:11:55for the first grade, the child learns from a lesson related
00:11:59to Surat Al-Fatiha that prophets and guides
00:12:02are on the same level. And in the second grade,
00:12:06the concept of jihad for the sake
00:12:09of God enters their early consciousness. Then in the third
00:12:14turns into a song that students chant and memorize
00:12:18by heart. And in the fourth grade, children
00:12:22learn that the two testimonies are
00:12:24the faith of the Messenger of God and his family. Step
00:12:27by step, not only the curriculum changes,
00:12:31but the first keys with which the child
00:12:34understands religion, history, homeland,
00:12:38and others change.
00:12:41He usually, when any curriculum is prepared,
00:12:45the curriculum
00:12:49is set according to the
00:12:51goals of the state or
00:12:55society. So there must
00:12:57be goals for us, the Yemeni society, that are called
00:13:01strategic goals of the state, which is
00:13:04creating a righteous Muslim
00:13:07citizen
00:13:10who possesses all the good values and morals
00:13:14that lead to him
00:13:18being a good and productive citizen
00:13:21belonging to this homeland. So the curricula must be structured in this way.
00:13:25I mean, first,
00:13:27achieving the strategy of the state
00:13:30and society. Second, it is done
00:13:33according to the educational stages:
00:13:37primary stage, preparatory stage, secondary stage,
00:13:40and university. I mean, when we talk about the curriculum, it
00:13:46or pre-school education
00:13:49to university education. This
00:13:54is formal education, and it is also accompanied
00:13:58by non-formal education or what is after
00:14:01open education. All of these must
00:14:05comply with the state's policy
00:14:08and
00:14:11the state's general approach. The Houthi is now focusing on
00:14:14creating a special generation
00:14:17for him, a generation that believes
00:14:19in guardianship, believes that anyone who is not on
00:14:23the path of guardianship is an infidel. Their blood, money, and honor are permissible. This
00:14:27is present in their curricula, and Muhammad Abdel Azim al-Houthi openly declares
00:14:30it, and the leaders of the Houthi group declare it. It is not hidden. Before,
00:14:34when we talked about it, we would leak or say
00:14:37information that had not reached the public at least. Today,
00:14:40we are talking, and YouTube is abuzz, and social
00:14:44media is abuzz with their statements about guardianship
00:14:47and what results from believing or disbelieving in guardianship. And
00:14:51it wants to indoctrinate this generation so that
00:14:54it can continue for long decades and believes
00:14:58that it will rule with this generation that it is building now. Therefore,
00:15:01they focused primarily on even appointing
00:15:05a Minister of Education, Yahya Badr al-Din al-Houthi,
00:15:08who is heavily indoctrinated,
00:15:12meaning that this file is important to them. This generation
00:15:16must be destroyed and indoctrinated with these ideas
00:15:19so that it remains their fuel in the future for
00:15:22long decades. Today, the Houthi is planting
00:15:26the idea anew that the first and last
00:15:29command belongs to the master, and that governance
00:15:34from the Lord of the Worlds, and that people must submit
00:15:37them because they will not enter paradise at all unless it is through
00:15:40Abdul-Malik al-Houthi and his supporters.
00:15:44What is happening in these curricula that the Houthi
00:15:49summer centers or in special courses
00:15:52for our children in the
00:15:56areas under his control, are all bad ideas, all
00:15:59Imamite ideas. He re-teaches
00:16:02the Imamite ideology that he believes in, that
00:16:05all obedience belongs to Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, and they
00:16:08must listen and obey, and they must pay
00:16:11taxes.
00:16:17In areas under Houthi control, the curricula of the basic
00:16:21stage from the first grade to the ninth
00:16:24grade are rephrased around a single narrative:
00:16:27a prophetic biography read from a dynastic
00:16:31perspective, a Hadhrami jurisprudence, and Islamic
00:16:35history centered around the Hashemite
00:16:37dynasty. Thus, meanings change in the child's mind.
00:16:41Controversial figures are presented as heroes,
00:16:44and rebellions are narrated as revolutions, and the
00:16:48vast history of Yemen is condensed into the moment
00:16:52of the arrival of Al-Hadi
00:16:55Over time, the child does not read the history
00:16:58of his country as Yemenis lived it, with its diversity
00:17:01and breadth, but as the militia wants
00:17:04him to remember it: a history
00:17:07passes through it, and ends
00:17:09with it.
00:17:12This is the danger of the matter.
00:17:16Why? Because
00:17:19whether historical facts, social
00:17:22even
00:17:25political facts,
00:17:26and replacing
00:17:29them with what is present or
00:17:33the current orientation of any party, and this, of course, creates
00:17:37a distorted consciousness in the citizen, whether a child
00:17:42distorted
00:17:45end, reflects negatively on everyone. The Houthi
00:17:49began changing the curricula from
00:17:51the first year he took control
00:17:55of the state in Sana'a.
00:17:57Gradually, we used to study national education as
00:18:01children, and the state taught us national education. We read about
00:18:05Al-Zubairi, and we read about Ali Abdel Al-Moghni, and we read about
00:18:08Al-No'man. And we read about all the martyrs who sacrificed themselves,
00:18:12and we read from the great prisoners from the beginning of
00:18:14Yemeni civilization. And now he has abolished
00:18:20the names of schools from Yemeni names and even some names of
00:18:23companions to sectarian names. And he also
00:18:26teaches about the late Hussein Al-Houthi, who has become
00:18:30the role model and the center around
00:18:35system in Yemen revolves, if you will. There was a group
00:18:39like private schools trying to follow a parallel
00:18:42path and teach the curricula that existed, but unfortunately, the Houthi
00:18:46surrounds them from all sides. So unfortunately, he infiltrated and imposed
00:18:50parallel curricula on them, and supervisors in every school, and it
00:18:53even reaches the point where there is a supervisor in every classroom
00:18:57who monitors the teaching of these Houthi curricula
00:18:59that distort the mind and distort identity and try to obliterate
00:19:03the Yemeni identity. The Houthi militia focused from the very first moments
00:19:09on education and targeting education
00:19:12by changing the curriculum because it is an
00:19:15ideological idea, and therefore it wants to build society as
00:19:18it wishes, as it wants,
00:19:21and recruit all these generations for its own benefit. Your
00:19:24son can be kidnapped from inside the school and taken to a summer
00:19:28camp, and then you find him on the front. If he returns alive, he will return as your
00:19:32enemy. And if he returns dead, then it was fate. So you are facing
00:19:35a serious problem that all fathers, mothers, and guardians
00:19:39are facing now. They are the ones who
00:19:43fortify their children against these extremist ideas.
00:19:47And we have seen in more than one school a supervisor
00:19:50come and say, "Death to America, death to Israel!"
00:19:54And the students unanimously shout, "With spirit, with blood, we sacrifice for you, Yemen!"
00:19:57And for this reason, there must be awareness among
00:20:00everyone of the importance of setting
00:20:04curricula for this state,
00:20:07its history, its geography,
00:20:10its values, its morals. These
00:20:13the curricula, and not just what we see or
00:20:17what aligns with our orientations, whether
00:20:20our political or historical
00:20:24or social
00:20:27orientations. I mean, in the end, God
00:20:29created
00:20:31human beings equal. The opponents of
00:20:35the Houthi militia, before preparing
00:20:37to confront it militarily, must
00:20:40confront these effects and these
00:20:44results that it has produced and these actions that the Houthi militia
00:20:48has carried out throughout the past periods with cultural weapons,
00:20:51with intellectual weapons, with awareness weapons
00:20:55ال
00:20:57massive wave that will
00:21:00remain for long decades until we get rid of it.
00:21:04the front. All the foolishness
00:21:07is gone. I felt that it was
00:21:11a ready decision. After God, he just came
00:21:15to say goodbye to me. I tried every way to tell
00:21:20is not what you want. I in extra
00:21:24time, meaning he had already
00:21:27decided.
00:21:29He didn't study. If he could have sent me a message, "Mother, I hope to see you
00:21:33well," meaning, "I'm going to travel."
00:21:35He went for me.
00:21:44Even subjects that are supposed to remain far from politics
00:21:50from this change. The rifle enters the child's
00:21:53picture, and bullets and rockets
00:21:56become part of the lesson's
00:21:58language. Here, the war does not remain outside
00:22:02the school, but becomes part of the child's daily
00:22:06imagination. The child learns arithmetic, but the images
00:22:09around him do not tell him that the world is apples
00:22:13and balloons. They tell him that the world is a rifle,
00:22:16an enemy, a battle, and death that can be called
00:22:20glory. And herein lies the
00:22:23danger, for the child does not change in one day.
00:22:27He changes slowly, with a word that repeats,
00:22:30with an image that follows him, with a slogan he
00:22:34memorizes before he understands it, and with a story that divides the world in
00:22:37his eyes into
00:22:41lesson that moves the war from outside to
00:22:45inside him. Which is more dangerous: changing curricula or
00:22:48closing schools? Of course, both are dangerous, whether closing schools or changing
00:22:52curricula. But I think that changing curricula is much more dangerous than
00:22:55closing schools. Closing schools in itself
00:22:58is a catastrophic thing
00:23:01that deprives children and deprives children
00:23:04of one of their most important rights, which is education. But
00:23:08the effects of closing schools can be remedied
00:23:11through many means.
00:23:14However, the danger of changing curricula is considered a very
00:23:18great danger because it works to change
00:23:22the ideas of children. The issue that
00:23:26the curricula and planting his racist, sectarian,
00:23:30the curricula, is considered to produce for us a whole
00:23:33generation. I can briefly call it
00:23:37time bombs. You,
00:23:40by changing the educational curricula,
00:23:44are producing extremist ideas,
00:23:47racist ideas, dynastic ideas, ideas that are hostile
00:23:51to patriotism, hostile to freedom,
00:23:53hostile to equality, hostile to justice,
00:23:56and push for loyalty to a specific
00:23:59person, or a specific dynasty, or a specific sect, or a specific
00:24:03group. This is much more dangerous than closing the school. Brainwashing
00:24:06the curriculum is very dangerous, and therefore the Houthi group realizes
00:24:10that it is carrying out a systematic, long-term action that
00:24:15feed on these dropouts and uneducated or
00:24:18distorted minds. Therefore, it is now
00:24:21seeking to, I mean, sustain its wars,
00:24:25sustain its fighters, sustain the state of
00:24:28war and conflict. Therefore, it has resorted to
00:24:33at the beginning, when the Houthi movement
00:24:36appeared, it used to deceive children
00:24:40with chants
00:24:43and poems, trying to deceive the youth
00:24:46and stir their emotions, starting from 16 years old or even
00:24:5010 to 12 years old, and so on.
00:24:52So the most dangerous, and not less dangerous, is changing the curricula
00:24:56and changing the intellectual structures within society.
00:25:00I started messaging all the fathers. Father of so-and-so, father of so-and-so.
00:25:03Father of so-and-so. "Prevent my son, prevent my son." People used to tell me, "My
00:25:07daughter, take your son from us. We give the children
00:25:10pills from them," meaning we give them pills so they are not
00:25:14in their right minds, and I don't mean that he faces the front with all this
00:25:17courage. I just said, "I have to start it." I was aware that I was
00:25:21entering a war. I was entering a war. I contacted
00:25:24all of them. I didn't care. They used to tell me, "Teacher,
00:25:27it's an effort for the homeland," and I am not
00:25:30willing to see a picture or a disabled person
00:25:33or want my son,
00:25:37people. I mean, they are our worst enemies, so
00:25:40we must be careful of these enemies.
00:25:44The change did not stop at
00:25:47the classroom and went to the yard. The morning
00:25:50assembly and at school events and activities,
00:25:54and I teach my colleagues
00:25:56calligraphy and the arts of calligraphy, and in the speeches given to children,
00:26:00the school began to take another
00:26:03form. This is our journey from generation
00:26:06to generation. Its beginning was small centers.
00:26:10So military language began to infiltrate the school
00:26:13day, and the slogan began to compete
00:26:16with the lesson, and the lineup became wider
00:26:19than the morning assembly, and the front
00:26:23was not as far as it seemed, for before
00:26:26the child reached it, it had already reached him. Today, after ten
00:26:30years of war, I think that if a child, meaning he was seven
00:26:34years old, joined, meaning he was taught these
00:26:36ideas and these ideas were planted in him from
00:26:40the age of seven, today he is
00:26:43the front fighting fiercely, believing that what he is doing is
00:26:47right, meaning he believes that what he is doing is the religion that Muhammad
00:26:50(peace be upon him) brought, because these militias
00:26:54have changed all the religious
00:26:57ideas within the curricula, they have changed
00:27:00all the principles and values, whether
00:27:03Islamic principles and values or the principles and values upon which the Republic
00:27:07of Yemen was founded, in the minds of these children. Today, these children constitute an army for
00:27:11the Houthi. From these materials that are,
00:27:14I mean, offered to students are the subject of Quranic
00:27:17Culture, the subject of Conflict,
00:27:21the subject of Fiqh, the subject of the Holy Quran,
00:27:24Tajweed. Then came the summer centers
00:27:27and turned into something like a third chapter,
00:27:30a chapter that gets closer to the world of weapons and does not content
00:27:35the book, but pushes him one
00:27:38step further, and the child that the Houthi militia
00:27:43does not ask much and sees the world only through the hole
00:27:46of battle and does not grow towards the future
00:27:50but towards the trench. And when the child's
00:27:53consciousness changes, it becomes easier to kidnap
00:27:56him from his future.
00:27:58The summer centers are the tool for
00:28:03the indoctrination carried out by the Houthi militia, and these
00:28:06centers were not limited to a specific
00:28:09group, but the Houthi militia came
00:28:12with its sectarian,
00:28:16racist baggage and imposed it on the entire society.
00:28:24unemployed people, housewives, all
00:28:27segments of society are forced
00:28:30to accept
00:28:32and
00:28:35embrace this curriculum that it presents, even though they are
00:28:38outdated ideas and ideas that do not belong to the era, nor
00:28:41to religion, nor to values, and do not belong
00:28:45to logic or knowledge at all. Yet, Yemenis are forced
00:28:48to accept these ideas. The summer
00:28:51centers, and almost they have, I mean, taken a long time, meaning
00:28:55months, and the Houthi is working on them
00:28:58relentlessly. I mean, he spends a lot on these
00:29:02summer centers because he is working to
00:29:05change the ideas and minds of children. He is building a complete
00:29:09army, I mean, from children. This army works
00:29:13to change their ideas so that they only have that
00:29:17Abdul-Malik al-Houthi is number one. We will not listen to anyone.
00:29:20We will not carry out anyone's orders, even if they are
00:29:24the parents. They will only carry out the words of Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, and we will not enter paradise except through him
00:29:28and his supporters.
00:29:28انصاره
00:29:40In the summer of 2024,
00:29:42the Houthi militia opened about 700 summer
00:29:46centers. But the more dangerous question
00:29:49is not how many children entered these centers, but how many
00:29:53children will leave them closer to the trenches
00:29:56and further from school. Our master and leader
00:29:59and patron, Sayyed al-Qaid al-Alam
00:30:02al-Mufda Abdul-Malik Badr
00:30:08on fighting. He trains to leave
00:30:11his childhood to see the world through the barrel
00:30:14of a gun, to deal with fear
00:30:18as if it were courage, and we will present the first, second
00:30:21and third, and with death as if it were an ordinary
00:30:24path.
00:30:28Camps were monitored, of course, even
00:30:30for children in many governorates, about 20
00:30:34camps were
00:30:38used to train these
00:30:41young children
00:30:44fighting and so on, then these children are pushed
00:30:47to go into the first ranks
00:30:50of battles. After four months, they told
00:30:54me, "We'll bring him for four days." I told them, "Okay." I promised that I wouldn't
00:30:57stop him. Indeed, I was at Wadi.
