despite of its occasional instability and at the confluence
of East and West, these days is going through one of the worst political
crises and unrests in recent decades. Some analysts consider
what happening in Yemen, a competition or a sense “Cold War”
between Iran and Saudi Arabia. In this context, the question that
arises according to Aggressive Realism Theory is that “what’s
the relationship between the aggressive attitude of Saudi Arabia
towards the developments in Yemen and Islamic Republic of
Iran’s regional role?” In response to this question, the hypothesis
that puts to the test will be: “Saudi Arabia’s behavior on Yemen’s
developments, in four levels of analysis [that is] international,
regional, sub-regional and bilateral, is affected by the threat of
Iran’s regional hegemony of the maturing of the Shiite thought in
these areas.” The findings suggest that what lead Yemen into civil
war, is competence of Sunni Saudi Arabia with Shi’ite Iran and
its thread for maintaining and expanding influence and control as
the key player in the region. But, Yemen’s complex crisis rooted
in politics, ethnicity and tribalism in this country, which has the
potential to inject more tension to bilateral relations of the major
oil producers in the Middle East, Iran and Saudi Arabia.
