Writer Zaid al-Shami says in an article we are heading for upcoming local and presidential elections and it is natural that the authority differs with the opposition and both criticize each other. Opposition chances of criticism maybe wider than those of the authority but that should not push the latter to overstep the red lines that harm security and higher interests of the country and social peace.

In all previous elections propaganda of the authority were launched against parties, leaderships and personalities, accusing them of terror and treason and that caused harm to Yemen's reputation and its interests. That put Yemen in the circle of accusation and instability and entailed the escape of the national capital in addition to abstention of others from investment in the country.

Today the election propaganda began relying on the same style away from truth and without observing the social peace. Regretfully, that was not confined to the ruling party's media but extended to the official media that are supposed to be independent.
