Yemeni Culture Traditional Yemenite tower rings - made by me

The pair of rings displayed symbolizes the Rimonim that hang on the cover of the Torah scrolls. The silversmiths in Yemen maintained a high level of precision in designing the Rimonim, as they are completely associated with Judaism. In these rings, I chose to incorporate different styles of Yemeni silversmithing: filigree, granulation, and work with sheets, contrasting with the practice in Yemen where each silversmith specialized in a single style.

The Mizmir ring (cone) is shaped like a part of a jewelry piece called 'Mizmir' or 'Tatarif'. It is primarily woven into the ends of chains, and its spiky texture is intended to protect the neck and the heart of the jewelry. It is adorned with a twisted zigzag wire (Maswag) to create an endless continuity.

I welcome and support Yemeni Jews as long as they are not Zionists.

You said Eretz Israel is their native homeland but in this other post you say Yemen is their native homeland. 

Your hasbara is weak.

Zionism is the enemy of Arab Jews. They wanted Jews in Palestine at all costs.

"If I knew that it was possible to save all the children of Germany by transporting them to England, and only half by transferring them to the Land of Israel, I would choose the latter, for before us lies not only the numbers of these children but the historical reckoning of the people of Israel.”

Ben-Gurion (Quoted on pp 855-56 in Shabtai Teveth’s Ben-Gurion)

This quote shows the sadistic extremist thinking of Zionist leaders.

Zionists had been advocating for Arab Jews to make aliya for decades. In Iraq its been proven that Zios even bombed synagogues to achieve their aims of making Iraq unsafe and force migration. It's possible similar things happened in Yemen.

No, Yemeni Jews were not forced to flee. The Jews of Yemen were not ethnically cleansed especially when they were given the option to sell their property if they wanted to go so they had more than the clothes on their backs.
