If SA forgets to set the parking brakes on their tanks once they’ve completed the invasion, they may just end up owning Yemen outright.

... negotiations for power-sharing ...

Hopefully this is just a ploy and not a plan.

I’ve known a few Saudis. Picturing them in combat is difficult.

There is certainly A LOT of pro-Houthi activity on Twitter today. Lot’s of anti-US chatter coming from pro-Iranian a*holes all over the world on this one.

GOOD.

This is not our fight. We should not be involved.
It’s religious civil war among Muslims

Kinda reminds me of Sarajevo circa 1914, and then later circa 1938 Germany put together.

Kinda makes me think WWIII has already started.

The Sunni coalition is Saudi Airpower and Money, Egyptian Armor and men...and Pakistani Nukes?

Is that how this is emerging?

If it holds together, formidable.

Iran would do well to back the eff off.

aim is not to occupy Yemen but to weaken the Houthis and their allies until they enter negotiations for power-sharing

Just kill them all, please

This could be the unravelling of Saudi Arabia. Watch the Kingdom be seduced by the hate of terrorists against America and all muslims turn on us together.

About time the people who live there do the work. Don’t know why they would want some “power sharing” though, getting rid of the trouble makers all together would be nice.
