This should come as no surprise. Unless and until someone has the ‘nads to smack the living sh*t out of those Persian pricks, there is going to be nothing but trouble in that region.

The iranians are up to their usual cat’s paw routine. Can’t say I feel sorry for the saudis.

I'm well familiar with the area. Lived a couple of hours away from Yemen. The one road we used to take to the Red Sea took us within a half hour of the Saudi-Yemen border. At the market there we would see the “flower people”, a local tribe. They dressed different from the Saudis and Yemenis. Wore a band of flowers around their head. The Saudis I talked to were afraid of them as they said the flower people will mess you up with their knives.

The story went that back in the mid 90s, there was a treaty where the Saudis had to return a large amount of the border territory once owned by Yemen. Oil was found there so the Saudis didn't give it back. Yemen tried to take it and got their clocks cleaned. Yemen makes a move every so often to grab it back and loses.

Is this all a leak to get that Saudis angry (angrier) with the Iranians, to boost chances of their cooperation, or at least lack of opposition to an Israeli strike on Iran?

This is the beginning of the coming Iran-Saudi arabia conflcit which I think will go down this summer.

Iran has been very “smart” to position themselves on Saudi’s flank, far away from Iran, but close enough to foment and stir up what the Hothni’s are doing.

I think it was 7 or 8 months ago when they did this with their naval exercises. Instead of just “monitoring”, US interests should have not allowed them in the area.

The action is the equivalent of placing the severed head of a race horse in King Fahad’s bed.

The question is will there be direct action by the Saudi special forces in Iran? One can only wonder how much GCC money was spent on the recent elections and demonstrations in Iran
