Saudi Arabia uses fighter jets against Yemeni Houthi rebels. Both Yemen & Saudi Arabia accuse Iran of arming the rebels. Why did Arab satellites carriers drop Iranian Al Alam TV? And will the war of proxies lead to a confrontation between Saudi Arabia and Iran ?
This is Lawrence of Arabia-style tribalism with bombers and Kalashnikovs, except it’s Arab on Persian this time not Arab on Arab. If there was no oil over there & we weren’t hooked on it no one would care about these Sunni-Shi’a spats.
Drill in ANWR already.
