Senior U.S. officials pressed Saudi leaders for fear of making matters worse

Senior U.S. officials pressed Saudi leaders in a series of messages to quickly wrap up their air campaign in Yemen for fear of making matters worse, people familiar with the matter said, before Riyadh declared Tuesday it was ending the offensive.

Yet on Wednesday, Saudi airstrikes resumed in several parts of the country after Iranian-linked Houthi militants took over a military brigade in the southern city of Taiz, provincial security officials said. There was no sign of peace talks, though the Saudis had said they were shifting to a mostly political phase of their effort to respond to the chaos in the impoverished Arab country on its southern border.

Saudi Ambassador to the U.S. Adel al-Jubeir said his country would continue to use force in response to Houthi aggression.

“When the Houthis or their allies make aggressive moves, there will be a response,” he said. “The decision to calm matters now rests entirely with them.”

>"Next thing you know, he’ll be showing evidence of Sufi leanings."

His REAL father and mother were actually members of the Subud cult, (a splinter off the Sufi branch) from Indonesia.

But of course gullible blacks wouldn't buy his being black with a name like Sumohadiwidjojo.

He's neither Sunni, nor Shiaa, nor Sufi. He's the slime's super hero savior. He's trying to unite the heads of the beast into a single caliphate.

BTW the Subud cult has HQ's in Jakarta, Hawaii. and Chicago.

PPS Fuddy was also a Subud member till we were informed of her demise on TV.

You really should NOT believe %99.99 of ANYTHING he says!

Who ya gonna believe, Your lying eyes or Hussein?

Hoosier Daddy????

The “US” Congress and the “US” Court would not care
if their Indonesian King
had no documentation, and what he did have
was faked, fraud, and full of Pelosi’s perjury.

They would not care if their King was destroying
America and its allies, or importing incurable
diseases, as long as THEY remained EXEMPT
and got to keep their payoffs.

Hey it's still the finest form of representation that Saudi oil money can buy.

God help the United janissaries of the house of sod.

Still think he’s not a Muslim?

No.

Unfortunately, this sounds a lot like Obama has turned the US Navy into an escort service for the Iranian terrorist resupply convoy and to keep the Saudis from messing up his plans to anoint the Iranians as the hegemon of the Middle East.

'Fear' being the operative word here. Maybe they're afraid that ISIS won't have the required 'safe space.'

...and you better believe we “escorted” the Iranian ships so the Saudis wouldn’t take them out. Obama is literally abetting the enemy...more amazing, the Republicans sit back and watch this like it is some form of entertainment.

he and his father were most definitely not Hoosiers

In a weird sort of way, I agree with you. (no insult intended)

It does seem that the U. S. and the other entities are moving in the same direction.

Quite strange.

Well, duh. Jarrett is Iranian. Get over it.

I certainly have no use for valjar. But your statement is incorrect. She was born in Iran, that's true. But her parents were both Americans, her father a Doctor and her mother a teacher.

[The_Media_never_lie]

Yes, it would make matters worse for Iran.

Who’s the guy on the left. Dead ringer for Barry as far as looks.
