Another Middle East War Breaks Out: Saudis Begin Bombing Yemen, US Military Taking Action

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Update: *OBAMA AUTHORIZED LOGISTICAL AND INTELLIGENCE SUPPORT TO GULF, U.S. MILITARY TAKING MILITARY ACTION TO DEFEND SAUDI BORDER, TO DEFEND AGAINST HOUTHI VIOLENCE

 

John McCain & Lindsay Graham explain Obama's move...

U.S. Senators John McCain (R-AZ) and Lindsey Graham (R-SC) today released the following statement on Saudi Arabia leading an international coalition conducting air strikes against Iranian-backed separatists in Yemen:

 

Saudi Arabia and our Arab partners deserve our support as they seek to restore order in Yemen, which has collapsed into civil war.

 

We understand why our Saudi and other Arab partners felt compelled to take action. The prospect of radical groups like Al-Qaeda, as well as Iranian-backed militants, finding safe haven on the border of Saudi Arabia was more than our Arab partners could withstand. Their action also stems from their perception of America's disengagement from the region and absence of U.S. leadership.

 

A country that President Obama recently praised as a model for U.S. counterterrorism has now become a sectarian conflict and a regional proxy war that threatens to engulf the Middle East. What's worse, while our Arab partners conduct air strikes to halt the offensive of Iranian proxies in Yemen, the United States is conducting air strikes to support the offensive of Iranian proxies in Tikrit. This is as bizarre as it is misguided – another tragic case of leading from behind.

*  *  *

Earlier today we reported that, on very short notice, Saudi Arabia had moved heavy military equipment including artillery to areas near its border with Yemen, "raising the risk that the Middle East’s top oil power will be drawn into the worsening Yemeni conflict." In other words, Saudi Arabia was preparing for war.

Shortly thereafter, but before Yemen's president bravely fled the country over fears of the Houthi rebel advance, Yemen's foreign minister called for Arab military intervention against advancing Shiite rebels.

As we explicitly warned, "the conflict risked spiraling into a proxy war with Shi'ite Iran backing the Houthis, whose leaders adhere Shi'ite Islam, and Saudi Arabia and the other regional Sunni Muslim monarchies backing Hadi."

Moments ago all these warnings were borne out when Al-Arabiya reported that the latest middle-east war is now official after Saudi Arabia and Arab Gulf States had launched a bombing campaign against Yemen.

More details:

This is just the beginning:

and now the US is involved:

And tanks are crossing the border:

From Al-Arabiya:

Saudi Arabia’s Royal Air Force bombed the positions of Yemen’s Houthi militia, Al Arabiya News Channel reported early on Thursday. 

 

Arab Gulf states had announced that they have decided to “repel Houthi aggression” in neighboring Yemen, following a request from the country’s President Abedrabbo Mansour Hadi.

 

In their joint statement Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait said they "decided to repel Houthi militias, al-Qaeda and ISIS [Islamic State of Iraq and Syria] in the country.”

 

The Gulf states warned that the Houthi coup in Yemen represented a “major threat” to the region’s stability.

 

It also accused the Iranian-backed militia of conducting military drills on the border of Saudi Arabia, a leading member of the GCC, with “heavy weapons.”

 

In an apparent reference to Iran, the statement said the “Houthi militia is backed by regional powers in order for it be their base of influence.”

 

The Gulf states said they had monitored the situation and the Houthi coup in Yemen with “great pain” and accused the Shiite militia of failing to respond to warnings from the United Nations Security Council as well as the GCC.

 

The statement stressed that the Arab states had sought over the previous period to restore stability in Yemen, noting the last initiative to host peace talks under the auspices of the Gulf Cooperation Council.

As reported this morning, in a letter sent the U.N. Security Council and seen by Al Arabiya News, Hadi requested “immediate support for the legitimate authority with all means and necessary measures to protect Yemen and repel the aggression of the Houthi militia that is expected at any time on the city of Aden and the province of Taiz, Marib, al-Jouf [and] an-Baidah."

In his letter Hadi said such support was also needed to control “the missile capability that was looted” by the Houthi militias.

 

Hadi also told the Council that he had requested from the Arab Gulf states and the Arab League “immediate support with all means and necessary measures, including the military intervention to protect Yemen and its people from the ongoing Houthi aggression.”

To summarize: Saudi Arabia is now bombing a rebel force that has been armed by the US and is backed by Iran, even as the US is bombing an enemy of Iran in Iraq with the blessing of Saudi Arabia.

All in a day's work in the Middle East.

As for oil's reaction: after the algos initially appeared not to get the memo, they woke up...

The action has begun...

Full involvement by the Arab League will preclude US forces' use, except in intel.

These combined forces can carry out the fight, US forces need not be involved.

It would be best to kick Iran's ass out; I suspect Vlad may be doing a little payback for Ukraine, so the idiot neocons should realize they have been punked.

How about just get out, period?  I say make nice with Putin.  Sign an oil/gas deal and branch off the China pipeline and run steel to Alaska and south. 

Maybe for once we could keep Germany and Russia seperated by playing nice.  Side benny of keeping energy acquisition competitive for China without a "real dick move".  Who knows, maybe we could trade some refined oil/gas to Australia for gold and iron and start making things to compete with Germany.

FFS.  I'm running for President on that.  Oh, and America for Americans - we'll let the injuns stay too.

Steely Dan – Deacon Blues Lyrics
.
This is the day of the expanding man
That shape is my shade
There where I used to stand
It seems like only yesterday
I gazed through the glass
At ramblers, wild gamblers
That's all in the past

You call me a fool
You say it's a crazy scheme
This one's for real
I already bought the dream
So useless to ask me why
Throw a kiss and say goodbye
I'll make it this time
I'm ready to cross that fine line

[Chorus]
I'll learn to work the saxophone
I play just what I feel
Drink Scotch whiskey all night long
And die behind the wheel
They got a name for the winners in the world
And I want a name when I lose
They call Alabama the Crimson Tide
Call me Deacon Blues

My back to the wall
A victim of laughing chance
This is for me
The essence of true romance
Sharing the things we know and love
With those of my kind
Libations
Sensations
That stagger the mind

I crawl like a viper
Through these suburban streets
Make love to these women
Languid and bittersweet
I'll rise when the sun goes down
Cover every game in town
A world of my own
I'll make it my home sweet home

[Chorus]

This is the night of the expanding man
I take one last drag
As I approach the stand
I cried when I wrote this song
Sue me if I play too long
This brother is free
I'll be what I want to be.
chorus ....

"Black Friday"

When Black Friday comes
I'll stand down by the door
And catch the grey men when they
Dive from the fourteenth floor
When Black Friday comes
I'll collect everything I'm owed
And before my friends find out
I'll be on the road
When Black Friday falls you know it's got to be
Don't let it fall on me
When Black Friday comes
I'll fly down to Muswellbrook
Gonna strike all the big red words
From my little black book
Gonna do just what I please
Gonna wear no socks and shoes
With nothing to do but feed
All the kangaroos
When Black Friday comes I'll be on that hill
You know I will

When Black Friday comes
I'm gonna dig myself a hole
Gonna lay down in it 'til
I satisfy my soul
Gonna let the world pass by me
The Archbishop's gonna sanctify me
And if he don't come across
I'm gonna let it roll
When Black Friday comes
I'm gonna stake my claim
I'll guess I'll change my name

You'll only know what they want you to know

The television cannot lie
Controlling media with smokescreen eyes
Nuclear politicians picture show
The acting's lousy but the blind don't know

Open your eyes see the lies right in front of ya
Open your eyes

They scare us all with threats of war
So we forget just how bad things are
You taste the fear when you're all alone
They gonna git'cha when you're on your own

The silence of conspiracy
Slaughtered on the altar of apathy
You gotta wake up from your sleep
'Cause meek inherits earth six feet deep

Marvellous business war when you are selling arms to both sides. The US government gives weapons to Syrian rebels, for example, which is essentially a gift to the shareholders of the arms companies who supply the weapons because the US government bought the weapons in the first place. The Us government and corporations are just one giant wealth extracting machine that will keep running well after the oil is gone and metal is grinding on metal. This is when the mushroom cloud appears over Chicago or Raleigh or maybe even Washington DC. Imagine the coup, it'd be the greatest in human history, to drop a nuke on the entire US government. Man, would that ever keep some of the skeletons in the closet ever seeing the light of day.

How can you not thumbs up Steely Dan?

But still, how unfortunate that it's appropriate.

They coudnt start the war in Ukraine because of Germany & France.

So they have started it in Yemen- then Syria and Iran before encompassing others.

Maybe the the whole of the UAE will also go up in flames soon along with Qatar who have been funding ISIL.

"AMERICANS ARE THE MOST MISINFORMED PEOPLE IN THE WORLD"

They also have a bunch of media zombies that have no intention of telling citizens the truth.   Now we have Saudi Arabia attacking Yemen and Egypyt will be assisting them.  Be proud you Americans as you now have the whole region killing one another.  The hatred by the Middle east will surely be felt world wide.

However, don't worry because Prime Minister (The puppet) Harper (CANADA) is on his way with 6 airplanes. 

These wars will last for many years and cost billions.  The USA and their friends will one day be considered criminals and will have to answer to it.  What a legacy we leave for the youth of this world.

I'm a Canadian living in Canada and I don't have a prime minister.  I didn't vote for him and don't recognize him.  He sold Canada out to Washington.

I will tell him that to his face if I ever see him.

I guess I missed the part where the Houthi attacked Saudi Arabia, maybe this is just a preemptive thing.

So are we going to give support to AL-Qeada because I think they are anti Houthi?

Do the Saudis realize that this might be the beginning of the splitting up of Saudi Arabia as depicted on the US Military map of the future middle east which shows Yemen expanding into SA? 

http://www.globalresearch.ca/plans-for-redrawing-the-middle-east-the-pro...

Are we really their friend or are we facilitating this border change?

Could the Zionists be supporting the Houthi covertly to cause a distraction for the expansion of greater Israel?

It used to be that a new war would get 600+ ZH comments no problem, but we're kind of glutted on new wars now by this stage of the Obama administration, hardly worth noticing one more war at this point I guess.

Saudi Arabia and our Arab partners deserve our support as they seek to restore order in Yemen, which has collapsed into civil war.

Where is Shakespeare when you need him? He did caricatures of the elite so well. Where are the playwrights today who could satirize a fem Graham, a bloodlusting toddling old McCain, an inept stumbling Obama, the invisible hand of our oil masters? My God, we need to hoist these people into the public light as the fools hey are.

Forget Shakespeare.

Lets get on with the hoisting.

On to a scaffold with ropes around their collective necks.

Millions of people will volunteer for the privilege of driving away the cart.

And driving stakes through their hearts to ensure they are really dead - evil that they are.

Nearly all the human beans in Yemen take multiple daily doses of a drug that renders them incoherent pretty much all day.  A "war" with yemen is on a par with a mud wrestling match between Jerrold Nadler and Tweety Bird.

Funny how the Saudis fight an Israeli-US style war with heavy weapons and aircraft against footsoldiers in jeeps. It is a sure sign of forces fearful of losing manpower because to lose manpower weakens the regime whether Israel or US or Saudi Arabia.

This is why insurgency will never be defeated and will spread to Nigeria and Kenya as the US looks on and wonders what hi-tech weapon can defeat the rag tag militias hiding in the general populace. It is real Imperial Stormtrooper stuff with Peter Cushing advising the Pentagon

The hijackers in the September 11 attacks were 19 men affiliated with al-Qaeda, and 15 of the 19 were citizens of Saudi Arabia.
