Saudi Arabia Orders Its National Guard To Enter Yemen War
Over the better part of the past month, the only entities actively involved in the proxy war in Yemen against the local Houthi rebel force have been air force units, mostly under Saudi command as part of Operation "Decisive Storm." Which probably explains why there has been little if any progress to note in pushing back said rebellion which, armed heavily thanks to the US government, has successfully managed to push the current president into an indefinite exile.
That changed hours ago, when Saudi Arabia's King Salman ordered the Saudi Arabian National Guard, widely regarded as the kingdom's best equipped military ground force, to take part in Riyadh's campaign against Iran-allied Houthi rebels in Yemen.
As Reuters notes, "military operations in the campaign have so far been carried out by the Royal Saudi Air Force and the Royal Saudi Land Forces, which answer to the Defense Ministry. The national guard is a separate military structure run by its own ministry."
Which means that what has been an airborne war until now is about to become a land war.
But it will hardly stop there: recall that two weeks ago we reported that in a sign of support for the Houthis, Iran had dispatched the 34th fleet of the Iranian Navy has left for the Gulf of Aden and Bab al-Mandab Strait.
And, as we predicted, the US promptly retaliated with a naval dispatch of its own, and as was reported yesterday, "U.S. Navy officials say the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is steaming toward the waters off Yemen and will join other American ships prepared to intercept any Iranian vessels carrying weapons to the Houthi (HOO'-thee) rebels fighting in Yemen."
That, or other Iran ships just generally in the vicinity.
And with US support in the Red Sea which will soon migrate north toward the true objective of this latest middle east conflict, Syria, one can be certain that Russia will not be far behind.
Especially if, as we are learning today, what was until recently "only" an air war is about to become a land war, likely one with naval reinforcements from all sides.

Good, Fight you own damn wars!...
oh well, nothing we can't print our way out of.
Local government officials (municipalities) gathering now in Athens are saying they will not obey Central Government and give their funds (2 billion euros) to the Central Bank of Greece to pay IMF and the rest of the crew ... the money is needed to pay the salaries .... will see what's next
Good. The IMF is a Moral Fail. Those making decisions should be charged with their CRIMES.
i dont see how can they do it ... even if they pay IMF this time, they will be in the same place a couple of months from now. At the same time, ECB has closed all lines cutting off the lines to banks and central bank... it is like slaughtering time, no way to move just ahead even if you know what is waiting for you beyond that door...
If they pay the IMF this time it will mean that they are a little more in debt ,and that is all that matters.
Next the Quds forces will be deployed by Iran and World War 111 will start...while we're considering a $50 billion bribe and end of sanction to Iran in exchange for their 'promise' not to build nukes. What kind of dumb fuckers do we have in our administration? Are they that desparat to appease a lunatic regime? All this will do is reward bad behavior and give them more money to buy arms and broaden the war in the mideast. Fuck! Does Obama have a fucking clue or is he just a myopic turdball?
What?
What kind of dumb fuck supports sanctions aimed at extracting 'promises' of any kind from any nation, who haven't attacked anyone else?
What kind of dumb fuckers do we have in our country?
ALL this 'lunacy' is a DIRECT result of 1 failed American foreign policy blunder after another..
There are 2-3 lunitic nations out there, Iran isn't even in the top ten...
Saudi National Guard on parade!

Democratic uprising in Saudi Arabia to topple the king?
Teddy would be proud.
... or would he?
So all you folks who are supportive of Iran don't believe they have sponsored terrorism? You don't think they will follow through on their threats to wipe Israel off the map or 'Death to America'? In light of their involvement with Hamas and what's happening in the mideast right now I take those threats seriously.
Iran isn't a threat to anyone. That's just the narrative spewed by Israel, the MSM (and apparently this Tyler...)
"...But it will hardly stop there: recall that two weeks ago we reported that in a sign of support for the Houthis, Iran had dispatched the 34th fleet of the Iranian Navy has left [sic] for the Gulf of Aden and Bab al-Mandab Strait..."
Nothing to do with the Houthis, just like the 33 other Iranian task fleets depolyed to the exact same place for almost the last decade. Everyone has their supposed 'anti-piracy' fleets bobbing around in the Gulf of Aden all the time non-stop to protect their shipping, just like Iran. They have to be rotated out every so often. Iran simply rotated their 33rd fleet for their 34th fleet right on schedule. Nothing changed because of the situation in Yemen. Each 'fleet' is a cruiser and some kind of helicopter landing ship. Total: two insignificant little warships.
"...And, as we predicted, the US promptly retaliated with a naval dispatch of its own, and as was reported yesterday, "U.S. Navy officials say the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is steaming toward the waters off Yemen
They neither retaliated nor reacted. In fact, they're doing the exact same thing the Iranian navy is doing: rotating the existing Persian Gulf carrier group (Carl Vinson) with the Roosevelt..
They either want to make sure the Vinson goes down during a false flag (attributed to Iran) or they intend to bomb the crap out of something from their ultimate station in the Persian Gulf. Maybe both. Their Persian Gulf position will put them right off the shores of Iran, allowing for a plausable 'Iran sank us with a Fateh-110' false-flag. The navy can't suffer another embarrassing situation like they did with the Liberty. If they use the Vinson in a false-flag, it HAS to go down immediately and there can't be any survivors. No Iranian action necessary - the U.S. probably has the Vinson wired for demo or has a backpack nuke stowed away on board. They can blow it at will and then supply MSM-digestable 'evidence' that it was Iran. Israel is absolutely furious at the U.S. for not starting the war with Iran yet so the Israeli-firster U.S. powers will resort to desperate measures. It has to be something so serious that Obama can't or won't intervene.
"...and will join other American ships prepared to intercept any Iranian vessels carrying weapons to the Houthi (HOO'-thee) rebels fighting in Yemen."..."
It's against international martime law to stop and search a ship without the consent of the other ship - the U.S. Navy had no legal authority to do so. The U.N. Security Council resolution last week created an excuse for the Navy to go on a fishing exedition by randomly stopping Iranian ships to look for arms. In fact, it is meant to provoke the Iranians to set them up for the false flag.
"...And with US support in the Red Sea which will soon migrate north toward the true objective of this latest middle east conflict, Syria, one can be certain that Russia will not be far behind..."
Just like all the other times Russia intervened in Syria? Putin supports Assad and Syria, but won't start WWIII over it. Russia isn't going to do anything when the U.S. puts ground troops in Syria to take out Assad. And the 'true objective' is and always will be Iran. Iraq and Syria are nothing but gateways to attack Iran, although the oil and gas pipeline routes would be nice.
"...Especially if, as we are learning today, what was until recently "only" an air war is about to become a land war, likely one with naval reinforcements from all sides..."
War? The objective in Yemen is ethnic cleansing - kill or drive out as many Zaidi Shia as possible. The bombing was designed to take out the civilian infrastructure and create a humanitarian crisis - eliminating the water supply and food distribution. Bombing consumer gas/petrol stations eliminates transport. Blocking Yemeni ports ensures no food or medical supplys get into Yemen.
The Saudis will throw a few token ground troops in for now, but not to any great degree. The point for the Saudis and ZATO is to bleed Yemen nearly to death by thirst, starvation and disease over a period of months. Serious troop insertions will only happen when the couple-of-million Yemeni dead goal is reached. By then, Saudi/U.S. can trot out the 'humanitarian crisis' excuse (they created) to invade Yemen with serious numbers of ground troops. The U.N. might try to elbow in on the action to lend a little credibility to their useless organization and flood Yemen with Blue Helmets.
[Edit: Changed to reflect CVN-70 Carl Vinson was relieved by CVN-71 Theodore Roosevelt. The Vinson is reportedly out of the 5th Fleet's Area of Operations. I mistakenly said CVN John Stennis was the one relieving the Roosevelt in the Gulf of Oman - the Stennis is in San Diego]
This is from the Navy re Roosevelt:

Anyone with nuclear material poses a potential strategic threat to any country. At Qom, Iran can produce 20% enriched nuclear material. That'll do just fine for a dirty bomb. People don't realize that the hard part is enriching to 3%. Once you've broken that barrier, 20% comes quickly. From there, 90% is a snap, but the handling protocols are much more stringent (drop some material and even if it doesn't explode, you'll get pummeled with gamma radiation). No one outside the AEOI knows whether they have enriched to a level that could be triggered by a PIT.
Anyway, anyone who thinks Iran poses no threat is completely and utterly full of shit. Now, does that in and of itself mean we should intervene? No.
"...At Qom, Iran can produce 20% enriched nuclear material. That'll do just fine for a dirty bomb..."
And a dirty bomb?? Oh, Jesus - that's the weakest one yet. Saudi Arabia just used a depleted uranium DIME bomb in Western Saana at Fag Atan to (supposedly) take out a Houthi Scud stash. 10kg of 1% depleted uranium has the same amount of U-235 as a half-kg of 20% enriched urainium. You don't need to enrich to 20% for a dirty bomb, you just buy DIME bombs from the U.S. or Israel.
"...Once you've broken that barrier, 20% comes quickly. From there, 90% is a snap..."
A snap?? That's what the psychopathic Nettanyahu keeps claiming, but that's proven to be a lie for what... ten years now?
Iran has no intention of attacking anyone with any WMDs either offensively or defensively because it would result in Iran's destruction. Even a child understands that - why doesn't Israel? They're simply not going to do it BECAUSE it ensures their destruction. Israel is the one with a nuclear Sampson option, not Iran. Israel has nuclear-tipped cruise missiles on subs off the coast of Iran right now, don't they?
And I could care less about the rants of some obscure Iranian politician OR the crazy, past rants of the Ayatollah about the destruction of Israel. That's not proof of anything but politician crazy talk. That's like listening to John McCain's rants and somehow claiming they're official policy of the United States.
"...Anyway, anyone who thinks Iran poses no threat is completely and utterly full of shit..."
How convenient - lumping Nettanyahu's paranoia in with some collective notion of threat to the global community. The question of Iran's imaginary threat to Israel has absolutely nothing to do with Iran's actual threat to the U.S. (or Norway or Vanuatu or the rest of the planet, for that matter). Any known nuclear-armed facist state is a threat - Israel is close to the top of that list. Iran isn't even a credible 'maybe' on that list - except in Western MSM.
Thanks for your input.
You're way too emotional to make a coherent argument. You don't understand the process of uranium enrichment, for starters. Unfortunately, a lack of expertise in nuclear engineering doesn't stop guys like you from posting. I'll just end it at that.
All IAEA inspections found no diversion of nuclear materials from permitted use under the the non proliferation agreement. Furthermore, all US intel agencies stated twice in recent years that Iran did not have a nuclear weapons program and they stated this with a high degree of confidence. But clearly you know better. Asshole.
What they say and what they know to be true are two different animals. But hey, what do I know. I'm just a random ZH poster.
You have provided us no knowledge, only wild speculation to justify your irrational fears, or am I missing something?
Wild speculation. Irrational fears. Sorry, my post has none of that. If you want emotional pseudo-science, look no further than Paveway's post. It's your choice, I frankly don't give damn.
Both quotes are the wildly retarded speculations of mary's frightened little lamb. Please provide evidence to support your feeling Iran poses a threat. I'll provide the evidence you are an idiot with a hurt butt:

As long as givt workers, cops and the army get paid in Greece - life is good. the citizens get screwed.
they're not though.....we've got heavy spec ops and mercs within their ground troops so don't think those troops are theirs.......
elites must want a new place to land and live.
And they have Putin's assistance as well. Putin gave his consent for the sanctions against the rebels in Yemen. Thus cutting off the flow of supplies, ammunition (both small arms and heavy) and creating a situation where the rebels will become depleated and vulnerable.
Well played again Putin. Maybe you are the chess player, only you are so coy they do not see you only pretend to play against the NWO when you are playing against those who support you or see some hope for the take over to be stopped due to you.
You're wrong ! Russia abstained on that one. It only agreed initially with a general embargo (applicable to all sides), which was not included in the final resolution. Hence the abstention...
You need to understand how the UN SC works. You can agree and vote yes, you can disagree and vote no which stops the action from occuring or you can abstain which means you have allowed the action to be approved and to occur (but you get to play politics and try to deny accountability).
All Putin had to do is to vote NO. Simply push a button. The rebels were already engaged and the Saudis were already geared up to try to overpower the rebels with the assistance of the West. But no, Putin abstained which is the same as giving consent. By simply voting NO there would be no UN embargo on supplies to the rebels. In other words Putin was on board and in bed with the West again, or he is too afraid of upsetting the West to even push a button and vote NO. (Is that the scary Putin people post about?)
But what if the Rebel Alliance finds a weakness in our Deathstar and exploits it?????!!!!!!
duh russia wasn't interested ane neither Iran because they are fighting regional war against alciada . Hoothi rebels are former president loyalists
Good, Fight you own damn wars!...
I fully agree with you 1000yrdstare, but you know what the answer will be? "Good, pump your own oil!"
Shale?...........Haha
That is correct!, we should have been off of that teet in the 70's...good thing we created the dept. of energy, I expect them to make us independent anyday now...(sarc needed?)
"Good, Fight you own damn wars!..."
@ 1000 yardstare, couldnt have said it better myself
Put down your KoolAid cup and don't be so naive.
The only reason the House of Saud remains in power is due to the deal they cut with Nixon/ Kissenger in the early 70's in exchange for the USD being established as the global Petrodollar for oil sales.
Without gold behind the USD it needed something to support it lest it became worthless. What better than Saudi oil and the U.S. military's Department of Attack rather than gold.
Mutual exchange of protection. Mutual dependence.
The U.S. made this war their war long ago. Just like so many others.
There's no such thing as a free lunch, no matter how exceptional you think you are.
When you sell your soul to the devil you keep dancing to his tune...
Same as it ever was.
Well that explains this http://bloomberg.econoday.com/byshoweventfull.asp?fid=466563&cust=bloomberg-us&year=2015&lid=0&prev=/byweek.asp#top
A US-supported invasion of yet another nation, who would have thunk it?
House of Saud is scared. i luv it. They hear the footsteps of doom.
Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of goat-molesters.
Methinks that things are not so good with them calling out their National (Praetorian) Guard.
I will take 30 to 60 year old miners and farmers with 60 year old recoiless rifles who are ethnic Russians in the Eastern Ukraine anytime over these clowns. They would get these Saudi clowns in another cauldron (surrounded). My guess it we will see it yet again in the Ukraine. DPR PM Zakarchenko said there will be no Minsk 3 this time.
Miners do not give a shit and they have no fear.
Not enough killing to satisfy the Saudis and their masters? Pakistan refused to do the killing for the Saudis in Yemen and so the National Guard is called up:
Yemen violence kills 944, injures 3,487: WHOThe violence raging in Yemen since late March has killed 944 people and injured 3,487 as of April 17, the World Health Organization said Tuesday (Apr 21).
The UN health agency said the numbers came from health facilities in Yemen, but the true figures are likely higher since many people are not making it to hospitals for treatment.
http://www.channelnewsasia.com/news/world/yemen-violence-kills-944/17989...
Shiite eschatology - when the King of Saud dies, it's on. Looks like they are doing everything they can (Iranians) to make this come true.
Next up, Operation Defecation Storm
+100 And the clueless US public will never see it coming.
...and AQAP wins.
The House of Saud can't seem to get its dick into the blender fast enough.
The House of Saud (omy) cannot get in and help AQAP expand fast enough.
To export its internal strife elsewhere, wonder who they learned that model from. Though the moment in future is not so distant when we see House of Saud crumbling, which will set off further chain reaction among US 'allies' in the region.
Ouch! That laugh hurt!
We need a short war to sink a few US ships, tap Israel on the nose, end ISIS, smack around some US support terrorists, arrest some CIA spies, bombard the house of Saud, and Ukraine gov will start running to Israel... then the west will toss out the neo cons as the markets crash and flush out. It will be good. Put USA in it's place - a declining power. US people will then demand withdrawl of forces.
Enough with the Stoopid Storm names
I think Saudi Arabia wants a better sea port....
They will forever be known as the Houthi (HOO'-thee).
.....think of it this way ...if nukes go off for any reason the us is toast on a stick so is the RED SEA....bank on it.
The Iran ships story may be bullshit.
Not bullshit, but more bullshit:
George Soros’ son builds a PAC for Jewish voters
http://govtslaves.info/george-soros-son-builds-a-pac-for-jewish-voters/
Amazing how 2.5% of the population gets so many stories and pacs for their "votes".
Look what a shit show the Syrian war is. My guess is that the House of Saud won't want a protracted engagement (but will get one anyway).
Besides, the is probably the longest period on record where Arabs haven't been been engaged in internecine, or tribal warfare. Don't count on rational, methodical or decisive logistics because this whole region is inshallah territory.
Would like to point out:
The insurgents in Syria are well supported, financed, supplied and air supported by Israel, US, Saudis and the West overall. And the Syrian govt is faced with sanctions and other actions.
In this case the rebels are faced with sanctions, supplies of weapons have been cut off, the air belonds to their enemy, ecomonic sanctions will occur. And within their country there is a large area that belongs to al cia da. Those will be, and are being, supplied and supported by air when they attack the rebels or when they serve to cut off the movement of food and supplies.
And Putin has given his consent for the rebels to be destroyed by the UN.
I wish the rebels well but their organizational back can be broken and they they will be reduced to local covert actions. That is unless once broken the West does not give the native al cia da clans directions to perform religious genocide and push the people of the rebels into the ground. Yes it would drag out but the intensity from the rebels would be greatly reduced.
There is no current Yemen president... his term expired in Feb.
Yeh what happens if/when China pokes the dragons tail out of the sand in Pakistan?
You got a US stand off with Iran, China and Russia. Not cool, nothing good will come of this, NOTHING GOOD..
Bingo. China is the wild card here. Curiously quiet, too.
The Saudis actually armed their military? They're so afraid of a coup that they never arm their own troops. Unless of course they're sending them over the boarder. Guaranteed this comes back to hurt them.
Hope they've improved a lot since I worked with them on their microwave coms
networks.They came to work sometimes ,Ins'allah, back then..
Saudi Arabian National Guard (SANG) are well funded and equiped "elite" troops trained formerly by the US. More under direct control of the Royal Family.
Maybe Donetsk and Lugansk (DPR and LPR) can send about 50 of their (ethnic Russian) miners and farmers there to kick the Saudi Praetorian Guards asses.
Those ethnic Russian miners are like Honey Badgers - they don't give a shit.

Elite like Saddam's Republican Guard?
"trained by the US" ... first sign of incompetence as a military unit.
All in the plan to set the tempo for Hitlery. "What difference does it make?"...
I have several stupid questions:
1) What the 5th fleet is doing inside Kazakhstan's steppe etc.? What the other fleets are doing in the international waters and/or countries? Fishing?..
2) How long ago europeon part of Russia has became 'Asia'?
3) Where is Antarctica?
4) And, finally, who did take my spices???

Wait until the coffins start arriving home in SA. Died fighting muslims. Not going to go over well.
How many of those Saud family princes (3000) are front line?
You must be referring to the 12th Armored Diamond encrusted Maybach division. Or maybe the elite 7th Brigade of Spoiled Saudi brats who talk to their mothers via Bluetooth earpieces on their solid gold iPhone 6s.
This should be interesting. What has the Saudi military conquered besides Mayfair London?
They took Bayswater without losing a man.
What about Chelsea/Chelski? Did they lose that to the dual shitizens oligrachs pretending to be real Russians?
Saint Johns Wood?
The temple of cricket ?
Shirley you jest.

The few Saudi's that will fight on the ground are in Iraq and Syria, and it is impossible to pull them off that line. They'll have to import them from Pakistan, Afghanistan and southern Soviet Union countries.

The House of Saud seems to be on the ropes, it is sending down to Yemen the guys who guard the ruling class! In other words the elite Praetorian guard
The Saudis are finished. I bet they wish they didn't throw fellow Sunni Saddam Hussein under the bus now that they can see the writing on the wall, huh? Karma, bitchez! Saddam was the only one fighting and holding back the Iranian Shia and the Saudi scumbags didn't even have the decency to loan him money at a lower rate.
so are we entering the war on Saudis side or our news friends Iran? What could possible go wrong. Does Obama have some kind of wish to engulf the world in war?
Obama is a puppet.
A few people including Dr. Jim Willie said the USA will throw the Saudis under the bus for Iran.
Why? My guess is the Saudis oil fields are dying rapidly. Ghawar is just about done. Also Willie said the Americans and British have been stealing all the Saudi gold stored in London/UK.
For SodomyArabia substitute USSA,UK&Israehell.
You know the situation is serious when the Saudis start putting their own bullet-stoppers on the line.

What is so insane is you hear these psychos in Zato like General breedhate and the other morons like Kerry or Klintoon then you hear Putin or Hezbolah. The "bad" guys not rational and calm while kerry and the rest sound like Goebbels.
I forget if it was Pepe Escobar, Jim Willie or someone else who said much of the Saudi armed forces are Yemeni tribal backgrounds or Shia. The House of Saud has very few friends and if their oil fields are dying then they may have even fewer.
The USSA/NWO and Big Oil may not be experts on anything except being evil but they know oil fields. if Ghawar is dying or cleose to death - they know it and will hard pivot to Iran.
Freddie the non-standing inbreds of Saudi royalty could muster a great mutant army. . . or at least be useful to clear the landmines.
what are the odds of an EMP attack over Yemen in the next month? 100%
Have they turned off the cell towers yet?
Fumigation eminent
The odds are about 0%
An EMP over Yemen would accomplish NOTHING.
The country is already back in dark or stone ages depending on where exactly you go.
Lately, I have come to the belief that SA figures they only have a couple more years of retaining control of the country and they are going to pump as much as they can as soon as they can.
TO hell with saving for the future, Get it now, as much as they can before they lose control of the country.

"Sixty Days Next Year"
You'll have to excuse me, but I don't usually keep a diary. These events began before I understood what was happening, and where it was all headed. It was only later, after it was all going on, that I thought that maybe I should be keeping some sort of record--as if no one else was. We live in The Information Age, or did. Now it's just The Dim Ages. Welcome to my world.
June 14
It all started (for me) with just a small item on an Internet news page, "Trouble in the Kingdom". I thought they were talking about Disney World (the Magic Kingdom) so I clicked on it. Turns out they were talking about "the repercussions of curtailed social services in Saudi Arabia". (Insert a big yawning noise here.) So their kids don't get free day care? Big whoop. I scanned the article for any mention of M. Mouse and then went on with my life. My mistake. No biggie. Really.
June 15
Yesterday's headlines are still today's news? I guess those folks in the sand are really upset about something--it was in all the papers today. Sounds like the Saudi government is in for a tough time trying to rein in a runaway budget--and the locals don't like it one bit. Now their capital (Riyadh?) is a mess with people getting ugly in the streets. Yeah, yeah, yeah, no more subsidized housing. Deal with it, people. Get a job.
June 16
I saw the news today, oh boy. Three Saudi cities are up in flames, people with big guns are going nuts, and everyone that can find a plane is leaving that country in one big hurry. It's like Saigon in a sand box. (Not that I actually remember Saigon.) Local news guys are talking about what it means to us--and our oil. Maybe I'd better go fill up the car before everyone else does. I hate being stuck in long lines.
<SNIP>
With this kind of headline - the market sells oil?
my kosher brudders already do not frets the jewish house of saud will send the army in. mainly muslim paki musslem pimp egyptian filthy traitorious dog turk a few qatari straggler the paki in the main will do the dyin funny thing is much of the saud army are made up of yemeni ohh dear a non jewish sophies choice or maybe not if i remembered correctly did not the rabbi pay arabs to build that nazi wall in palestine arab killing arab more normalcy oded yinon jewish sport

Heh, heh... Good luck finding Yemeni "targets"... When Pershing enter Mexico we just blend into the countryside, ha!
BTW - Whatever happen with US Navy rushing to "intercept" Iranian ships?
VERY informative article on the subject:
How the U.S. Contributed to Yemen’s Crisis
TND Guest Contributor: Professor Stephen Zunes
http://thenewsdoctors.com/?p=464631
Saudi Arabia calling out its "elite national guards" on Iran supported rebels in Yemen?!!
How's that Iran has done a much better job training the rebels than the well-funded USSA?
Excuse me would this be the same Saudi National Guard ( or the decenedents thereof) that broke an ran when the Iraqi army attacked into Kuwait in 1990?
Those fucking cowards? Oh ok just checking. Thanks. Elite huh elite as in few of or one of a kind? Like a Saudi soldier that will stand his ground talk about an army of one.
