Just hours after the Saudi Foreign Ministry announced a speculative notion for a five day “humanitarian pause” in Yemen, Saudi military spokesmen insisted that the attacks would continue and escalate irrespective of any decision to allow humanitarian aid into the country.
“Coalition forces will deliver a harsh response starting this moment,” declared Saudi spokesman Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asseri, adding that the Houthis would “pay the price” for resisting, and that all options are on the table.
The Saudi “pause” never seemed liable to happen anyhow, as the foreign ministry conditioned it on the Houthis “disarming,” and the military has since made it clear they’re not going to pause anything at any rate.
The empty offer seems to have been done entirely for the sake of Secretary of State John Kerry, who wants to show that there is some seriousness being given to the massive civilian death toll of the Saudi war, which the US is loudly backing, and to calm Russian-led calls for an outright ceasefire to end the killing.
Wealth = Power = Freedom
And what is wrong with that? For is not life all about maximizing pleasure, and does not war gain for the highest achievers the glory of plunder?
But then, instant pleasure is the reverse of permanent happiness, as happiness is the memories we cherish of the good that we do for others and it lasts a lifetime. Whereas, pleasure is nothing we can remember as it be only an emotion, just electric impulses that come from nerve endings.
The so-called Custodian of the Two Holy Places has never fired a shot in defense of the brother Palestinians, but have no compunction about bombing the Houthis.
It 's long overdue for the Ibn Sharm**ta Saud family to go away.
Shame on our pack addicted congress that keeps pumping weapons
to Arabia, and their bed partner Israel with our tax dollars
And they want us to reduce social security and health care?
I find this approach very confusing knowing this!
May 8, 2015 “Most Of The Existing Workers In The Saudi Oil Fields Are Yemenese And There Are Over 4 Million Yemenese In Saudi Arabia”
Saudi-Yemeni War More Complicated Than We Assume Trend forecaster Gerald Celente just made an interesting point in an interview with King World News: Most people don’t realize this but most of the existing workers in the Saudi oil fields are Yemenese. And there are over 4 million Yemenese in Saudi Arabia. So if there is an attack against Saudi Arabia, the situation could unravel very quickly. This would also have the effect of totally destabilizing global equity markets, which have only been fueled to bubble valuations by cheap money. What could possibly go wrong?
