As they have so many times in this war, Saudi Arabia has announced an escalation of the aerial bombardment of Yemen this weekend, admonishing civilians to avoid driving in several provinces at risk of being targeted.
The airstrikes have been centering on Shabwa and Maarib, but they also threatened the Bayda Province, and singled out several districts in Maarib that would be the most likely to be hit.
This sets the stage for yet more airstrikes, and may be complicated for the Saudis, who are constantly complaining about how many missiles they’re firing, but never seeking a way to scale back.
Weapon shortages will be even worse now, and the Saudi airstrikes, while deadly, are never the end-all, be-all military solutions they’re promising. The result is just further retaliation, and more war.
The Saudi sovereign wealth fund must have invested in Raytheon or something.
Saudi Arabia, Israel and the whole Middle East isn’t worth one drop of American blood or one American dollar.
All done with American weaponary. Saudi Arabia the very nation the USA labels.terrorist and being behind 9/11 yet they sell billions of dollars of weapons to.
Keeps that ol industrial military complex rolling.
What’s the latest count on starving Yemen children? I’m assuming the projected 400,000 deaths in 2021 was achieved although we heard less and less, count wise, as the year went on. Could someone wake up Joe, change his diaper, and get his ass to cut those bastards off?
