The Arab leaders have long seen the Houthis as dangerous proxies for Iran, the group’s main military supplier, but some observers now say the truth may be even worse: that the Houthis are fanatics who answer to no one.
NOOO!!! THEY’RE INDEPENDENT!!!
Instead, the Saudi coalition withdrew from Hodeidah under pressure from the United States and aid groups who warned that the battle could lead to an even deeper humanitarian catastrophe. Some analysts and human-rights workers now believe that those concerns were exaggerated amid an atmosphere of widespread anger at the Saudis.
NOOO!!! NO ONE WILL SUFFER FROM SAUDI WARS!!!
For the outside world, there is a larger concern: Now that the Houthis have shown what they can do in the Red Sea, what is to stop them from finding new pretexts to do it again? Their arsenal includes unmanned, explosive-packed boats and submarines, with parts provided by Iran. If one of these were to strike an American naval vessel, it could kill a lot of sailors.
if only these rebels told us what they wanted, but since they didnt, we have absolutely no way to figure out how to avoid their senseless attacks...
WHAT DO YOU WANT, MYSTERIOUS ORIENTAL MAN?
