Friday, July 24, I note an article from Reuters that actually ‘takes sides’ against Iran. It was ‘on the record’ multiply sourced and identified as such.
The substance was that, when the Houthi Racist Islamic Supremacist leadership flew home from the BIG funeral, they were accompanied by as many as one or two dozen senior IRG Racist Islamic Supremacist leaders. There many also have been advanced offensive missile weaponry.
I have been assuming, rightly or wrongly, ocean-going ship transfers from Iran to Iranian-occupied Yemen have been virtually impossible.
There is also unmistakable evidence that Communist China has been aiding Iran with far more than satellite targeting assistance. Missiles and missile technology have been flown in on cargo planes. If I am not mistaken, a Chinese shipload of the necessary chemicals for advanced missile fuel was identified quite some time ago.
Decades ago, I used to encounter quite a lot of news reports about a ‘NO-FLY ZONE’ in Sadam Hussein’s Iraq – obviously before 2003.
This leads me to two questions.
Q1: Why does Saudi Arabian (and allies) overwhelming air power not maintain a ‘No-Fly Zone’ over Iranian-occupied Yemen?
Unless my knowledge is more than ten years out-of-date and wrong, it was certainly true a decade ago that, after the US and China, the third largest national military budget was not Russia but Saudi Arabia. Should not they and their well-funded allies have the Air Power to operate a ‘No-Fly Zone’ over Houthi-Iranian Occupied Yemen?
Alternatively, instead of the perpetual policy of ‘kicking the can down the road,’ if Saudi Arabia took a mere 1/10th of their ‘military budget’ and hired and fully armed the mercenary Wagner Group as ‘boots on the ground,’ surely these warriors could actually solve the Iranian-caused problem in the Arabian Peninsula. Unlike everyone else outside the Racist Islamic Supremacist world, they could actually ‘exterminate’ the ever-growing number of professional exterminators. They are hated in the West because they actually fight to win. They don’t take living prisoners who are never executed and are otherwise inevitably medically improved and returned to Active Terrorism by the ‘trading’ of kidnapped civilian hostages that they take a break from murdering because of their ‘BARGAINING CHIP’ value.
Actual victory would certainly diminish the eternal Recruitment Magnet of Islamic Terrorism Organizations as a means to turn a failed and unhappy personal life into a hypothetical Salvation.
Q2: Why don’t we and all possible allies maintain a ‘No-Fly Zone’ over Racist Islamic Supremacist IRG Iran?
I guess I must be ignorant and uninformed.
PS. Would it not be a remarkably unifying moment if former President William Jefferson Clinton, remembering what his administration maintained over Iraq, publicly offered these two suggestions? (Boy, would Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists of America be mad at Clinton and his close buddy Carville!)
