Those Houthis are ferocious fighters....Saudis are getting that work in those hills...you know they praying for a Hillary win so they can get some help out there.
And they're blowing hundreds of billions
Prince Mohammed who was a gung ho cowboy last year has been keeping a low profile. He doesn't really associate himself with the war anymore.
No more of this:
He went AWOL after realising what a quagmire this is. Nikka don't bring up the war anymore.

We're complicit indirectly because we fund the Saudi war machine.
We're complicit directly because we've been drone striking targets in Yemen for the better part of the last decade.

No more of this:
Can you blame him...he grew up watching war movies..the real thing is not so simple...them houthis will take on a tank with just 2 hand grenades and an old AK 47His men on the other hand will drop their M16s and flee as soon as they get heavy fire...some probably run soon as they hear it even.

"The cooperation that we've extended to Saudi Arabia since the conflict escalated again is modest and it is not a blank check," Pentagon spokesman Adam Stump said in a statement.
U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the reduced staffing was not due to the growing international outcry over civilian casualties in the 16-month civil war that has killed more than 6,500 people in Yemen, about half of them civilians.
But the Pentagon, in some of its strongest language yet, also acknowledged concerns about the conflict, which has brought Yemen close to famine and cost more than $14 billion in damage to infrastructure and economic losses.
"Even as we assist the Saudis regarding their territorial integrity, it does not mean that we will refrain from expressing our concern about the war in Yemen and how it has been waged," Stump said.
On Tuesday, a coalition air strike hit a hospital operated by medical aid group Medecins Sans Frontieres in Yemen, killing 19 people and prompting the group to evacuate staff from six hospitals. MSF cited a "loss of confidence in the Saudi-led coalition to prevent fatal attacks."
U.S. Representative Ted Lieu, a Democrat from California and a colonel in the Air Force Reserve, said he believed such strikes could help galvanize votes for limiting arms transfers to Saudi Arabia.
"When its repeated air strikes that have now killed children, doctors, newlyweds, patients, at some point you just have to say: Either Saudi Arabia is not listening to the United States or they just don't care," Lieu said.

Saudis dont have a choice..they cant do it without air strikes ..the air is the only place they have superiority..the ground war is a killing field for them..Even with Bradleys and Abrams Tanks theyre being bodied by a disorganized collective of guys in sandals and old soviet era gear.

....Funny, even the alt/indy media barely discuss Yemen, and all the fukkery...much less MSM.
I don't get into weather influencing technology to much, but the technology I think has been proven to exist. But, Yemen was hit with not 1...................but 2 hurricanes/cyclone at the same time maybe close to a year ago. They are apparently pretty rare here. This is the other part, according to known weather records Yemen has never been hit with 2 hurricane/cyclone ever back to back like this or this intensity.
These 2 unprecedented cyclones occurred in middle of major fighting....could just be a coincidence. God works in mysterious ways right,

Those are probably natural..I doubt the elite would waste that tecnology on the Houthis bruh...As dry as the place is the rebels would view such a storm as a good omen...it would embolden them

More than one million children starve as Yemen war rages: U.N. agencies
More than one million children starve as Yemen war rages: U.N. agencies

LONDON (Thomson Reuters Foundation) - Around 1.5 million children in Yemen are malnourished and half the population lives in hunger, United Nations aid agencies said on Friday, three days after pictures of an emaciated Yemeni teenager sparked headlines around the world.
Yemen's 18-month war has left 370,000 children at risk of severe malnutrition - a condition which needs urgent treatment to prevent a child from dying - the U.N. children's agency UNICEF said at a press briefing in Geneva on Friday.
"It is really a dire situation on the ground. When you see mothers who have little to eat themselves and they see their children slipping away, it just breaks your heart," said World Food Programme (WFP) spokeswoman Bettina Luescher at the briefing.
"It really is shocking and horrible to see this in the 21st century."
Overall, almost half of all children in Yemen are stunted, according to WFP. Stunting is where children are short for their age, and is a sign of chronic malnutrition.
Luescher said because of diminishing resources and increased needs the U.N. agency has had to split food aid into smaller rations to reach 6 million people every month.
Around 7 million Yemenis are "desperately in need of food", she said, and the situation could worsen as the war rages.
Even before the conflict broke out, Yemen had one of the highest rates of malnutrition in the world, WFP said.
The agency said it needed $257 million to provide food aid until March next year.
These reports come after recent Reuters photos of a starving 18-year-old girl in a Yemeni hospital attracted worldwide attention.
The teenager is one of more than 13 million people, about half of Yemen's population, who are short of food, with much of the country on the brink of famine, according to the United Nations.
Her picture is a reminder of the humanitarian crisis in the Arabian Peninsula's poorest country where at least 10,000 people have been killed and millions displaced by fighting between the Saudi-led Arab coalition and the Iran-allied Houthi movement.
The humanitarian situation in Yemen has been compounded by a recent cholera outbreak, the World Health Organization said on Friday, with the number of suspected cases ballooning to 1,410 within three weeks of the outbreak being declared.
