Suicide-bombers killed at least 137 people and wounded more than 350 in Yemen at two Shia mosques in the capital city of Sanaa on Friday. The very next day, Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula seized control of the city of al-Houta, and the day after that, the Iranian-backed Houthi rebel movement conquered parts of Taiz, the nation's third-largest city. Rival militias are battling for control of the international airport in the coastal city of Aden, and the US government just announced that American troops are evacuating Al Anad airbase.

The one question I have is will the Saudis intervene. There is no way they will tolerate an Iranian satellite on the border. When there was a Shia uprising in Bahrain the Saudis sent in the tanks.
Wait until one muslim side wins and then nuke the place.
Just goes to show that just because you can remember something in a text book better than someone else doesn’t mean you are intelligent.
You mean like fight their own war with their own troops? Now that they can't get their DC slaves to do it for them.
So much that's wrong with the Middle East and so much of the terror civilization faces is initiatives at the behest of Saudi Arabia. It would be very nice to have DC pols they haven't paid for.
It looks like Syria a couple of years ago. “rebel” armies and a barely extant Government all trying to grab off what they can.
Hussein’s mission will be accomplished when one of the Fundy Islamist armies wins control of the whole country, preferably the one mostly closely aligned to Hussein’s Moslem Brotherhood..
The straits of Hormuz....
This is going to get nasty.
I thought Cliff Clavin from “Cheers” proved that. :)
Bring in all the Muzzie factions and let them all go at it.
Perhaps I remember incorrectly but did not the current imbecile in the White House declare Yemen a success?
That is correct. Mission Accomplished.
Another success story for the Current Regime. If this was “success”, I for one could not easily imagine the devastation that comes along with “failure”.
There is no practical limit on just how bad things could get.
You remember correctly. On September 10, 2014, the head clown from Occupy the White House said:
The failures of this administration just keep getting stacked up like cord wood. Yemen, Libya, Syria, Iran, Russia, Benghazi, etc. Has there ever been a critical article written in the corrupt MSM seriously analyzing Obama’s long list of failures? I mean beyond some random Op-ed piece?
Amazing. People ask why this administration constantly gets away with failures and tyrannical excesses, well the MSM wants him to get away with it. They purposely cover for the guy while - already - they begin to go after Cruz as “unelectable”, pandering to the Right, etc.
Yemen is on the other side of the Arabian Peninsula.
It’s the Bab al-Mandab Strait.
Thanks.
Should have checked the map.
I had my SA flipped.
Terrorists alleged to be associated with ISIL blew up a mosque in Yemen while the worshipers in the Mosque were calling down curses on Israel, America, and the Jews. Memri tv recorded the incident: direct Memri link here
