Saudi Arabia says 1 dead, 2 injured by missile fragment in country’s capital as Yemen’s Houthi rebels fired barrage of ballistic missiles. Saudi military says it intercepted 7 missiles, 3 of which were targeting Riyadh.
Seems substantially more likely than “improvised by a Yemeni blacksmith.”
Looking good for my energy stocks.
I wonder if this could be some kind of retaliation for the (probable) Israeli attack in Lebanon on Hezbollah not too far from the city of Baalbek in Syria, which is about halfway from Damascus to the new nuclear site in Syria at al-Qusayr. Amir speculates that Israel must have located several game-changing weapons that they were able to smuggle across the border.
As of now Hezbollah is denying any Israeli strike.
This comes from Arab media sources, saying the strikes took place at about 3 or 4 p.m. EDT.
They took an air-to-air missile and launched it off a rail while on the ground.
They must have rigged the components from an unusable aircraft to create a ground launch system.
I think the Saudis do have a nuke(s) even if it is in Pakistan. Iran at this point may very well be on their way having Obama Deal nukes. Israel certainly does.
“Houthese rebels? Who are they?”
The Fugawis.
Patriot missiles being launched and then turn right back into the ground.
Kinda ugly.
Ohboy. More turmoil.
puppets of the puppets who are the puppets of the puppets of the ringleader
We should have blown all those Sowdie cities off the map on 9/12, and denied them their targets.
Third video down shows one of the missiles outbound then it does a u-turn and impacts and sends burning missile fuel into the air very close to the launcher. I think this is what is being seen as the very first video is starting.......
Another signal from Friday’s bill signing.
Ping.
Kinda danger close that one.
Iran vs. Saudi Arabia?
I’ll grab the popcorn and enjoy the show. I wish them both the very worst.
Thank you.
Yeah, that sounds possible. “Hmmm, we can’t keep this airplane flying, but we can take one of the missiles, and my dad’s a TV repair man, he’s got an awesome set of tools . . . “
I’m honestly surprised they made it work. Heat seeking? AA-2 “Atoll” or similar?
I’m with you. This newly stylish handwringing for our Saudi “friends” is just not for me. “There are limits to my hypocrisy.”
Anyway, I call false flag. Tonkin Gulf incident with sand and salafis. Time for a tagline change since Ace McCain refuses to die.
Impossible!
We’re the Fugawis!!!
If the saudis lose who will hold bush’s hand and whom will Obama bow to?
