UN experts find 'growing' evidence Iran sending weapons to Houthi rebels in war-torn Yemen

United Nations experts are warning of a "growing body of evidence" that Iran is sending weapons to Houthi rebels in war-torn Yemen, in a report that warns of a deteriorating situation in the country with "devastating consequence" for the civilian population.

(excerpt)

The evidence includes anti-tank guided missiles, sniper rifles and RPB launchers all with markings consistent with those made in Iran.

The Trump administration had warned of moves by Iran to destabilize the Middle East by arms sales, and attempted to reimpose a broader arms embargo, as well as other sanctions that were expiring as part of the 2015 Iran deal -- but faced pushback from allies and others at the U.N. that scuppered the effort.

Isn’t there evidence that the United States is providing arms to Saudi Arabia, which is the one invading Yemen?

Maybe if we send them another C-130 full of paper dollars they will be nice.

I think we should send them all a nuke-with a 5 minute timer.

Biden/Harris will start a new war somewhere in the Middle East. It’s what they live for. I think it must have caused them physical pain to see Trump in office for 4 years and NOT get us involved in a war. But don’t worry. Yemen or somewhere else — the troops will be sent soon.

Which explains why Biden/Harris/Rice regime cancelled the F35s to the UAE.

Growing evidence that’s been publicly available for what, half a decade?

We send advisors, and were refueling Saudi jets, too. Did KSA ever pay the bill for that? It was over 100 million dollars.

I’ve been hearing Iran is about to attack us with nukes any minute now for about thirty years.

Both the Saydis and the Houthis are bad but at least the Houthis are enemies of ISIS and al-Qaeda because Sunni vs Shia.

Neocons want us to side with al-Qaeda ISIS Saudis to take on Shia Syria and Iran.

I am under the opinion of let them fight it out but if I had to pick a side to root for it would be the Shia because the Sunnis are biggest jihadi threat. Shia only are a threat to the west where they live - most of the world is Sunni and they are the threat to Islam overrunning the west.
