    Yeah, or the US just invades Yemen with global support, triggering the regional crisis Iran wanted.

    None of the regional powers actually care about Palestine outside of using it as a convenient political excuse.

      Some of the governments of various regional powers may not care. However the Palestinian cause has massive popular support.

      In Yemen I think it’s both. The Yemeni people were starved and bombed by the Saudis with lots of US support. It shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that they feel a deep sympathy for what Palestinians are going through.

      The US will lose to the Houthis faster than they did to the Taliban. The Houthis are far better soldiers than the Taliban an have already been dodging US made bombs for a decade.

      But hey, maybe it’ll stabilize Red Sea trade long enough for the Zionists to complete their genocide.

        There won’t be any goal to police Yemen afterward, which is where the US “lost” (and I’m using that word loosely).

          What’s so loose about surrendering Afghanistan back to the Taliban?

          So what will the goal be in Yemen theb? Just bomb them enough that they can’t threaten shipping? The Saudi’s bombed them for almost a decade. Or are we gonna put “boots on the ground” and occupy Yemen until Israel is done with its genocide? I dont think thats going to work well. Maybe we’ll sponsor the Islamic State to do it for us?
