If I’m not mistaken this blockade of basic aid goes against all international humanitarian law and the law of war and is completely without any legal justification that I am aware of. This is madness, they’re going to create another Syria.
Politics is war by other means

What the Serbs and Montenegrins did to the Bosnian Muslims was completely illegal and evil and the Serb got away with it. Genocide works.

Hmmm,.. I'm wondering if a "Saudis go bonkers and alienate everybody just before Iran is 'overthrown' by their youth, and ally with an 'anti-sunni-&-anti-china' group" situation sets up the "crystallizing/hardening" of the China+Sunni Vs. Iran+West polarity?

But we "love" the Saudis, don't we? Maybe not, if they're "go bad", eh?

If Yemen imports 90% of their food, and all this is cut off, then 90% of their population could die.
Would this human caused disaster cause a Reset in Yemen, if they are not in a crisis now, john?

It will most likely cause an outright Iranian invasion.

Yemen's population is 28 and a half million people.
Think of the scale of famine we are talking about.

Oh,... the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia!

..Iran invades Saudi Arabia,.. uh,.. that WOULD be interesting! What's your conjecture as to how they'd do that? I really wanna hear your absolutely fascinating idea of how that might happen. :)

Please please PLEASE write up your thoughts and post them.

Thanks! :)
