    I'm looking forward to the day when the Iranian people rise up and challenge the religious gangsters in Tehran. This President will support the people instead of the religious gangsters like Obungo did.

    Nope.. I think he's a maniac and very corrupt. They have a completely different mindset from the Saudi leadership.

    They are peaceful and don't have the bitterness and resentments that you see where people were ruled by colonials powers. I like them.

    I was asked that very question in a very large press conference in Riyadh some years back. I told them that I had every confidence that Saudi men and women would sort that out according to their culture and tradition. Salman was there and Abdallah.. They have made a lot of progress. I remember back when they first announced public education for girls..

    What about the culture and tradition of Israel, they're democracy and contributions to the world in literature, music, science, entertainment, etc? Do you support them?

    Pressure from the usual suspects is on the Saudis to go down a route they don't want! And the stories become more confusing, and even Kafkaesque, where it is now claimed that the missile remains recovered showed it was a Quds 1 missile, which is manufactured or assembled by the Houthis. But the fact that is a Quds 1 missile now is being used as evidence that it wasn't fired from Yemen!!! Why? Because some experts believe that the Quds 1 would not have the range!!!!!

    So a missile produced or at least assembled by the Houthis, which resembles an Iranian missile which has a range of 1,500 kilometers but has differences too (differences that lead "experts" to conclude it couldn't have the range of Iran's Soumar/or Hovizeyeh missile) is the evidence that it wasn't the Houthis but it was Iran that fired the missiles into Saudi Arabia!!:)

    Only folks aligned with the pro Israel lobby are capable of such mental gymnastics! Or maybe someone can explain this to me, because it definitely flies over my head!!

    That's your opinion. My opinion is it is the fulfillment of biblical prophecy, and the restoration of the Nation of Israel is a big part of God's plan.

    To the moderator who deleted my post. I did not advocate dropping a nuclear bomb on innocent people. If you read my post I clearly said that the USA should give 72 hour notice to the people of Iran to leave. Idiot.

    Up to now, I thought it was Iran that supplied the Houthis with their missiles. But it now seems that the Houthis are the ones who supply Iran with our missiles! Otherwise, how can remnants of a Quds 1 missile prove the missile was fired from Iran??? Quds 1 maybe resemble and be based on an Iranian design, but it is not an Iranian missile but one belonging to the Houthis!!

    Ask the Lebanese and Palestinians who it is that delivers grief upon them.
    It is NOT Iranian Bombs & Bullets that are tearing them & their kids to pieces

    as you seem to realize
    They will tell YOU Margot2 - They will tell YOU it is bloody Zionist Israel
    who are dropping Bombs that are Bought & Paid For by the American

    What is crippling Yemen and turning it into an unprecedented Humanitarian Catastrophe

    Repressive? The kids went to school and got vaccinations. Yemen Times published every day. There were over 500 more factories than they have now and a small oil production that was 90% of Yemeni exports.

    Repressive ? Genocidal ! is more like it
    4 Christ's Sake - Read the NEWS Margot2 - :(

    Those schools and those factories have been Bombed into Oblivion
    by Bombs supplied to Saudi Arabia by the American Government

    And NOT only Vaccinations are being denied Yemani children
    ...............But even basic Food is denied them as a direct result
    .............................................................the Saudi/American Seige

    But of coarse Starving children to Death is a "Price they feel is Worth it"

    I'm kinda confused, President Obama said his biggest success as President was Yemen.

    BTW...who was the idiot who issued an unlawful order to U.S. Marines in Yemen to surrender their weapons and destroy those weapons ?

    A complete violation of the U.S. military Code of Conduct.
