| SANAA, Yemen (AP) — The turmoil in Yemen grew into a regional conflict Thursday, with Saudi Arabia and its allies bombing Shiite rebels allied with Iran, while Egyptian officials said a ground assault will follow the airstrikes. Iran denounced the Saudi-led air campaign, saying it "considers this action a dangerous step," and oil prices jumped in New York and London after the offensive. The military action turned impoverished and chaotic Yemen into a new front in the rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran. |

| #3 It will be a long or protractive struggle or war because of the Anti-US US Globalist Obama's minimalist approach to the GWOT + Building OWG-NWO. |

| #2 Both long-time ally Saudi Arabia + new Quasi-ally Iran are POTUS Obama's = Soon-to-be-Ex-Sole-Superpower, Future-OWG-Co-Superpower-amongst-Many Amerika's BFF in the ME + Persian Gulf. Unless the Saudis can agree to a compromise = reformist Govt., iff the KSA-led airstrikes fails to restore Hadi or other to power then ground forces will be needed to eliminate the Houthi threat from the Peninsula. UNOFORTUNATELY, AT THIS TIME IT APPEARS NEITHER SIDE IS WILLING TO COMPROMISE. Again, iff the Bammer continues to use a "MINIMALIST" MILPOL APPROACH, then any Saudi-Iran or Saudi-Iran-ISIS confrontation will likely be a long or protractive struggle = war??? |
