Saudi onslaught on Yemen doomed to fail: Iran MP
2015-03-29
[Iran Press TV] A senior Iranian politician has lashed out at Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
for its Arclight airstrikes against Yemen, saying such attacks will fail dismally.

"Saudi Arabia's policies in the region have failed," said the chairman of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of Iran's Parliament (Majlis), Alaeddin Boroujerdi, adding that the Saudi war in Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of. Except for a tiny handfull of Jews everthing there is very Islamic...
"has no logic."

"Saudi Arabia's military strike [on Yemen] is considered as a blatant violation of international regulations, and this aggression is a breach of Yemen's illusory sovereignty as a member of the United Nations
...boodling on the grand scale...
and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC)," he told news hounds on Saturday.

Boroujerdi further said that Saudi Arabia has upheld an "arrogant approach" to regional states including Yemen and resorted to all means in imposing its policies on Sana'a, but has failed to achieve its objectives.
