| [PRESSTV] The front man for 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... i Armed Forces says three Saudi military brigades were completely destroyed after Yemeni Army troops, backed by allied fighters from Popular Committees, mounted a large-scale military offensive in the kingdom’s southern border region of Najran a city in southwestern 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... |

| #11 They needed footage of defeated, demoralized men of military age so they just called out everyone from a nearby town. |

| #10 The video is more a parade than surrendered Army. Dutifully marching along, no walking wounded, no camo. |

| #1 ...Not impossible, but damned unlikely. The Saudi Army is approximately eighteen brigades in size, so losing three - or even having them chewed up enough to go combat ineffective - would be a pretty serious hit. I'm thinking that were it true, the 82nd Airborne would be ramping up for a deployment, and the Marines would be inbound as well; a hole in the forces like that would simply be too much for the Iranians to resist.
