The real danger is not whether the Houthis literally “close” Bab al-Mandab. The more uncomfortable question is how they were allowed to accumulate this much strategic leverage in the first place.

@omeisy "unless Yemen’s government and anti-Houthi forces unify their political and military decision-making, receive serious and desperately needed support, the Houthis will continue turning their opponents’ divisions into strategic gains" think you are on to something - 244 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

Saudi Arabia wants America back in the Yemen war. Trump wants no part of it. Axios reports that Mohammed bin Salman called Trump twice on 10 September, asking for American strikes on the Houthis. Trump said no. Two US officials say Washington has no intention of intervening http

@omeisy It's also the UN-recognised "governments" that are more fiction than reality on the ground. How is it Ok that a government sits in Riyadh and outsources its finances and decisions to Saudi Arabia? We have seen this fail in Afghanistan and Somalia, and many other places 306 views · 1 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

The Houthi takeover of Mayyun and advance along the Red Sea coast is not simply a story of Houthi military strength. It is also the consequence of years of fragmentation, competing agendas and lack of coordination within the anti-Houthi camp. The Houthis have consistently shown 37.5K views · 56 likes · 13 reposts · 4 replies Open on X →

The Saudis could have joined the Abraham accords to advance regional peace and cooperation.

Beyond strategic losses and ports that fell, I can't be the only one worried about the trove of intel, military equipment, and vast munitions Houthis seized in camps and areas they took control of and will in turn use against their foes locally and regionally in push to seize 29.2K views · 39 likes · 8 reposts · 0 replies Open on X →

Some people seem to still earnestly believe that Iran fully controls the Houthis and are bewildered why they haven't jumped to action. While there are strategic and pragmatic reasons why, and Houthis may still make a move, I want to reiterate again that Houthis are not merely "a
