One Iran-Linked Move Just Plunged Saudi Arabia Into A National Crisis!

from Kernow Damo

Right, so, remember those Saudi oil facilities going up in flames a few years back?Keep that picture in mind, because the war Riyadh spent years pretending it had settled may now be kicking off again and they’ve done it all to themselves.The Saudi-backed government in Yemen decided to lob a missile at Sanaa Airport because a few Iranian VIPs had the audacity to show their faces in Houthi territory.Not exactly tourists with selfie sticks here.Saudi Arabia, desperate to play the innocent bystander, insists its air defences leapt into action and heroically intercepted the retaliation before Abha Airport on their side of the border could get an unscheduled sunroof.Yet, mysteriously, flights still evaporated, and the panic now stretches far beyond one unlucky runway.Riyadh. Ports. Oil facilities.That’s how a single Iranian handshake sends the entire Saudi establishment into a full-blown national panic attack.Now Mohammed bib-Salman, MBS gets to choose between yanking his own side back and crossing his fingers that the next fireworks display doesn’t end with his palace as the grand finale.Now, I’m not going to retell the whole Iranian plane story again; I told it the other day in another video.We’ve done that part.But by way of a brief summation, in case you didn’t catch it, what basically happened was the main Yemeni airport at Sanaa was struck; the Iranian delegation aboard the plane still managed to reach Houthi-controlled Yemen, landing at another airport, and everyone was left shouting about their sovereignty being impugned with potentially explosive consequences ongoing.The key point now is the outcome: this strike dragged Saudi Arabia back into missile alerts, cancelled flights, and threats to airports, ports and oil facilities, reviving a war it had spent years trying to contain.
