US Fanning Flames of Yemen War
By: Kayhan Int’l Staff Writer
US officials sorely lack wisdom and are known for their blindness towards facts and realities. It is the cowboy mentality of the once ‘wild west’ that governs the mindset of the regimes that march in and out of the White House every four years.
This is crystal clear from Washington’s foreign policy of spreading terrorism all over the world and committing crimes against humanity.
This is not just evident in the destruction of Afghanistan, the bullying of Latin American states, the plundering of the natural resources of Africa, the economic terrorism against Iran, the destabilization of Syria and Iraq, the military threats in Ukraine, the militarization of Taiwan, and the support for Israel’s genocide in Palestine, but also in prolongation of the Saudi-UAE war in Yemen.
It means the world would be a peaceful place to live in if the hegemonic US disintegrates into several countries and ceases to exist.
The day will surely dawn for the end of the modern world’s most evil empire, since it is the principle of Divine Justice that no power should permanently exist.
An example of the crooked thinking of US officials is the recent remark of Brett McGurk, the National Security Council’s coordinator for West Asia and North Africa.
When people are being killed in hundreds by American bombs dropped by the American aircraft of Saudi Arabia in their homes in Sana’a and in detention centres in Sa’ada, he expressed support for the slaughter of the innocent men, women, and children of Yemen by saying the ‘Houthis’ (Ansarullah Movement) – not the regime in Riyadh – are to be blamed for continuation of war.
McGurk was not joking, neither was he unaware of ground realities, nor was he trying to find a solution to the unwarranted invasion of Yemen by clients Saudi Arabia and the UAE.
He was actually baying for more bloodshed and ruin, as is the American wont to be sadistic and unrealistic when crises erupt.
McGurk sounded more irrational and proved to be just another harebrained US official when he said “Riyadh is working to end the conflict in Yemen”, and “we are committed fundamentally to helping Saudi Arabia defend its sovereign territory and its sovereign space.”
Now we better understand why there is no end to the 7-year long war which is threatening to spread to the other countries of the region.
For the US, either Yemen is a Saudi province and its defenders are rebels, or the Yemenis have invaded Saudi Arabia and it is the duty of American officials to safeguard their chief client from disintegration by continuing the massive flow of deadly weapons to Riyadh to try to beat the Yemenis into submission.
A faulty judgement that only strengthens the indomitable spirit of resistance of the Anasarullah Movement and makes the Yemenis more determined to retaliate against the war crimes of the Saudis and the Emiratis even if it means targeting the military bases of the American super terrorists, in the region – such as Dhafra near Abu Dhabi that was hit by two missiles last week.
