@aussi_punter: Saudi Arabia and its allies flew 25,000 air raids over Yemen. The Houthis still hold the capital. This month, by its own count, a hundred jets went back in. Run it through three words, mass, supply and encirclement, and Yemen splits in two: the flat coast, where the jets are advancing, and the mountains, where planes have struggled since 2015. Then the price gap between a cheap drone and the missile that shoots it down, the 1960s war known as "Egypt's Vietnam", and the game every side is playing over the strait. Which of the three questions breaks first? Tell me in the comments. The full story of how America said no to Saudi Arabia is on YouTube: Punter's Logic. The link's in our bio.
