yes, in 1991 when this was filmed, with the croaking of the USSR, some foresaw the return of the Pharaohs and vile old ways..

Do you also remember the parable of the three bulls and the lion?? Now, it begins on the kindest imaginable folks of the Gulfies. With Syria, Iraq, Egypt – the only serious arab armies and peoples in immediate surrounding of the Holy Land either leveled and/or financially subjugated, it’s time for the last stupid dominoes… who like their spiritual brethren the EuroCrazies think bags of money buy power, worthwhile arms, and stability.. No need to set foot on them, save at the end to claim more land over bleaching bones after the camel-fuckers off themselves. Such a predictable outcome.

AB Atwan and others make the cogent point the real objective behind the “recognition of Somaliland” by Zion was NOT to assault Yemen, which is nonsense and beyond them, if their sugar daddies the Yanquis fled for their miserable lives, but rather the incremental dismemberment of KSA and Egypt. As I’ve noted, these two have already largely emptied lands adjacent to Zion, such as Sinai and NEOM. The predictable next steps follow, with precedents set elsewhere. Also Kurdish “Rojava” in NE Syria..

⭕ 🇾🇪🇸🇦🇦🇪 Yemen: Saudi airstrikes have targeted southern Yemen, particularly the port of Mukalla in Hadhramaut province. According to Saudi authorities, these strikes reportedly targeted arms shipments destined for the Southern Transitional Council (STC).

Riyadh claims that these weapons arrived by sea from the port of Fujairah in the UAE 🇦🇪, transported by two ships before reaching Yemeni territory.

This accusation marks a significant break, as it is the first time that Saudi Arabia has carried out strikes indirectly implicating the UAE, which was once its ally in the coalition engaged in Yemen.
⭕ 🇾🇪🇸🇦🇦🇪 Yemen: The Yemeni government announced the termination of the defense agreement with the UAE and demanded the withdrawal of their troops within 24 hours.
Ships from the UAE, at the port of Mukalla, were targeted by Saudi strikes.
⭕ 🇸🇦Υ🇪🇦🇪 Yemen: Saudi Arabia publicly accuses the UAE of having carried out, through the Southern Transitional Council, unauthorized military actions in eastern Yemen (Hadramout and Al-Mahra), including the transfer of weapons and vehicles without the coalition’s approval.

Riyadh considers these actions a direct threat to its national security, a violation of the coalition’s principles in Yemen, and a destabilizing factor for the country and the region.

The Kingdom affirms that its security is a red line and that it will take all necessary measures.

Saudi Arabia reaffirms its support for the recognized Yemeni government, which has demanded that the UAE withdraw its forces from Yemen within 24 hours and cease all military or financial support to local parties, calling for a political solution through dialogue, while wishing to preserve bilateral relations.

🌟 Khalil Nasrallah:

“We have reached a time in which we hear the members of the “Southern Transitional Council” in Yemen say: we have been subjected to a brutal Saudi attack! These are the same people who wrote poetry in praise of the Saudi Crown Prince

The Saudi-Emirati alliance in Yemen .. is collapsing”

Also posted a brief summary:
“Saudi Arabia struck the port of Mukalla in southeastern Yemen after a warning to evacuate it.
Taqa, in a statement on behalf of the coalition, said it had detected two ships coming from#Fujairah (the UAE) and entering the port without official authorization, carrying weapons for the (Emirati-backed) Southern Transitional Council.
Saudi Arabia dealt with the Southern Transitional Council as an outlaw militia and carried out a strike.
Saudi Arabia is responding to the UAE’s challenge to it, and what has happened is a qualitative development.
The issuance of a statement on behalf of the coalition means that the “legitimacy” of any action must pass through it, and it will not allow Abu Dhabi to bypass it.
Saudi Arabia feels a loss after its flank (Hadhramaut) was struck by a group supported by Abu Dhabi.
The crisis with the UAE is escalating.

Saudi Arabia is establishing the “legitimacy” of the presidential council it formed, by force.
It issues statements through it and carries out strikes, previously in some areas of the depth of Hadhramaut, and at dawn today in the port of Mukalla.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will not allow the UAE to expand through tools that it originally created.
Saudi Arabia has chosen to resolve the issue of Hadhramaut and Al Mahrah with Abu Dhabi by force, by weakening its local agents and stripping them of “legitimacy”.
Riyadh, for several years, is no longer enthusiastic about the separation of the Yemeni south from its north, because its losses would be doubled.
The separation of the south would mean a net gain for Abu Dhabi and with it “Tel Aviv”.

Since the ousting of Abd Rabbuh Mansour Hadi in 2022 and the appointment of the Presidential Council led by Rashad al-Alimi, disputes have been plaguing that council, which was mainly supported by Washington and Saudi Arabia.
The disputes were between the Transitional Council and al-Alimi, and several reconciliations were held in Riyadh in the presence of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman.
Saudi Arabia always wants the reference for the Yemeni reality to be in Riyadh, not in Abu Dhabi.
Therefore, it was provoked by the recent UAE move to push the Transitional Council to control Saudi Arabia’s flanks in Hadhramaut and Al Mahrah.
Efforts to resolve the crisis have not been successful, and there is an external hint to Abu Dhabi, followed by an Israeli one.
Therefore, Riyadh sees itself facing only one option, which is to regain the initiative.
Washington, as usual, will work to manage the conflict.
Let’s observe.

Saudi Arabia is venting its anger at the UAE with a harsh statement that reflects the extent of the rift and conflicting interests between the two parties in Yemen and other regions.
What many have long tried to deny has now erupted.

Saudi Arabia, through its “Yemeni Presidential Council”, is demanding that UAE forces leave southern Yemen.”

It is most interesting that the names of successive iterations of the data bank hosting the ruling malignant A.I. in WestWorld were given the names of the progeny of the biblical Prophet-King David.. Solomon, David, Rohoboam, etc.. All from the lineage of Prophet-King David, Jesus and the usurpative Moshiach.. how about that?! [02] And the West is said to be zero-morality or post-religion! Au contraire, western elites are most spiritual, and devotees of their “gods”.
NB. Larry Ellison of Oracle built one such ruling data bank under Jerusalem for over $300,000,000, mirroring plans under the former East Wing of the Gold House. Yes, the same Ellison who stood with Goldfinger on Day #1 of his second term, inaugurating “Project Stargate” alongside other tech titans of A.I. and finance, and who recently acquired TikTok and CBS News. It’s one filthy Big Club, all children of the Moshiach.

BTW, the fanatical obsession of western elites with archeology and funding looting and “discovery” of ancient fertile crescent wastelands buried in seas of sand has to do with the lust for demonic control (a la Aladdin and the oil lamp) and retrieval of ancient totems and “stargates”, i.e. portals and magickal items and tools of power of former destroyed civilizations, most connected to Babylon and Yemen.

A quarter of the Arabian peninsula is buried under sand, the former destroyed lands of a people that exceeded Sumer and taught the wickedness to Babylon and Pharaohs. It is not a coincidence the mushrooming memes, obsessions and fixation on Pharanoic paraphernalia of the current Orange Wrecking Crew – many of the principalities animating these wretched meatsuits were recently released from the Pit, aiming to reinstate the feudal-slave paradigm of their former days of Glory, as marked by Gaza as the universal preview and template.

⭕ Full statement (auto-translate):

“Statement by Leader Sayyed Abdulmalik Badreddin Al-Houthi on the latest developments in Somalia

In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Most Compassionate

In an aggressive move that is part of the Zionist enemy’s conspiracies against our Islamic nation, the Israeli enemy has announced its recognition of the Somaliland region as a separate entity from Somalia, in a hostile stance targeting Somalia and its African surroundings, as well as Yemen and the Red Sea and the countries on its shores.

This Zionist aggressive move aimed at establishing a foothold in Somalia to target the region, and also to fragment the countries of the region in a plan that is not limited to Somalia, but its declared goal is to change the Middle East. All of this requires our nation to confront it in all forms.

The Israeli enemy’s declaration in itself is null and void and has no value on the balance beam of righteousness or international law. It is an aggression with hostile goals and a hostile agenda. It is an occupying entity that lacks legitimacy for itself, so how can it recognize others’ rights?

However, the Israeli enemy will work behind the scenes to expand the circle of recognition and cooperation with it from other parties and countries, and will strive to make the Somaliland region a foothold for its hostile activities against Somalia, African countries, Yemen, and Arab countries, and threaten the security of the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. It will also work to further disintegrate and fragment other countries in the same way it has done in Somalia.

In the face of this Zionist aggression on Somalia and the region, we affirm the following:

• The need for an Arab and Islamic firm and serious stance in standing by Somalia and supporting the Somali people, and thwarting the Israeli enemy’s attempts and pressuring the traitors collaborating with it in the Somaliland region. As well as taking measures at the international level and adopting a firm stance from all international institutions in support of Somalia.
• We affirm our steadfast position with the brotherly Somali people against the Israeli enemy, and we will take all possible supportive measures to stand with them. Any Israeli presence in the Somaliland region will be considered a military target for our armed forces, as it constitutes an aggression on Somalia and Yemen, and a threat to the security of the region. We will not accept that a part of Somalia be turned into a foothold for the Israeli enemy at the expense of Somalia’s independence, sovereignty, and the security of the Somali people and the region and the Red Sea.
• We call on all countries on the shores of the Red Sea, as well as the Arab and Islamic world, to take practical steps and measures to prevent the Israeli enemy from encroaching on Somalia and other Muslim and independent countries.
• We affirm the need for the entire nation to stand in support and solidarity with the oppressed Palestinian people. Any weakness in this regard provides an opportunity for the Israeli enemy in its conspiracies against the rest of the countries. He is an enemy of the entire nation and a danger to the countries of the region if his aggressive conspiracies are not confronted with firmness, seriousness, and responsibility.

And Allah is the Helper, and suffices as a Guardian, and suffices as a Supporter.

🔻 TechFuture: I think USA has around 10,000-20,000 missiles. They are understandably trying to hide their stockpiles. Maybe I’m wrong
🔻 WS: Tomahawk inventory is less than 3500. Probably closer to 3000.
🔻 Buma: Are you sure the failure is due to quality control?
🔻 WS: The majority of the Tomahawk stockpile is well past its “best if used by” date.

🔻 RichardSharpe: I wonder if Kalibr has lower failure rates?

🔻 Irony Man: In a real peer war, reliability beats elegance every time.
A 20% failure rate turns precision into a liability when volume decides outcomes. Old, boring, almost steampunkish systems, crude, mechanical, unglamorous, that work 99% of the time and are produced by the tens of thousands will outlast exquisite hardware built in the hundreds.
🔻 RoboBot2020: Quite obvious you dont know shit about a tomahawk, go repost other stuff son
🔻 WS: Here is what I know about the American Tomahawk cruise missile:

The Tomahawk is an old, slow, and relatively archaic cruise missile in this day and age.

Trump 45 ordered a couple big Tomahawk strikes against Syria. ~180 in total, iirc. They had a high failure rate. At least a few dozen were shot down or defeated via EW, using Syria’s old Soviet equipment.

The Tomahawk’s only meaningful attribute is its relatively long reach (depending on model).

And therefore the US is especially fond of blowing up defenseless persone non grate with Tomahawks launched from extreme stand-off positions.

If they try firing Tomahawks against a well-stocked serious layered defense like Russia and China field, they will perform at least as poorly as the Storm Shadow has.

The Storm Shadow is considerably faster and more capable than the Tomahawk, and yet of 500+ sent to Ukraine, no more than about five dozen hit a target. And they became increasingly ineffective with each passing month.

They boasted a 90%+ failure rate over the last year+ of their deployment before they were almost entirely withdrawn from the battlefield, along with the similarly ineffective ATACMS SRBM.

The Storm Shadow made a rare appearance a few days ago. The Ukrainians claim to have cobbled together enough Su-24s to launch a salvo of twelve, of which ten were shot down or defeated via EW.

I repeat, the Tomahawk is an old, slow, relatively archaic cruise missile. Launched against Russia or China in sufficient numbers, they would probably score a couple impressive hits with the first salvo, but would then achieve negligible follow-up successes.

Not to mention the Russians and Chinese would be certain to launch massive counterstrikes against the naval platforms and logistical hubs associated with the attacks against them.

I cannot conceive a more foolish blunder than for the US to launch any manner of missile strikes against Russia, China, or any of their respective geostrategic interests.

Iran, North Korea, Venezuela, Cuba, and many locations in Africa are now considered by Russia and China to be imperative geostrategic interests.

“Appeal to imagined authority is one of the foremost logical fallacies for very good reason.

In this particular case, a great many informed and critical-thinking-enabled people with similarly relevant qualifications disagree emphatically with your argument — and rightly so.

Your argument hypothesizes an extraneous right to seize that it presumes to derive from the explicitly enunciated permissions to visit and inspect, as delineated in UNCLOS 110.

Your argument asserts that United States tribunals can issue authoritative rulings to seize foreign merchant ships and their cargoes on the high seas — pursuant to enforcing the unilateral “sanctions” the United States has pronounced upon many nations, kindreds, tongues, and people around the world.

Your argument presumes the right of the United States to both issue unilateral sanctions, and to unilaterally enforce them.

My argument is that piracy by any other name still smells the same.

Your argument is not only fallacious, it is pernicious in the extreme — and if its scope and aggressiveness continue to augment, it will lead to war between the major powers of the planet.”

So they’ve worked and worked mightily over the centuries to surround, impoverish and weaken specifically those two – and control the outlets to the Red Sea and Hormuz.
As Greater Syria was fractured into five, so was Somalia even before Sykes-Picot – for both those peoples are permanent enemies of Satanism and western Drangs.
