Yemen's October Surprise

Apparently, the people of Yemen are not dying fast enough to satisfy the House of Saud:

The Saudi-led invasion of the vital Yemen aid port of Hodeidah has been slow going, and that’s fueled a lot of complaints from aid groups about the disastrous consequences of them taking the city. This has the coalition planning a major escalation.

Official are now saying that more than 10,000 additional troops will be sent against Hodeidah, both trying to shore up parts of the province already captured, and starting a new offensive against the city itself “within days.”

This new force is going to be heavily built around the Sudanese military, which has just recently dispatched thousands of troops to join the war. Sudan was part of the Saudi-led coalition from the start, but this is their first major involvement in the ground war in Yemen.

Tell me again - why are we still supporting this catastrophe? Because the arms merchants need the money?

And don't give me any "Trump" crap. This would be happening no matter who was in the White House.
