The Demise of Saudi Arabia, and Perhaps Christian Zionism? Yemen Shocks the World by Taking Control of the Red Sea
The Iran War drastically changed at the end of last week, as Yemen's Ansarullah-led Armed Forces (Houthis) took control of the country’s western coastline, capturing key positions overlooking the Bab al-Mandab Strait, including the coastal city of Mokha and strategic islands in and around the waterway, and they are now effectively controlling traffic in the Red Sea. As far as I can tell, this was a complete surprise to everyone, especially to Saudi Arabia and the United States. It forced the U.S. corporate media to report this, and it dominated the news stream until the fake "AI is going to destroy humanity if we don't do something about it" narrative took control of the news stream this past weekend. Saudi Arabia, who has been at war with Yemen since 2014 with the help of the U.S. and using U.S. military weapons, was forced to shut down their East-West oil pipeline, which was allowing Saudi Arabia to bypass the Strait of Hormuz to be able to get oil out of their country. This pipeline in Saudi Arabia reportedly transports about 4% to 5% of the global oil supply. Saudi Arabia is now in panic mode, and has reportedly pleaded with the U.S. to help them and start bombing the Yemen forces who have taken control of the Red Sea. However, it appears that Saudi Arabia never got the memo about one of Trump's objectives in the Iran War, which was to let Iran destroy the Gulf Nations' ability to control oil prices through OPEC, while at the same time seizing Venezuela oil amid plans to make America the center of oil sales around the world. Trump's response to Saudi Arabia: sorry, you're on your own. Of course, even if the U.S. did want to stop Yemen’s military and protect Saudi Arabia’s interests, it is doubtful that they would even be able to do so, given the depletion of their weapons and military assets as Iran continues to control the Strait of Hormuz. This very well could be the demise of Saudi Arabia. And if the Yemen takeover of the Red Sea turns the tide overall in the war against Iran, what will the Evangelical Christians do who are so positive that this war was sanctioned by God, and was to hasten the return of Jesus Christ? Could this also be the start of the decline of Christian Zionism as well when they realize that the U.S. cannot defeat Iran and force the return of Jesus Christ after all?
