Biden's Friends Throw Ballistic Missile at Saudis
The new friends ofJoe Biden in Yemen greeted the statement against Saudi Prince Mohammad bin Salman with drones, ballistic missile.
This is the message sent to the Saudis after the US attempt to shift allegiance over the Yemen war.
The Arab News says the Houthis launched six drones toward the Kingdom’s southern region. All were destroyed. The Arab coalition also intercepted a ballistic missile attack targeting the capital Riyadh.
Let us hope they did not write any messages on the drones and missile. It would be similar to the Israeli messages sent on the bombs on Gaza.

The Houthi drones targeting civilian areas in the Kingdom. Some were in the southwestern city Khamis Mushayt, one targeting Jazan and one in the southern region on Saturday.
The Houthis are sending a number of booby-trapped drones.
Since last week, Yemen’s Houthis have intensified their attacks on Saudi Arabia and the central Yemeni province of Marib.
Last week the Houthis’ military spokesman, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, said two of the group’s drones attacked the Abha International Airport in southern Saudi Arabia.
Taking to Twitter, he said the two drones launched on Sunday afternoon had achieved a “precise hit.”
Since Biden took power there are policy changes towards Saudi Arabia. But the Houthis are increasing the attacks against the country.
The Iran-backed Houthis have also intensified their attacks on the city of the Marib government in the north of Yemen.
Biden has revoked the designation of the Houthis as a foreign terrorist group.
POLICY CHANGE NOT STOPPING HOUTHIS
His aides say it was a necessary step toward clearing the way for negotiations. But this was the approach during the Barack Obama administration.
During the Donald Trump administration, the US declared the Houthis a terror organisation. This too did not help in stopping the war in Yemen.
While Biden is targeting the removal of Saudi Prince Mohammad Bin Salman from power, he is softening US attitude towards the Houthis.
