In the end.. looks like all the money in the world won’t save the House of Saud from the wrath of pissed off Yemeni mountain Arabs with AK’s and flip flops.

They are pissed off at House of Saud for ten years of unbelievable and unbridled savagery towards a fellow Muslim, Arab nation.

Ten years of starvation, war crimes and everything in their nation being destroyed by House of Saud.

I’d be pissed off as well and I would go for the jugular.

That’s what I mean by pissed off bit did not think I would have to spell it out all over again.

It's good to spell it out now and again. Don't forget to mention the efforts of the Obama administration in using a naval blockade to attempt to starve Yemen's people to death.

It's not "meddling" when someone Establishment approves does it.

When a Russian person expresses any opinion ever in any format, hell a Russian-language online chat room, that is "meddling" and "interference" and all votes contrary to the Establishment line are by definition invalid.

It is also well-known that Russian people have mysterious powers of psychic mind control, but that Establishment figures are immune.
