Saudi Arabia is strong with its Islamic nation

The Yemeni Houthi militia's escalation of its operations against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is not surprising to any neutral observer who has closely followed the developments of the US-Iranian war since it exploded seven months ago. In the beginning, the pace of developments began to accelerate, especially when the role of the Israeli partner was more effective than it is currently, but the pace took a path that slowed to the point of freezing at times, before it turned into a kind of puzzling puzzles when trying to decipher its codes, whether those issued by the White House, or by Tehran when it responded to Washington, or when it resorted to the tactic of complete silence in order to raise the level of confusion among others, while instructing its Houthi ally to jump. To the Bab al-Mandab Strait, for example, with the aim of easing the stifling siege around the Strait of Hormuz. If this adventurous chess move fails, Tehran returns to the approach of moving the Houthi militia outside the war front, and because Riyadh constitutes the most important center of gravity in the coalition supporting legitimacy in Yemen, it is not surprising, then, that it is at the forefront of the Houthi goals.

Of course, the leadership of the Houthi coup militia will claim that its escalation is a response to Saudi support for the “Yemen Dawn” campaign, which the Yemeni forces launched at the beginning of this month to restore the entire Yemeni territory to the embrace of internationally recognized legitimacy. But this claim is complete nonsense, and is not based on any logical basis to support it, because confrontations in wars take place on their front lines, and not in civilian airports, such as King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, in whose halls the blood of innocent civilians of many nationalities, who are not involved in the ongoing war inside Yemen, has spilled. As this is the documented reality, the Houthi bombing of Riyadh Airport is a blatant violation of all international conventions, and may constitute a “war crime” that requires an international investigation.

However, diving into the historical depth of what is currently happening will move the researcher to the most important dimension of any person, no matter how important his influence may seem at the present time, as is the case with the leader of the so-called “Ansar Allah” Houthi movement. The bombing of Riyadh International Airport is not far from the event of targeting Mecca a few weeks ago, nor is it separate from the approach of causing riots on the part of the “Revolutionary Guard” pilgrims during the Hajj season a few years ago.

The current attempt to target the security of Saudi Arabia, like its many predecessors across several historical stages, is doomed to a miserable failure, because Saudi Arabia is a regime based on Islamic law derived from a pure source, and therefore its Islamic nation will remain strong, and capable of deterring all attempts to target its security and the stability of its people. It derives its strength from the tremendous achievements it has achieved that have become the subject of admiration and appreciation for the entire world. It has deserved to become an international center of gravity that opponents will be unable to defeat, no matter how many times they try and how different their loyalties are.
