    -saleh when he was in power and his supporters had 6 wars with Houthes , they are not the best friends to begin with, they acts like thieves who had multiple internal war over control or who could steal more money from the central banks and such , they often accused each other of betrayals

    -media echoed what Houthes said with little distinction: those iranian sleeping cell parroted the news as it is from iranian media with a typical headline of : American/Saudi, or israeli/Saudi did this or that

    -there is a slim possibility it was an answer to what's happening in Aleppo , like when Putin threaten Turkey/Saudi of using nuclear tactical weapons, they showed him this : (notice how Iranian media labeled this as dual attack ), but I lean toward it was a mistake or internal thieves fights , Saleh lost his strong man in the attack after all

    Reject Salafi Arabia's oil? You can't convince a majority of CF to support the 9/11 bill.


    Thank god Clinton wants to bomb Syria because of the "humanitarian crises".

    The ones that aren't belly up every time prices dip regardless of global or domestic glut are probably too diversified into ancillary links in the chain. Refiners, terminal operators, pipeline operators, commercial ports, wholesale distributors, retail fuelers, which of these Texas oilmen wants less options for oil supply and pricing? How about services companies, IT consulting firms or all the MBAs, engineers and lawyers whose skills transfer to all these sub-sectors?

    I don't understand what you are saying, all those folks would benefit from $75 oil and would prefer the certainty of domestic sources over the high risk dependency on the Persian Gulf. It would also benefit the expansion of the renewable industries to not have to compete with Saudi efforts to limit competition.

    As it stands now, how would a little Iran/Saudi shooting war effect them over the short term?

    huh? how does all this "prove" that it's "more likely these Iranian militias" was responsible for this funeral home bombing? Like I said before, this funeral home bombings are the result of several consecutive air strikes (every media source is saying its the result of air strikes and there are even videos showing the 2nd, 3rd & 4th air strikes). Only the Saudi-coalition operate combat aircrafts in Yemen, the Iranians with their old & obsolete air force are not capable of conducting any air missions in Yemen even if they wanted to.
