What is going on in Yemen is very interesting and potentially explosive for the entire region. Remember the proxy war in Yemen in the 1960s that pitted Saudi Arabia against Nasser's Egypt. Gregory Gause has a good book on that early phase of Saudi-Yemeni relations. Saudi Arabia is basically claiming that they are bombing the Hawthi rebels because the Hawithis tried to invade Saudi Arabia. I kid you...
