🚨🇺🇸🇸🇦 In a recent New York Times opinion piece, Saudi Ambassador Reema Bandar Al-Saud @rbalsaud made a striking comparison between the fight against ISIS and the challenge posed by the terrorist Houthis: “ISIS was defeated by local forces backed by a coalition of more than 80 nations. The Houthis can be defeated the same way. It is Yemen’s fight to lead.” Back in 2014–2015, when ISIS was tearing through Iraq and Syria, the world didn’t just throw together a military coalition. What happened was a rare alignment of self-interest. Countries that normally disagreed on almost everything recognized that the cost of doing nothing was higher than the cost of cooperating. The Houthis, a terrorist group, have demonstrated capabilities that pose regional and international security concerns, with Iranian support playing a significant role. They’ve launched more than a thousand ballistic missiles and drones at Saudi Arabia. They’ve threatened the Bab al-Mandab Strait, a critical chokepoint for global trade. Their activities have also raised concerns about weapons proliferation, regional militancy, and the recruitment and indoctrination of children. A disruption to Saudi energy production or export routes could raise fuel, transport, and manufacturing costs worldwide, feeding inflation and squeezing households and businesses far beyond the region. With ISIS, the death toll and refugee waves hit European and American communities hard enough to force the issue. Much of the human cost of the Houthi threat, by contrast, has fallen on Yemenis and Saudis, while many foreign capitals continue to treat it as a regional problem. She’s not just saying we need another coalition of more than 80 nations. She’s pointing to a lesson from the fight against ISIS: international cooperation becomes possible when enough countries recognize that the threat extends beyond any single region. By the time a major disruption to shipping drives up prices for consumers in Chicago or Hamburg, or advances in missile technology create a more immediate threat to distant countries, the cost of responding could be much higher. Saudi Arabia is working with Yemeni partners, helping counter weapons smuggling, restricting financial channels, and providing humanitarian assistance. Countries should designate the Houthis as a terrorist organization, cut off their funding, intercept weapons shipments at sea, and strengthen support for Yemen’s legitimate government. Saudi Arabia has a legitimate interest in defending its people and territory and preventing Yemen from becoming a permanent platform for cross-border attacks and regional instability. At the same time, lasting security cannot be built on military pressure alone. It requires a viable Yemeni state, functioning institutions, humanitarian relief, and a political future in which Yemenis, not armed factions backed by outside powers, determine their country’s direction. Any effective response must be coordinated, grounded in international law, attentive to civilian protection, and paired with a credible path toward peace. Saudi Arabia should not have to wait for the rest of the world to feel the danger before that danger is acknowledged. Saudi Arabia’s security, regional security, Yemen’s stability, global energy security, and the freedom of international navigation are inseparable parts of that challenge. PEACE IS NEVER SECURED BY IGNORING THE THREAT.
The terrorist Houthi militias have shown the world what they are capable of. Their threat extends far beyond Saudi Arabia and Yemen. In @nytopinion, I explain why the international community can no longer afford to underestimate them. nytimes.com/2026/10/27/opini…

Many analysts described it as an advice visit, to respond to peace efforts, which is a continuation of what the brothers did in Qatar and Pakistan, and it has nothing to do with the situation of the Houthis, neither near or far.

The Houthi threat to the Red Sea is more than a decade old, built with Iranian weapons and guidance. Its victims are civilian mariners of many nations, and the economies it damages include those of East Africa, Egypt, Jordan, Israel, and Europe. With Hormuz disrupted, the Red Sea is increasingly important to global energy markets; an attack there is an attack on every economy that depends on that route. This month, Houthi missiles struck Riyadh’s airport, killing travelers and workers of at least eight nationalities, an American among them, and wounding hundreds more, pilgrims bound for Mecca among them. To leave this fight to Saudi Arabia alone would be a failure of collective security. There is no world order worth the name if its members will not stand together against those who attack it most violently and openly declare they will continue.
Today's #MustRead from the Saudi ambassador to the United States: "The Houthis have no red lines. There is no limit to what they will inflict on those they call enemies. They compel students as young as 10 to chant 'Death to America' and send thousands of children into combat. The radical indoctrination must be stopped." nytimes.com/2026/10/27/opini…

زيارة وزير الدفاع السعودي الأمير #خالد_بن_سلمان برفقة وزير الدفاع الباكستاني عاصم منير، ووزير الدفاع التركي إبراهيم قالن، إلى طهران، هي محاولة لتجنب تجدد الحرب بين الولايات المتحدة وإسرائيل وإيران، وحماية المنطقة من تبعاتها. •تدعم هذه الزيارة الوساطة القطرية الباكستانية، وتمنح #إيران فرصة أخيرة لمنع حرب أوسع قد تطال إيران ودول الخليج والمنطقة بأسرها، بما في ذلك الدول التي لا تشترك في حدود مع إيران. •ستدافع السعودية وتركيا وباكستان عن شعوبها وأراضيها وبنيتها التحتية الحيوية. أي هجوم إيراني على أي دولة عضو سيُفعّل التزامات الدفاع الجماعي لحلف مكة لحماية بلدانها وأمن المنطقة. •أعتقد أن هذه الزيارة لا علاقة لها بالحوثيين، ولم تكن مدرجة على جدول أعمال الاجتماع. إنهم ميليشيا إرهابية لا قيمة لها ولا ثقل استراتيجي، حتى بالنسبة لإيران. •قد يؤدي تجدد الحرب دون خطة فعّالة لاحتواء التصعيد إلى اضطرابات في أسواق الطاقة والشحن والتجارة العالمية. ويتطلب منع هذا السيناريو دبلوماسية جادة واستعدادًا واضحًا للرد على أي عدوان.
🚨🇮🇷 The Tehran visit by Saudi Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman @kbsalsaud 🇸🇦, alongside Pakistan’s Asim Munir 🇵🇰 and Türkiye’s Ibrahim Kalın 🇹🇷, is an effort to avert renewed war between the United States 🇺🇸, Israel and Iran and protect the region from its consequences. — This visit supports Qatari and Pakistani mediation and gives Iran a last chance to prevent a wider war that could engulf Iran, the Gulf states and the wider region, including countries without borders with Iran. — Saudi Arabia, Türkiye and Pakistan will defend their people, territory and critical infrastructure. An Iranian attack on any member would trigger the Mecca Pact’s collective defence commitments to safeguard their countries and regional security. — I believe this visit had nothing to do with the Houthis, and they were not on the meeting’s agenda. They are a terrorist militia with no value or strategic weight, even to Iran. — Renewed war without a credible plan to contain escalation could send shocks through energy markets, shipping and global trade. Preventing that outcome requires serious diplomacy and a clear readiness to respond to aggression. 🔴 Mohammed Alhamed

فعلًا أ. داوود، المطلوب اليوم ليس التحذير من التسييس فحسب، بل تمكين المواطن من المعرفة، وتسهيل الوصول إلى المعلومات، وتعزيز مهارات الحوار وترسيخ ثقافته. والأهم تزويد الصحفيين والكتّاب بالمعلومات، وعدم الاكتفاء بالبيانات الرسمية. الوعي السياسي لا يعني تحويل كل قضية إلى معركة، بل تمكين المواطن من فهم قضايا وطنه والدفاع عن مصالحه بوعي ومسؤولية.

الفارق بين أحمد الشرع وعبد الملك الحوثي هو الفارق بين عقلية الثورة وعقلية الدولة؛ فالشرع انتقل من قيادة فصيل مسلح إلى رئاسة دولة تسعى لبناء مؤسساتها واستعادة حضورها الدولي، بينما بقي الحوثي متمسكاً بمنطق الجماعة المسلحة، خارج إطار الدولة، ومدرجاً على قوائم الإرهاب الأمريكية. فالانتقال من الثورة إلى الدولة لا يُقاس بالشعارات، بل بالقدرة على بناء المؤسسات والتخلي عن منطق السلاح.

Diplomacy with a clear readiness to respond is the only formula that prevents wars rather than just ending them. Well said.

Iran has been the primary rival to Saudi supremacy in the Muslim world. This pact would isolate Iran and end its bid for Islamic global power.

one of the major issues with these accounts is they spread the lies in coordination with the Houthis on social media blindly trying to give them an hour or so of false wins, they started with a false narrative of targeting MOD, then spreading the lies then they fail to prove then the truth comes out and they fail to spread the truth any ways here are your failed Houthi narrative you POS nitter.siddz.com/Osint613/status/211509…

ساذج وأحمق -سياسيًا-من يعتقد ان زيارة طهران من قبل دول تحالف مكة هدفه هو الحديث عن هجمات ميليشيا الحوثي على السعودية ،الحرب بين امريكا واسرائيل من جهة وايران من جهة أخرى مقبلة مرة أخرى وستتجدد وسيعود الخليج -بكل دوله-الى ما كان عليه في بداية الحرب من استهداف ايراني لبنيته التحتية ولمدنييه وستنفتح ابواب الجحيم على ايران وكل المنطقة ، ان لم تنجح الوساطة القطرية وزيارة دول حلف مكة التي جاءت اكمالًا للوساطة القطرية في الوصول لحل سلمي يحول دون هذه الكارثة .. لهذا ولهذا فقط كانت الزيارة، من لايدرك هذا هو قصير النظر بل لا نظر لديه أصلًا.. ماهو مقبل ان لم تنجح الجهود في منعه كارثي لكل المنطقة لايران واذرعها اولًًا وللخليج كله بلا استثناء ولاقتصاد العالم بأسره..
