Saudis Resume Terror-Bombing Yemen<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Saudis operate like America and Israel. They say one thing. They do another. They represent pure evil.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
After Wednesday’s announced end to terror-bombing, Saudis resumed it on Thursday. It didn’t surprise. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Rogue states operate this way. Saudi despotism ranks with  the world’s worst. State terror is official policy – at home and in international relations.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Riyadh’s so-called political solution involves continued terror-war on 25 million Yemenis.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Reports indicate airstrikes targeted Taiz in Yemen’s southwest. Fighting continues in other areas – notably in the southern port city of Aden.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Saudi warships fired rockets and missiles at Yemeni targets. Eyewitnesses said they saw US warships doing the same thing.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Riyadh claims about it achieving its military objectives rang hollow when announced. Its peace offensive involves continued terror war – maybe including ground forces this time.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Saudis claim the right to “counter any military moves by the Houthis or their allies.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
International law stipulates their actions constitute naked aggression – the supreme high crime.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A separate article said Riyadh’s announced Renewal of Hope operation offers none.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
A senior Houthi official said its “aggression” didn’t end. “(N)othing has changed. They will see what happens soon.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Expect protracted conflict to continue. Expect continued US-orchestrated\/Saudi-led mass slaughter and destruction.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Expect no relief for long-suffering Yemenis. Expect a catastrophic humanitarian crisis to worsen.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Expect world leaders able to intervene responsibly to do nothing. Expect US-sponsored genocide against Yemenis to continue – maybe until the entire country is destroyed.<\/div>\n
