In a war, there are bound to be collateral damages, as much as I hate the word. Why are the Saudis being held to a much more higher standard than let's say the Syrians or the Russians? All three are conducting airstrikes against terrorists but only the Saudis seem to be called out on accidental civilian deaths. War is war and mistakes are hard to avoid, however doing nothing and letting the Houthis fester is a lot worse in my opinion. I have
Collateral damage? You can't be serious.
The world’s worst cholera epidemic has broken out in Yemen, partly because so many people are malnourished. Half a million people have cholera and 5,000 Yemenis are infected with cholera each day.
Millions are starving to death
1 in 3 air strikes hits a civilian target because they're so careless as to the consequences. They're committing war crimes and no one knows about it because journalists are banned.
Lol @ the ''West hates Saudi'' angle btw....the West (UK/US) provide support for this and turn a blind eye to the atrocities.
But the Houthis spreading corrupt ideology eh
FYI...it's not about Houthis..it's about regional hegemony. Don't be so quick to buy Saudi propaganda. They use their monopoly on Wahhabism just like every other tool.
Here is Sudais:
Sheikh Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais, head of the Presidency of the Two Holy Mosques, said that the Kingdom’s efforts to defend the oppressed and deter the oppressors have added prestige, power and glory to the Arab and Islamic nations.
In an interview with Saudi TV Channel 1, the widely respected religious scholar said Saudi Arabia has taken action which is supported by a number of Shariah laws.
Al-Sudais described Operation Decisive Storm, which was launched on the orders of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman, “as a historic decision that came at the right time.”
“The wise and brave operation was initiated keeping in view the provisions of Shariah laws,” he said.
“It was not dependent on personal or political gains.”
He said any threat to the Kingdom and any evil intention toward the two Holy Mosques in Makkah and Madinah cannot be tolerated.
