Oil Prices: Don’t blame Russia, blame U.S./Saudi proxy war against Iran in Yemen!

Western news media and governments continually blame the Russian operation in Ukraine for the high oil/Natural Gas prices.  Western news media ignores the reality that the eight years war in Yemen is about control of oil and Natural Gas operations in Yemen, and it is now destroying what was once a secure source of the world’s biggest oil and Natural Gas operations, in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia!

How about that eight years long (started when Barack Obama was U.S. President) U.S./Kingdom of Saudi Arabia(KSA) proxy war against Iran in Yemen?  When did it ‘go-south’ for the Western World?

On 24MAR2022, the general in charge of the remnants of the pro-U.S./KSA Yemeni ‘government in exile’ (Al-Anad Axis, aka Southern Transitional Council) in the city of Aden, was assassinated by either a missile strike, car bomb or possibly two suicide bombers (reports vary). Several people were killed, but another general escaped the attack:

Amazingly, during the distraction that was/is The Pandemic, Iran backed (supposedly) rebels in Yemen began kicking ass, effectively taking control of Yemen in 2021 (not mentioned by U.S. main stream news).  Now, the Iran backed Yemenis are kicking KSA’s ass by successfully launching drone (unmanned aerial vehicle) and tactical ballistic missile strikes at KSA oil operations.

Last week, KSA suffered such a devastating attack on its oil industry by Iran back Yemenis, that KSA officials issued a statement saying they “won’t bear any responsibility” for global oil shortages or high prices, as a result of the Yemenis kicking their ass.

Today, KSA’s Energy Minister admitted that KSA can no longer guarantee “our ability to supply the world with the necessary energy requirements.” 

Interestingly, current U.S. President Joe Biden (former Vice President under Barack Obama) removed Iranian backed Yemeni rebels from the U.S. terrorist list.  The KSA used that as a reason not to increase oil or Natural Gas production to help bring down prices caused by the Ukraine Crisis, in other words, Biden pissed off his former boss’s buddies.

A reminder that Biden promised to end the war in Yemen, but the reality is that it is expanding, helped by his policy:

It should be noted that the U.S. military’s Arica Command (AfriCom) Combined Joint Task Force-Horn of Africa considers Yemen (which is not part of Africa) to be part of its area of responsibility.
