What is the parameter for judging a nation in desperation?


Israel is having the time of their life: 60% of Gaza harnessed

50% of Lebanon is harnessed. West Bank, Judah and Samaria, as well as mout hermon


Hamas and Hezebollah decapitated beyond recognition


Explain the desperation


Their Ben Gurion Airport is filled up with US Refuellers and fight jets yet no attack


Where is the desperation?




GuestInfinity:
Israel is so desperate that they don't care about damaging other countries to survive. Just like how they've dragged the US down, they will do the same to Saudi. There's a reason why you should be cautious of people or nations in survival mode. I don't blame Israel

So because they have the most profitable company in the world another country should not have peace?

Do you know how many years the Saudi has been bombing Yemen? Just take your time and read what they did to them unprovoked.

Basicend:
Why will a sane and progressive minded human wish that hopeless Iran thugs like Houthis will keep destroying a very organized and developing country like Saudi?

Do you know that Saudi Aramco was the most profitable company in the whole world last year by net? So you prefer their facilities being damaged?

People like you are the ones hailing Boko and herdsmen to keep destroying Nigeria in the name of religion.

What’s your definition of a terrorist supporter?

Seems you forgot your ancestors who stood against imperialism and colonialism were terrorists too?

So terrorism is rebuking western propagation of imperialism and colonialism?

I have no problem with you. I know how people who have been mentally conquered reason.
A Terrorist group destroyed and destabilized YEMEN and you are here praising them...
No wonder those Terrorists in your country are g gaining round speedily and likely to overthrow your government soon to your admiration

Yemenis only live to fight and die. Saudis enjoy the best of life, and don't want to die.

Saudi could have rallied her brothers and stopped the genocide in Palestine.

Saudi was in position to take sides or mediate with Iran on his nuclear program.

It failed to do and now that everywhere is burning down, the crown prince is busy calling Trump.

You couldn’t mend fences at home but had to call North America.
To even think the large majority of Palestinian muslims are Sunni, just like Saudi Arabia but of course Bin Salman prefers to be US and Israel's hoe and let Gaza burn.

On Iran's nuclear program, I doubt Saudi can do much on the mediation side given they've been long standing strategic, political and geopolitical rivals with Iran, they're also divided across the Shia-Sunni lines too. Logically Saudi Arabia should have good relationship with Iran but this is realpolitik where sometimes, geopolitics defies logic.

US provided fighter jets which the effectiveness heavily relies on the ability of the pilot to use it. What's the US business here? As a matter of fact, the US gains cause Saudi will have to buy another one from the US.

You nailed it at some point!

But it was a sacrifice any sensible nation will be willing to make for peace irrespective of differences.

Is it now better now that they stood on the sides and watch everything burn down?

Many of you dabble into discourses that's above your pay grade. Who are those that considers the entire Saudi Arabia as "Holy Land"? Aside the holy cites of Makkah and Madina (which nothing will happen to), nobody gives two Kobo what happens to the rest of Saudi Arabia.

Dont be too sure about all these your assertions
these are not assertion, this is reality

Trump is stuck in a war he doesn't know when or how to end

The ripple effects is costing the middle east economies, security etc

It's commonsensical since america has lost its mojo of control and deterrence why not make peace with Iran and throw america under the bus

It's the only thing Iran asked for and america itself can't safe the region from Iran and it's proxies

The Gulf nations were supposed to go to Iran this week to discuss lasting peace without the usa present, until Saudi decided to give it a try on the houtis and see what happens before crawling back to talk

It's no wonder they say eloquence should never be assumed as a measure of intelligence.

Dogalmighty17:
The Houthis have created their own SAM. This changes everything. This shows that they aren't just a rag tag group but are an organisation with some serious capabilities. They have developed their own ballistic missiles as well and have occasionally targeted Israel with it.

What does this mean? This means that Saudi Arabia cannot bomb the Houthis recklessly anymore without expecting a Houthi response. Developing and fielding an active surface to air missile is a level of complexity that few nations have been able to achieve and yet the Houthis have done it. It is only a matter of time before the develop ballistic missiles with precise targeting abilities.

The Saudis don't have F-35 fighter jets so only Israel and the US can take on the Houthis presently and Israel really doesn't want that smoke now and the US secretly sent officials to meet with Houthi leadership last night. So the US too isn't that keen on attacking the Houthis. Besides the last time the US bombed them, it did little to change the situation until the US got bored and left.
Israel are not afraid of those smokes when threatened and the Houtis and Iran know their capabilities, how ruthless they can be

It's not that easy even if he wants to make the sacrifices. The blowback from US especially would be huge, don't forget Saudi has almost 1 trillion $ investment in USA which may come under jeopardy if Saudi starts balancing relationship with a major US's adversary in the region, so Saudi already has US and Israel's d!ck deep in its throat.

Bin Salman laid his bed, he will lie in it. That's why Henry Kissinger said it's fatal to be America's friend.

Iran and the Houtis have tested Israel and know it's ever war ready, it's still a mirage how Iran attacking Kuwait, Bahrain and other gulf state for hosting USA soldiers and facilities excluding Israel that's hosting thousands of American soldiers and equipments, is that not JuJu. For Houtis they know they ain't match to Israel.

Which pilots have been flying the numerous F-15s Iran has shot down around the middle east in the last four months?
