That whole Yemen disaster reminds me of the Toyota War, aka when Tchadians Chads kicked out a superior Libyan force and actually started invading Libya back
Serious replies only please. Why are Saudi and Emiratiniggers so incompetent? They have a massive numerical and technological advantage over the Houthis, yet they're actually *LOSING* the battle for Hudaydah. Why?
>we've taken the airport! >the houthis are fleeing to the mountains! one week later
twitter.com/YemeniObserv/status/1008783179103330306 >More moments of today's fights. The Southern Resistance is retreating despite air support. >Houthi continue offensive on Hodeida highway area. Caiman and two MaxxPro MRAPs were completely destroyed.
I'm not talking about just arabs though, the Houthis are arabs too and are doing just fine. I've seen this article, but it seems that the saudi and emirati forces have a special level of incompetence that goes well beyond this
care to explain bit more? Havet paid attention to US politics lately but I expect Muttis to be on right side
William Ward
>this is in opposition to what the Pentagon wants and Muttis wants What they want?
Alexander White
Hey /sg/ is regular's circle jerk still a thing?
Robert Robinson
Their troops are incompetent mercenaries with low morale and their tacticians are equally incompetent. They just roll along the coast thinking they'll steamroll Hudeydah from one direction and can't defend their only supply line for shit.
Jace Cox
>so incompetent? because the KSA is still very tribal based despite pretending to be a modern state so you have C&C issues, general morale problems, and they're super reliant on western nations to provide "advisors" and what not for specialist positions that they don't trust or don't want to train for. They also don't really have much of a game plan in Yemen either.
the Houthis on the other hand have been fighting for decades and Yemen has also had a long history of martial prowess for the last 1000+ years
They didn't want it happen at all, or if it did to make it a meme dept under the airforce, similar to how the marines work with being subordinate to the navy
US military is completely overstretched and understaffed from grunts to officers to equipment Space Force simply adds on to that strain
Lincoln Brown
Yeah but Houtis as well as ISIS or Al Qaeda aren't corrupted state armies. Their survival relies on ability and you don't get promoted for shitty political reasons. Thoses non state militias are especially well organised with a competent leadership, and they have a very strict discipline due to their religious motivation. They are way closer to a Western army than thoses Gulf pseudo armies in term of thinking, adaptability and philosophy when ot comes to promotions for exemple. Add that to the utter inepty of Arab armies (cf my link) it's no wonder Saudis are being fucked hard

Cooper Green
>US military is completely overstretched and understaffed from grunts to officers to equipment >Space Force simply adds on to that strain Eh, I thought they have some kind of vision for future space warfare. Like satellites-killer, satellites which carry tactical nukes, planes which can go into/out of space on whim, god knows whatnot.
Nicholas King
They get promoted because of theyre connection Not because of theyre abilitys. This is actually a major problem in all arab militarys.
i bet theyll give him off to some dude since they have learned from his behavior he is degenerate and therefor what to be more modern and progressive and help him achieve his goal of being the bottom of some jordanian dude who he gets to cook for.
>I thought they have some kind of vision for future space warfare. Like satellites-killer, satellites which carry tactical nukes, planes which can go into/out of space on whim, god knows whatnot. Ideas like that get thrown around constantly m8 none of them make it off the drawing board for a variety of reasons, but yes generally speaking the US military is running behind most of their peer competitors in a lot of relevant fields.
It's happening again AHAHAHAHA HOE HUE HUE HUE OH NO NO NO NO NO NO NO THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING DRUMPF PLS SAVE US ISRAEL HALP!!!11 ITS THOSE DAMN IRANIANS AGAIN WE'LL WIN NEXT TIME!
no i'm not even watching that garbage. just wanted to know who won

>very tribal, leads to C&C issues I'm curious, care to elaborate?
Landon Hernandez
why do they split the coast?
Levi Peterson
Richest nations in the ME can't buy themselves enough mercenaries to defend their supply lines against a faction in the poorest nation of the ME, or even hire tacticians that understand they'll have to capture Zabid, Hays, Bayt al-Faqih, etc to secure the coast. Hilarious tbqhfamalamadingdong
KSA still has tribes that dominate the politics of the kingdom and that stretches into the military as well. Not all tribes get along, and you have all the extended family rivalries That and the Saudis have a shit officer corps
Blake Morales
The mercenary army is so dumb, they only control the highway along the coast. The Houthis easily cuts this highway to destroy the supply line for the offensive on Houdeydah. The Ithriya-Raqqa offensive in 2016 made more sense than this.
Jace Ross
is it over?
Landon Price
This
Why in the actual god damn fuck would you do an offensive to a city WHEN YOU CAN'T EVEN SECURE LAND BEYOND THE HIGHWAY. Some god damn retard on Jow Forums could be in charge of this and he'd have gotten to Hudaydah in a day.
This is miles below Soleimani-tier tactics, a child could draw up the plans to easily counter the salafiniggers here. Somehow i think the west are sabotaging this offensive so they can sell more weapons and vehicles.
Breaking: Syrian Army liberates new Iraqi border region, meets up with Hashd Al-Shaabi
BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:35 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has liberated an Iraqi border region in southeast Syria, today, following a fierce battle against the so-called Islamic State (ISIS).
Backed by the National Defense Forces (NDF) and Hezbollah, the Syrian Arab Army was able to completely overwhelm the remaining Islamic State terrorists south of the Humaymah area this evening.
With ISIS struggling to hold their ground, the Syrian Army and their allies managed to liberate the Bir Tayyarah and Bir Umm Salabikh regions.
Following the liberation of these areas in southern Deir Ezzor, the Syrian Army and their allies finally cracked the last Islamic State defenses to reach the Iraqi border.
>Somehow i think the west are sabotaging this offensive so they can sell more weapons and vehicles. tinfoil intensifies I don't really get how they can consistently make stupid shit; my personal theory is that they believe their own propaganda and underestimate Houthis constantly

They have a shit officer corps BECAUSE of tribal politics

Exclusive: Syrian Army’s elite group redeploys from Golan region to lead east Daraa offensive
BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:45 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army’s elite 42nd Brigade (Ghiath Forces) of the 4th Division has been given orders to redeploy from the occupied Golan Heights region to the eastern countryside of the Dara’a Governorate, an officer from the unit told Al-Masdar News this evening.
According to the officer, the 42nd Brigade will be leading the offensive to retake the strategic Nassib Crossing in southeast Dara’a.
The 42nd Brigade will be joined by a number of brigades from the 4th and 7th divisions, along with several units from the Republican Guard.
According to a military source in Damascus, the Syrian Arab Army’s first major operation in the Dara’a Governorate will concentrate on the eastern countryside of the province.
In particular, the Syrian military offensive will focus on the Nassib Crossing and the towns surrounding this imperative border region.
Don't respond to the attention whore, just report for off-topic.
Cooper Brooks
Is it just me or are Houthis winning land every offensive against them?
Jaxon Powell
Sadly thats not entirely true, they did lose some areas over the years but I think its safe to say theyre doing better than most observers/"experts" expected
>redeploy from the occupied Golan Heights region to the eastern countryside of the Dara’a Governorate >to retake the strategic Nassib Crossing in southeast Dara’a >first major operation in the Dara’a Governorate will concentrate on the eastern countryside of the province. Hmm, was the posturing around the triangle of death just a trick or is there an under-the-table agreement with Israel to avoid fighting near their borders [spoiler]for now[/spoiler]?
>Somehow i think the west are sabotaging this offensive so they can sell more weapons and vehicles. Makes sense, knowing these dumb Gulf faggots will sign more contracts anyway
did you finish your trannification you subhuman shit?
Daniel Hughes
By the way Jews just offed a general, a few colonels and majors and got away with it. It feels weird, imagine if Syrian drone fucked a few Israeli high ranking officers like this. Scandal!
