Game changer: Houthis attack Saudi tankers bringing crisis to a new levelMartin Jay – Strategic Review July 24, 2026The unintended consequences of meddling in matters you have no idea about – or, put more in popular social media terms, “f–cking around and finding out” – is about to hit Donald Trump in the coming hours.

Presumably MBS and his cronies are not body-slamming one another after they decided that bombing the Houthis was a smart move. There’s no way Iran is going to lose. That’s where we are with this insane president who started out wanting a better deal than the black man in the White House.”
