U.S. approves $1.15 billion sale of tanks, equipment to Saudi Arabia

Since the start of the war, the Zaydi Shia Houthis have released videos of their troops destroying Saudi tanks and other targets with missiles. They have also shelled towns inside the Kingdom, some of which have been evacuated. Yemeni troops loyal to the Houthis ally former President Ali Abdullah Saleh have launched Scud missiles at Saudi airbases and other targets. The Saudis have used Patriot missiles to intercept at least a dozen Scuds, and this week reported two more ballistic missiles were intercepted by Saudi defense measures.

Will the US soon create another "coaliation force" like in Syria, but this time with boots on the ground?

So other than oil, what other reason are we so interested in the middle east?

Overall control of oil production and mean of payment. If OPEC countries start to trade oil using Euro or Chinese RMB, that would be the end of USD dominance, which would cripple our economy.

This. Saudi dollar is pegged to ours. Saudis make a lot of oil. Ergo, USD runs the oil market.

Saudi dollar is irrelevant here. International oil trade is solely using USD, and that's both the reason and result of American infulence in the Middle East.

It's literally just oil and trying to keep sand nigs from bombing us.

We don't even use very much Middle Eastern oil but if sand niggers managed to stop production of Gulf Oil, then the economies of Europe, Japan and China would all go down the shitter and we'd go with them.
