Why isn't the Yemen War covered by the news more?

It's awkward Shia/Sunni stuff ultimately, so the media won't touch it to not appear islamophobic. Avoiding islamophobia is actually a long term strategy.

>very few reporters want to go anywhere near Yemen, the Houthi controlled areas where most atrocities happen forbid Westerners from coming

>most international reporters who cover the Middle East will be in Iraq or Syria

>Saudis own a lot of the mainstream media

>The Shia-Sunni stuff doesn't make sense to mainstream audiences
>>
>>126664347
Media only cares about Jews killing muslims, if they kill each other then it's just what they do and that's not news
>>
>>126664347
Why is the smoke black? I though they are shell are shot by nitrocelulose
>>
Because the cryptokike saudi monarchy tell their shills in the MSM to never mention how Obama began bombing Yemen for Saudi Arabia, because the Saudi army got the shit blown out of it by Yemenese who want freedom from being ruled by an islamic theocratic monarchy. Guess that's what happens when you send all the young arabs who know how to fight off to jihad in other countires, you're just left with the guys too rich to go self-detonate themselves for King Salman and Greater Israel.

artillery officer here. that artillery piece doesn't have shell casings. There are bags of gunpowder behind the 155. Never seen black smoke like that but it's definitely because of the gunpowder.

Uhh pretty sure the Houthis are even more of a batshit death cult than the previous Yemen government
>>
>>126665704

Poor maintenance, perhaps?
>>
Because there's almost nothing to cover. The sides within Yemen are vague, no one's sure who's who, no one's sure why the Saudis are there or how they keep losing ground periodically, and everyone is starving now.

I wonder how much coverage of Iran/Iraq there was in the 80s.

>>126664347
because there is a stargate in the gulf of aden

no, it's because Saudis are invading, and they're the bff of US gov. along with bff of Israel.

you can't convince people that Iran is bad when you tell them Iran is helping Yemen defend against a saudi invasion

I'm just a lowly chemistry undergrad, but i lived with a conviction that modern artillery uses smokless gunpowder, that is nitrocelulose which is... smokless

fuck off manlet diaspora. iran is funding terrorists in yemen just like they dif in iraq. bush should have invaded your shit country and lynched the dutch nigger and belgian nigger parliment

Population has a lot to do with it too. Yemen's millennial population dwarfs that of Saudi. They want to beat them now before Yemen is strong enough to challenge them

saudis are literally a time bomb.

they have nothing other than oil. US has fracking, and soon enough will dump the arab cucks.then they are as good as dead.

This

Google search "ongoing military conflicts" and scroll through the list.

According to the media there is only 1 war and that war is in Syria.

Interesting, isn't it?

Saudi Arabia is an (((ally))) so of course they won't report on their humiliation.

It will be a sink or swim moment though. It's kind of like daddy giving u 10k every week for years and then cutting it off.

It probably won't be pretty.

Yes, good point.

Saudis are so incompetent they can't defend stoned goat herders.

>>126668657
They have been trying to diversify, but no one, especially the Saudi's seem to believe it's going to work.

Saudi's like all arabs are fucking retarded, they are mentally incapable of running these business they are bringing in and have to rely on foreigners to do the actual work for them. That's fine as long as you have oil money to fund it all, but once the oil money disappears so will the other business.

10,000 Yemenis are worth less than 1 White Person. Frankly they can't kill each other fast enough.

You're probably right, i've seen that they pay top money to their youth to recieve wester education, but i don't see them really putting their hearts in it

The other money goes to opening mosques and other islamic organisations all over Europe.

Nice trips

>>126664347
Because Saudis are our greatest allies aside from Israel, so it doesn't really fit into any geopolitical goals that the media is payed to push.
>>
deep state controls media

deep state wants to keep selling arms to saudis

deep state wants the bombing in yemen to continue
>>
>>126664347
Saudis are losing bad
>>126665519
It's because Israel is a nice country that tolerates journalists. Countries like Egypt and turkey are wore in their human rights violation but they imprison and torture journalists so only brave souls report there.

Its inconvenient in about 19363518461444 ways to ((their)) agenda.
>Daily massacres from the air, all commited by brown people against brown people, ends the narrative that Muslims are not to blame for their own violence
>Western governments and their allies are propping up AQ directly/indirectly by fighting their enemies (houthi and saleh forces are really the only people who have actually fought AQAP, but ((they)) want everyone to believe theyre the bad guys)
>West dont dare criticize coalition because the Houthis slogan is so anti-western
>Yemenis are poor, dont have oil and have nothing of $$$$ value so no one cares what happens to them
>Brave, faithful Houthi/Saleh underdogs are BTFO'ing the nation with the 3rd highest military expenditure, ruining the narrative of Western military power being undefeatable

Look at your countries flag.
Remember whos dogs you are.

Look who is fucking up Yemen.
Remember whos dogs they are.

Now return sucking Shlomos dick.
