"During his Senate confirmation hearing on Tuesday, Secretary of State-designate Anthony Blinken said President Joe Biden’s administration would end U.S. support for Saudi Arabia’s military intervention in Yemen, which in Blinken’s words had “contributed to … the worst humanitarian situation anywhere in the world.”
I sure hope so.
So I guess the Saudis will have to cozy up to the Russians or Chinese to keep the war going. How nice that Biden drove them into the arms of nations that are politically opposed to us...
It won't stop the Saudi's. It just changes who gets to sell them arms and ammunition.

My comment is accurate. Do you really think the Saudi's won't go elsewhere for arms and munitions if the US cuts them off? They have the cash to buy them, and the oil to sell to China. Russia would love to have another client state in the Middle East.
It isn't a negative spin on what Biden's doing, its an accurate one. Nothing like this occurs in a vacuum. If Biden cuts off military support to the Saudi's they go somewhere else. Maybe if not Russia and China, then France. The French sell arms too. It changes nothing about the situation between the Saudi's and Yemen.

Nah - it's what I have seen everyone on the right do. Here, on Fox, pretty much everywhere.
They have basically proclaimed that they will not give Biden credit, for anything, no matter what. Some - especially here - have stated it proudly.
There is a credibility issue when it's clear that no credit is to be given no matter what the circumstances.
The problem is Biden's tilt to Iran, by removing sanctions in return fr Iran not building nukes
( they have been doing miniaturization as well as increasing ICBM range)
The war in Yemen is a KSA problem, but it's also a regional problem with Iran supplying weapons to the Houthi.
If we dont' counter that with weapons to KSA ( and logistical support)
it allows Iran proxy control on the Arabian Penninsula

This at least is an attempt to stop one of the most horrible genocides of the modern era.
Trump's sanctions upon Turkey our supposed NATO ally is far more absurd.
Turkey got sanctions for buying a Russian Air Defense system.
Ridiculous.
Now Turkey might join Russia & Iran, if you ask me.
