Houthis Pound Saudi Airports & Trump Throws Putin a Lifeline | EYES ON GEOPOLITICS

Description

We break down the escalating Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia, the growing pressure on Riyadh’s air defenses, and whether the U.S. could be pulled into a new campaign in Yemen. We also discuss Trump’s Russian diesel deal, Iran’s use of Moscow as a diplomatic channel, and the deeper political dysfunction and public apathy shaping American decision-making.VAER Watches ⬇️https://www.vaerwatches.com/theteamhouse get a free watch roll with your purchase.20% for active duty, veteran, leo, & first responders Support the show on Patreon:⬇️https://www.patreon.com/TheTeamHouseJack's news outlet:⬇️https://thehighside.substack.com/Find Jon Hackett here:⬇️Jon's Twitter:https://x.com/jonathanhackettJon's LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejonathanhackettJon's books:https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B0C5L659N5?ccs_id=e11a2062-f8d3-498e-bfd7-7d2f3869caf6Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejonathanhackettTwitter: https://x.com/jonathanhackettFind Andy Milburn here: Twitter ⬇️https://twitter.com/i/flow/login?redirect_after_login=%2Fandymilburn8LinkedIn ⬇️https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewmilburn2023Substack ⬇️https://amilburn.substack.com/Andy’s book ⬇️https://www.amazon.com/When-Tempest-Gathers-Mogadishu-Operations00:00 – Start00:19 – Houthis Strike Saudi Airports01:20 – Deadly Ballistic Missile Attack on Riyadh Airport03:30 – Houthis Warn Airlines Away From Saudi Airspace04:40 – Is Saudi Arabia Running Low on Air Defense Interceptors?06:30 – Should the U.S. Strike Houthi Missile Launchers?07:30 – An American Killed in the Airport Attack09:19 – Saudi-Backed Ground Offensive in Yemen11:13 – Jack Joins the Conversation11:32 – Is Iran Opening a Second Front Through the Houthis?13:44 – What a New U.S. Air Campaign in Yemen Could Look Like14:46 – Could the U.S. Put Ground Troops Into Yemen?16:51 – Could Saudi Forces Handle the Ground War?19:48 – Would Another Air Campaign Against the Houthis Work?22:15 – The Real Goal: Protecting Saudi Arabia23:31 – Bab al-Mandab, Houthi Missiles & the Ground Offensive25:37 – Trump’s Russia
