American defense official confirms US sending several destroyers, along with new fighter aircraft, B-52 strategic bombers & refueling tankers to the Middle East, in the coming days.

There are a lot of news about them, but most major news seems to be ignoring it.

It's very possible that Israel attacks tomorrow during US election, because most people won't care about international news when they are focused on the domestic circus.

-- Quelles sont les différences entre #sunnites et #chiites ?
https://www.lemonde.fr/les-decodeurs/article/2014/06/20/au-fait-quelle-difference-entre-sunnites-et-chiites_4442319_4355770.html

Une majorité de musulmans soutiennent Abou Bakr ( #sunnite), qui devient le premier calife. Depuis, les sunnites ont toujours été majoritaires. Ils représentent aujourd’hui environ 85 % des musulmans du monde. Les seuls pays à majorité #chiite sont l’Iran, l’Irak, l’Azerbaïdjan et Bahreïn, mais d’importantes minorités existent au Pakistan, en Inde, au Yémen, en Afghanistan, en Arabie saoudite et au Liban.

#Oman is the only country in the region that has closed its airspace to American and British planes bombing Yemen

Currently, Oman has closed its airspace to aircraft from the countries of the anti-Houthi coalition, which also includes the #UnitedStates, #Britain, #Australia, the #Netherlands and a number of other countries.

What is interesting is that Oman has long-standing military-political relations with Britain and the United States, but nevertheless did not support the operation, unlike Bahrain, which made its military bases and airfields available to the troops of the anti-Houthi coalition .

#Canada #Geemany
PS. Disgusting #Qatar, #Bahrain, #UAE and #SaudiArabia have all supporting the atrocities against #Yemen.

The joint statement of the United States, #Australia, #Bahrain, #Belgium, #Canada, #Denmark, #Germany, #Italy, #Japan, the #Netherlands, #NewZealand and the United Kingdom to Ansar Allah in #Yemen |

We demand an immediate end to these illegal attacks and the release of illegally seized ships and crews.

If the Houthis continue to threaten lives, the global economy, and the free flow of trade in the vital waterways of the region, they will be responsible for the consequences.

Yemen's response, which was communicated to the Westerners weeks ago: If you want to join the American-Israeli game, a ship will not pass through Bab al-Mandab.

PS. It's amazing that they get united to safeguard comers but don't give a rats ass about 1000s of dead and dying Palestinians. I truly want to vomit.
