Except for the things he leaves out, like the U.S.-led war against Iraq in 1991 was revealed in court to have been an act that had the effect of concealing that Sadaam Hussein's annexation of Kuwaiti territory was completely justified. Under international law, a country has the rights to its own natural resources and to enforce its own territorial integrity. And it was the direct result of acts performed under contract to Halliburton, Richard "Dick" Cheney's drilling company, and evidence was produced in that court that the U.S. knowingly did so specifically to shield Halliburton from financial consequences of its knowing illegal actions. Sadaam Hussein offered that evidence to *all of* his sovereign peers . . . many accepted that evidence, but few acted on it. "Big picture" background on an awful lot of modern history.

Superb job presenting this documentary, Chris. Bravo 👏

I want to clarify something really important about what you said at the part where you talk about US drone strike civilian casualty estimates from 15:30. You said according to the Bureau of Investigative Journalism, from 2002-2020 US drone strikes killed up to 1,750 civilians in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia. I couldn’t quite find the exact report you are referring to but the other TBIJ reports seem similar in findings to what you mentioned. The misleading part is where you mention the AirWars report that says up to 48,000+ civilians were killed. The AirWars report you referred to is titled “Tens of thousands of civilians likely killed by US in ‘Forever Wars’ “. The big problem is that this report doesn’t just refer to potential US drone strike civilian casualties in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia (like the TBIJ report) but in actual fact refers to all potential civilian casualties from US air to ground munitions from 2001-2020 in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. So not only does this report include more countries in the data set but also it doesn’t just include drone strikes but all air to ground strikes. Including for example, all potential civilian casualties from US air to ground munitions from the entire Iraq war and the entire air bombing campaign in Syria/Iraq while fighting against ISIS etc etc. This explains the drastic difference in estimates between the two resorts. One report is about drone strikes in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia and the other is about all air to ground munitions used by the US in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria and Yemen. The 48k figure is not from just drone strikes.

​@@Ghost_Hybridthat doesn't mean anything. LOAC is a domestic DoD thing, other countries have their respective rules of engagement, it's not like the revolutionary minutemen were following LOAC protocol. There are several events in this war so far that have been severe violations of international law and sovereignty far greater than the regard for DoD circumspection. I'm not saying the Houthis are anything other than terrorists but it's a significant stretch to say that the Iranians are solely the only perpetrators of human rights abuses in Yemen. The Iranians don't give them more weapons than the western coalition sells and donated to the Saudis, not even close. The Saudis have been having us play around in Yemen since 2002 not 2015 and it certainly hasn't made anything in the region more stable. The Iranians have also given humanitarian aid as well as weapons, do I think it's out of genuine goodwill? Of course not, but in a conflict like this it's more important to condemn the reality on the ground than it is to really pick a 'side' especially when neither of those sides are doing what's best for the Yemenese people.

Just learned what the Yemen Conflict is about. Thank you very much, Chris.

Another well researched piece and excellently presented.

Once again bravo for clarifying this issue

I was working at CENTCOM when the USS Cole was attacked. For quite some time prior to that event the nation of Yemen had been declared a terrorist haven, but the US State Department had softened its stance on the country. Even so, I was surprised when I read a message in 1998 or 1999 that stated US Navy vessels would begin making port calls for refueling. At the time I asked one of our Navy staff if he considered this a wise decision, given that nation's past record. He shook his head, shrugged, and pointed upstairs. Like all important matters, these decisions were made well above our pay grades by people who were looking at the "big picture". That picture did not seem to include a proper risk assessment, nor did it incorporate lessons learned from the 1983 bombing of the Marine barracks in Lebanon or the 1996 bombing of the USAF barracks in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, when the Cole arrived in port, her gun crews were held to absurdly strict rules of engagement which prevented any proactive defense of the ship. The rest is history. When I think of all the avoidable tragedies that occurred during my 30 years of service, the biggest takeaway has been how often complacency kills (and how few are ever held accountable for it).

I lived in Aden in the 1960's. At the time cruise ships would stop off and passengers would spend money in the city. I was 10 years old at the time so I knew nothing of politics. There was war even then. The RAF used to bomb "rebellious" villages after dropping leaftlets warning the people. The port was amazingly busy so the place was well off. When the British left, the place went to hell. The Russians moved in and the economy collapsed. The 1967 and 1973 wars with Israel caused great problems. So what has changed in 60 years? Not much.

As a citizen of Oman, I can guarantee you that nothing was smuggled through Oman to Yemen. Oman is an Ibadhi government which is not Sunni nor Shiiate and accordingly it will not gain anything by allowing anything smuggled through its land.

It’s interesting how there’s so much outrage about the blockade or Palestinians casualties from air strikes in Gaza, but there’s little to no outrage over the same thing in Yemen, when the Saudi’s or US does the same thing. It’s true all over the Middle East. Especially with fighting between Muslim countries or groups, many care very little about causing civilian casualties. No one seems upset or care about that, but immediately clamor for a ceasefire when Israel strikes back after a 9/11 scale terror attack. There’s clearly a different standard for much of the world when it comes to Israel.

Propaganda against Israel was running extra miles over the course of the last decade(s). And to be fair: there are many Israelian choices, that deserve to be criticized - to some degree. Especially judging from an outside perspecitve. Palestinians were portrayed as the poor underdog, purely innocent people, who are treated bad by Israel. And there are some legit facts to support this idea, like Israels ignoring UN decissions and their controversial colonization attempts. Israel also politically moving more and more to ultra conservative and ultra right positions doesn't help it's image and popularity. Many young Palestinians or other muslims sympathic for the Palestinian cause, live in western countries today and try to influence the local opinion. Many political left groups or environmentalists sided with the idea of the underdog. But they all ignored the deadly threat that is actually growing in Isreals neighbourhood, no matter what Israel does. And that some reasons for their poverty is actually caused by them throwing all financial resources at their efforts to fight Israel, instead of improving their living conditions. And it is still fascinating to me, to see left wingers trying to ignore pictures of local muslim people cheering to the footage of horrors that happened there or the footage itself. It is really hard to overlook this. And it is hard to justify monsters doing obvious horrible things by blaming Israel for it.

One of those _it is legal if the US and allies do it_ that causes people in other countries to support Russia in Ukraine out of principle when the US and allies ask countries to condemn Russia when the US does similar things. But not much was done and I guess people forgot. Same with the Syrian Civil War.

I have been wanting someone to tell this story in a manner that people can understand the complexities of the region as well as nobody hands are clean. So, the conspiracy side of me thinks the current Israel-Hamas conflict is rooted in the Saudi/Iranian power struggle. In March, Chinese broker the deal to for Yemen which put the CCP as the world diplomat. Saudis and the Iranians are now equal. Then the Iranians makes the deal with the US for the hostages in August which put them upfront with Arab world. Then the Saudi ups the ante with the Israel deal brokered by the US. Now the Saudis are at the top. Then Hamas who are Sunni but back by Shia Hezbollah who is backed by Iran attack Israel. No Saudi deal now and if the Yemen war improves any, the CCP will win the diplomacy cred it needs. Great job on video

The Chinese brokered reproachment between Iran and Saudi is a game changer for the Arab world.

You are not too far from the truth. Gaza’s Hamas being backed by Iran is all about Iran trying to gain more influence in the Arabian Peninsula. It is really less about the oil, as Cappy unreasonably pointed out in his pretty reasonable video. The US was oil independent just 1 President ago, and can be again with a little regulation loosening. During different periods of time, Iran/Persia controlled large swaths of the Middle East. Iran already indirectly controls the Iraqi holy cities of Najaf and Karbala after the second gulf war. Eventually taking control over Jerusalem (The Temple Mound / Al-Aqsa Mosque / The Dome of the Rock), Medina, and Mecca would place Shia Islam on the top of the world pecking order. With Iranian Houthi dominated Yemen (holding the 2nd largest Army in the Arabian Peninsula) to the South [fighting Saudi Arabia & declaring war on Israel], Iranian supported Palestinians in Gaza starting the latest war with Israel, Iranian controlled Hezbollah firing from the North in Israel… the Holy Cities all lie in a small stretch in between Iranian backed forces. Once controlled is gained by Iran, they announce they are a nuclear power, and it is checkmate. This has the potential to be a nightmare, after Russia set the stage for Persia/Iran by destroying a lot of food exports from Ukraine to the Arab regions. The US is really a minor blip in this ethnic turning religious conflict, dating back thousands of years…

@@mbaxter22To be honest, China will use this as their advantage but knowing them, China will backstab them later. Trust me, i know this because my country deal with China for thousands years ago even considered them to be our arch nemesis.

You forgot to mention Putin the dark horse in the race that has come out with harder line for Nato and Israel. His Syria conquest and then the Ukraine war that was started by IMF because Israel was angry for ruined Greater Israel project. Putin with Iran and China has more leverage that Saudi Arabia is joining leaving USA and Israel alliance. Yemen is another proxy war before Nato go full scale attack on Iran.

How Yemen can afford missiles and a large military?
