Exactly! He quickly glosses over the reason why they are attacking. Whick is to stop the atrocities and war crimes commited by israel on a daily basis. Instead he makes it sound like they are just a pawn of Iran and they simply do it because they were told to do so. To put this in context: The US would go to war against the poorest country in the middle east thqn stop israels war crimes and ethnic cleansing. Or thar trade is MUCH more important than human life for the US. The US assembled this naval force in a matter of days, but won't do anything for the civilian people in Gaza or Sudan

The Quran also mentions that israel is the land of the Jews, what’s your point?
The "Operation Prosperity Guardian" is NOT going to work against Houthis in the Red Sea as it didn't work against the Taliban in Afghanistan. If the Houthis fire a "barrage of missiles" and "Kamikaze drones" toward the Commercial Cargo ships and Navy ships/destroyers like Hamas did in Gaza toward Israeli cities and towns, the Navy ships won't be able to eliminate the Threats in the Air, and they will easily be targeted and hit. Houthis, Hamas, and Hezobollah's strategies are to "overwhelm and paralyze" the Air Defence Systems with the "simultaneous firing of hundreds of missiles /drones" towards the cargo and navy ships. The outcome will be "catastrophic" for Coalition Forces. Saudis know they will be in "losing battles" with Houthis again and they are trying to avoid another humiliating defeat against Houthis.

Al Quran Roman English translation from MUHAMMAD marmaduke pictall.(before grave and in grave and after grave2) 37:53 Can we, when we are dead and have become mere dust and bones - can we (then) verily be brought to book? 37:54 He saith: Will ye look? 37:55 Then looketh he and seeth him in the depth of hell. 37:56 He saith: By Allah, thou verily didst all but cause my ruin, 37:57 And had it not been for the favour of my Lord, I too had been of those haled forth (to doom). 37:58 Are we then not to die 37:59 Saving our former death, and are we not to be punished? 37:60 Lo! this is the supreme triumph. 83:31 And when they returned to their own folk, they returned jesting; 83:32 And when they saw them they said: Lo! these have gone astray. 83:33 Yet they were not sent as guardians over them. 83:34 This day it is those who believe who have the laugh of disbelievers, 83:35 On high couches, gazing. 83:36 Are not the disbelievers paid for what they used to do? 52:11 Then woe that day unto the deniers 52:12 Who play in talk of grave matters; 52:13 The day when they are thrust with a (disdainful) thrust, into the fire of hell 52:14 (And it is said unto them): This is the Fire which ye were wont to deny. 52:15 Is this magic, or do ye not see? 57:12 On the day when thou (Muhammad) wilt see the believers, men and women, their light shining forth before them and on their right hands, (and wilt hear it said unto them): Glad news for you this day: Gardens underneath which rivers flow, wherein ye are immortal. That is the supreme triumph. 57:13 On the day when the hypocritical men and the hypocritical women will say unto those who believe: Look on us that we may borrow from your light! it will be said: Go back and seek for light! Then there will separate them a wall wherein is a gate, the inner side whereof containeth mercy, while the outer side thereof is toward the doom. 57:14 They will cry unto them (saying): Were we not with you? They will say: Yea, verily; but ye tempted one another, and hesitated, and doubted, and vain desires beguiled you till the ordinance of Allah came to pass; and the deceiver deceived you concerning Allah; 7:44 And the dwellers of the Garden cry unto the dwellers of the Fire: We have found that which our Lord promised us (to be) the Truth. Have ye (too) found that which your Lord promised the Truth? They say: Yea, verily. And a crier in between them crieth: The curse of Allah is on evil-doers, 7:45 Who debar (men) from the path of Allah and would have it crooked, and who are disbelievers in the Last Day. 7:46 Between them is a veil. And on the Heights are men who know them all by their marks. And they call unto the dwellers of the Garden: Peace be unto you! They enter it not although they hope (to enter). 7:47 And when their eyes are turned toward the dwellers of the Fire, they say: Our Lord! Place us not with the wrong-doing folk. 13:23 Gardens of Eden which they enter, along with all who do right of their fathers and their helpmeets and their seed. The angels enter unto them from every gate, 13:24 (Saying): Peace be unto you because ye persevered. Ah, passing sweet will be the sequel of the (heavenly) Home. 13:25 And those who break the covenant of Allah after ratifying it, and sever that which Allah hath commanded should be joined, and make mischief in the earth: theirs is the curse and theirs the ill abode. 39:71 And those who disbelieve are driven unto hell in troops till, when they reach it and the gates thereof are opened, and the warders thereof say unto them: Came there not unto you messengers of your own, reciting unto you the revelations of your Lord and warning you of the meeting of this your Day? they say: Yea, verily. But the word of doom of disbelievers is fulfilled. 39:72 It is said (unto them): Enter ye the gates of hell to dwell therein. Thus hapless is the journey's end of the scorners. 39:73 And those who keep their duty to their Lord are driven unto the Garden in troops till, when they reach it, and the gates thereof are opened, and the warders thereof say unto them: Peace be unto you! Ye are good, so enter ye (the Garden of delight), to dwell therein; =++===++==
