COUP IN SAUDI ARABIA
Hopefully, they kill the pig fucker.
There have been reports of gunfire, explosions near the palace, apparently, the king has been evacuated to the airbase near the capital.

What? Where?
It will end up a nothingburger, just like the failed Turkish coup.
In the capital:

This is a political comedian, he's posting video's of the gunfire and live updates from the city.
turning on CNN right now
...
Long time coming
Supposedly just "a toy drone coming to close to the palace". Have to wait for more info.

I know someone who's i nsaudi arabia and she said he friend was shot in the crossfire.
THIS REALLY MAKIN ME DO A HARD THONK!!!!!!!
Jesus Christ….. Why didn't they diversify their economy or at least find a way to convince those workers to become naturalized citizens who would then impart their knowledge onto their kids?
That was the first thin that came to mind.
Big if true.
Does this mean the Houthis are gonna sweep Yemen?
if the military takes over, they'll continnue the war in Yemen
if some otehr king/pince/unicorn faggot is put in power, he'll continnue the war in Yemen
so no
Most of the native population is fucked. They're almost all in comfy 'government jobs' while the productive labour of the country is done by a immigrant slave labour force.
Moreover just a few months ago the Saudi gov implemented austerity/welfare cuts as well as removing the massive subsidies on petrol.
Yemenis are arabs
Keep reading. The problem are officers, not soldiers.
What about the other Gulf States? I can imagine Qatar having a fuckhuge wall between it and the fighting, but how could they play this to their profit?
Sounds like multiple drones to me
Qatar is another slave state, it'll get swept up. You should be more worried for the Shi'a minority in KSA, because they live on top of the oil.
Any two of those bullets land in the king and heir apparent, and it's war.
this is a fucking hottake
The downside of getting a perspective from Americans is… they're Americans.
Um what the fuck?
I'm fairly certain the help from British private militaries recruited from the SAS had more to do with Egyptian failure in Yemen than their officer culture.
faggot
ahahahaha came here to make a thread about this.
Jesus fucking christ.
Also fails to mention massive aid the Israelis received from the US in intelligence services regarding Arab movements
Israel hasn't beaten an Arab force since the 80s
You have brightened my day, lifted my spirits and truly filled me with hope. Thank you, seriously thank you for this contribution to this thread. I am truly appreciative of it.

I hope your children, if you plan or do have any, grow up to be great accomplishments, I hope you are able to live an old, peaceufl life where your wishes come true and you die, an old, happy and content man. I truly wish the best for you.

At this point the American bourgeoisie could write that the moon is white and I would be forced to conclude that its purple t. American
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧coup🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧 happened a long time ago
it's fucking nothing
lmao
we seriously don't know enough to draw conclusions. Witnesses claim they heard multiple shots and explisions
the government (who, need I remind you, doesn't really want this to escalate for obviou reasons, and would rather conceal the whole thing) claims it was a " toy drone" A fucking toy drone flew into a high security royal palace? It's questionable, to say the least.
FUCKING WWE COUP
WRESTLING GANG GANG GANG GANG GANG
It's either civil war or going to war with Iran to keep propping up the economy's dependence on state-run jobs. A war with Iran means a global geopolitical catastrophe aka WW3. Saudi Arabia imploding would probably be the best thing for the world.
Can I get a source on what that comic is?
I can't find a link so I'm just gonna post the whole thing
it's action philosophers
Turned it into a PDF if anyone is interested
Saudi Arabia imploding also means WW3, because US derives its power from petrodollar, which relies on KSA being stable and US aligned.
Huzzah, another opportunity for imperialism
Got an audible heh out of me.
