"The Yemeni Maneuver" - Biden Administration Gives a Free Pass to Iran
(Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs) Lt.-Col. (ret.) Michael Segall - On February 16, 2021, the Biden administration removed the Houthi rebels in Yemen from the U.S. list of terrorist organizations. Barely mentioned was Iran's involvement and direct responsibility for continuing the conflict in Yemen and its longstanding support for the Houthi rebels. Iran has transferred a variety of weapons to the Houthis, as well as manufacturing know-how and instructors. These include GPS-guided armed drones, remote controlled Water-borne Improvised Explosive Devices (RC-WBIED), cruise missiles, ballistic missiles, and rockets, which it has fired at Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
