    The houthis are extremists, violent, and anti-democratic. Its a deep shame the US, Saudi Arabia and Israel give Houthis reason to court Iran, and their failed war against Iran did not help.

    However, checking the news i see the majority of Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia hit infrastructure while Saudi Arabia regularly hits populated centres.

    This is not a strategy that will help Saudi Arabia in the long term.

        Interestingly Yemenis largely practice Zaydism which is something of a mix between the two.

          But Saudis and Iranians are the respective leaders of their group IIRC so I’m not surprised they fund organisations that harm the other side.
