Saudi Arabia 'Inspects' Yemen Flights - Who Controls the Hand That Feeds?
While The New Arab frames this as an internal spat between Saudi Arabia and the UAE, let's not forget the larger picture: Saudi Arabia's genocidal war on Yemen, backed by the US, has left millions facing starvation, with the de facto blockade on air and sea travel a major contributing factor. Now, the main aggressor (Saudi Arabia) gets to 'inspect' aid and travel flights into a country they've
systematically destroyed for a decade, with US precision-guided munitions. This isn't about 'regional tensions'; it's about control. Riyadh, with Washington’s green light and weapons, dictates what goes in and out of a nation it has deliberately fractured and starved since 2014. The media presents it as regulatory oversight. We call it enforced dependency, a continuation of aerial warfare by other
means.
