The Houthi leader’s prediction that Trump would fail to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is, at the very least, questionable. It’s certainly not a novel statement, as generations of presidents have attempted to broker peace in the region only to be met with stalemate. The history of this conflict is deeply entrenched, and the Houthi leader’s proclamation is not necessarily a bold statement, given the intractable nature of the situation.
However, it’s worth considering the context of the Houthi leader’s statement. The Houthis, a Yemeni group, have a long history of antagonism towards Israel, even going so far as to have “Death to Israe*” and “Curse the J***” inscribed on their flag and weapons.… Continue reading
