Saudi Arabia is planning to build a canal in Yemen to bypass the Strait of Hormuz, according to a report in Iran’s semi-official Fars News Agency on Wednesday.

According to Sa’ad Ibn Omar, head of the Arab Studies Center in Riyadh, “Studies are underway on the construction of a waterway which starts from a part of Saudi Arabia’s water border in the Khour al-Adid area between the UAE and Qatar and stretches 950 km to the Arabian Sea.”

that Saudi Arabia was planning to construct a water canal in Yemen, named Salman, to bypass the Strait of Hormuz.

Omar said the purpose of the waterway, to be named the Salman Canal (after the king), is to enable the UAE and Kuwait to bypass the Iran-controlled Strait of Hormuz when exporting their oil to other countries.

Omar added that the proposed canal, which is expected to cost $80 billion, would cut in half the current travel time it takes for ships to sail through the Strait of Hormuz.

Now we know why they're attacking Yemen, but this canal is basically the Saudi's assuming victory over the Houthis as a sure thing, far from it in reality.

Saud arab play ilegal gm!

It would take decades to build and the workforce would be a perfect target for guerilla warfare. Anyway I though most of the oil went East, not via Suez.

Saudi Arabia is seriously f-ed and they don't know what to do. Seems like they try to drag United States to commitment in order to cover their own mistakes.
I think their situation is so critical that, if they keep losing in all fronts, it may escalate even to a regime change.
Unlike others, I don't think Turkey is in serious trouble, but SA definitely is.

Yemenis fire ballistic missile at Riyadh ahead of Trump visit: Report
Yemen's Houthi Ansarullah fighters and their allies in the army have reportedly fired a long-range ballistic missile at the Saudi capital Riyadh, a few hours ahead of US President Donald Trump's visit to the Arab kingdom.
According to a report by Yemen's Arabic-language al-Masirah television network, the Yemeni forces, backed by allied fighters from Popular Committees, launched a Borkan-2 (Volcano-2) ballistic missile, a domestically modified rocket, aimed at the Saudi capital on Friday evening. The report also carried a statement by the Yemeni army, saying the missile strike conveyed "a clear and important message that we are all ready to respond to the aggression." The report, however, gave no further detail, including the exact impact location, the possible casualty toll and the extent of potential damage inflicted. Meanwhile, the Saudi military announced that it had intercepted and destroyed a projectile some 200 kilometers west of Riyadh, without giving more details.

Tillerson calls on Rouhani to stop Iran’s ballistic missile tests
US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has called on Iranian President Hassan Rouhani to end the country’s ballistic missile tests in what is Washington’s first reaction to his re-election. Tillerson made the remarks during a joint news conference with his Saudi counterpart on Saturday following Rouhani’s landslide election victory and winning a second term in office through presidential polls held on Friday.He repeated a Western accusation that Iran supports terrorism, saying, "What I would hope, is that Rouhani... use that (new) term to begin a process of dismantling Iran's network of terrorism, dismantling its financing of the terrorist network, dismantling the manning and the logistics and everything that they provide to these destabilizing forces that exist in this region."
"We also hope that he puts an end to their ballistic missile testing," Tillerson said on the first day of a visit by President Donald Trump to Saudi Arabia where he signed a whopping $110 billion weapons deal with the Saudi kingdom.

Saudi King Salman:Iran is the 'spearhead of global terrorism' and Parliament Larijani response

پادشاه عربستان سلمان: ایران رأس تروریسم جهانی است و پاسخ رئیس مجلس لاریجانی

رئیس مجلس: ریاض مرکز صدور تروریسم است
علی لاریجانی در نطق قبل از دستور جلسه علنی امروز مجلس افزود: اینکه رئیس جمهور آمریکا گفته چقدر پول از دولت سعودی گرفته و قبول کرده است تا در این اجلاس شرکت کند نکته جالبی است.
او افزود: آمریکایی ها ریاض را مرکز مبارزه با تروریسم اعلام کردند، کار درستی بود چون مرکز صدور تروریسم همان جاست.
رئیس مجلس شورای اسلامی گفت: اگر آمریکا موفق شود مانع ارسال پول و سلاح و افراد مسلح از عربستان به سایر نقاط شود دیگر نه برج دوقلو در نیویورک منفجر می شود و نه هزاران نفر از مردم بی گناه عراق، سوریه و لبنان کشته و زخمی می شوند.
لاریجانی در بخش دیگری از نطق خود از کمیسیون شوراهای مجلس خواست با همکاری مرکز پژوهش ها، شورای نگهبان و وزارت کشور طرح ساماندهی بهتر انتخابات را تهیه و ارائه کند.

Riyadh center of terrorism: Larijani
"That the US president has announced that he has taken money from Saudi government to partake in the [Islamic American] meeting is interesting”, the Iranian Parliament Spokesman Ali Larijani said in his pre-agenda speech.
He asserted "the Americans’ announcing Riyadh as a center for fighting terrorism was appropriate because the center of exporting terrorism is there”.
Larijani added that if the US succeeds to cut off the money, arms, and militants sent by Saudi Arabia to the world, then neither twin towers in New York will be exploded nor thousands of innocent people will be killed and injured in Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon.
The US and Saudi Arabia, along with a number of their regional allies, stand accused of providing weapons and financial backing to various militant groups wreaking havoc in countries like Syria and Iraq.

I put it here out of lack of a better thread.
Interesting what happened today with Qatar.
Are they about to drop the alliance of evil due to inconvenience? I haven't figure out just yet.

Qatar is in existential treat. Only Russia can save them. A shift of Qatar combined with Iran's and Russia's oil reserves would totally dominate the energy production of 21st century.

Here are some interesting news, it looks like there is a major clash between Saudi princes...
