Das sind natuerlich auch Boesewichter.
Trotzdem aendert das nichts an der Tatsache, dass die Saudis Angst vor der iranischen A-Bombe haben.
Und im Yemen sollen die Iraner auch rumzuendeln. Der saudische Aussenminister heute zum Yemen:

FOREIGN MINISTER AL-JUBEIR: Thank you for the question. With regards to contact with the Houthis, no, we haven’t had contact with the Houthis. They’re attacking us and attacking innocents in Yemen. We – the idea of a humanitarian pause was something that we have long discussed. We have been looking for ways to provide relief assistance to Yemen. We do so, as we speak, by dropping relief supplies from airplanes to various parts of Yemen, but it’s clearly not enough. We need to be able to bring in more substantial (inaudible). We considered a pause in certain areas of Yemen for certain periods of time, and we announced this two days ago. And then we reviewed it more closely and we realized that there are challenges with having certain pockets in Yemen which – where you have a pause and other pockets where you don’t have a pause, so it would complicate the delivery and the logistics of providing humanitarian assistance. So the decision was made that the pause would affect all of Yemen for a period of five days. It will be announced – the actual date will be announced shortly, God willing, and as well as the requirements.
Now this is all based on the Houthis complying with the ceasefire. There will be a ceasefire everywhere or a ceasefire nowhere, and we expect that – and hope that the Houthis will be – will care enough about the Yemeni people to allow the humanitarian assistance to flow into Yemen and to cease their aggressive activities. And so we’ll see if they will abide – if they will go along with something like this or not, because if they don’t then it’s very clear that they – that their only interest is to grab power in Yemen and that their interest is not the well-being of the Yemeni people. And so we’ll see about this.
With regards to the Iran – we have always maintained that Iran should have no role in Yemen. The last time I checked, Iran didn’t have a border with Yemen. And so the Iranian role in Yemen has been a negative one. They have supported the Houthis financially, ideologically, as well as with weapons, and this is not helpful. They have tried to smuggle weapons into Yemen in the midst of this conflict, and we have been able to stop aircraft from landing in Sana’a airport. And the United States has been able to turn back a flotilla of Iranian ships, which we suspect were loaded with weapons that were intended to go to the Houthis. So no, I do not think that Iran’s role in Yemen is a helpful one. I hope they can prevail on their allies, the Houthis, to abide by the ceasefire, but that’s my view on Iran and its role in Yemen.
