The Houthis are taking significiant loss of men. Sooner or later Insha-allah they will give in.. Something will eventually give.

This meatgrinder has gone on for 12 years and it is high time that something has to give it has reached a mature year. This is a fruit that has matured. With all fronts opening soon upon the houthis there is nothing but death here for them

How long did the war In Vietnam last? And how many casualties did the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong take?

And the Viet Minh before that?

Same cheerleaders who claimed Myanmar bamar ethnic central government would fall quickly after displacing rohingya. If wishing for someone's defeat and achieving it was only that easy..

It lasted 20 years and the casuality was around 850k which is realistic. Hahah not the amount of number the US releases to not invoke public anger but aside from the jokes. The houthi casuality since the beginning of the war is around 300k at this point. Something gotta give eventually if the pressure is kept on them.

We have seen how things have gone in Afghanistan and Syria something eventually gave with presistent pressure. I believe the Houthis will hold for awhile before any frontline collapses. These wars lasted longer then 12 years each. One last 15 and the other 20 years hence who knows it may last couple more years eventually something will give.

You keep coming with the worst example ever it is like apples and oranges. Whoever said that about Rohinga is crazy. You do realize that the Rohinga are literally like thousands like around 12-20k it is like arresting 100s of people outside of an stadium in New york and then later claim they gonna overthrow a country. It is not feasible! Myanmar is 100m+ and Rohinhga are such a very very tiny minority like a spit in the ocean.

But aside from that Myamnar is basically destroyed country from the inside out all that subject is moot now

You must have forgotten, People here were cheerleading that the karen militia, kachins, shan states etc were marching to the capital yet they never could.

Taking some positions in your own ethnic homeground is one thing, marching into enemy bamar territory is something else completely

I may have misunderstood your question. You are suggesting that some people claimed the Myanmmar gov´t will fall in this civil war correct?

Yes there was an uprising around 3 yrs ago and a lot of fighting, many army posts were over run. But being over run in hostile territory is one thing but losing land in ethnic majority bamar territory is another.

Anyways i am just saying that things rarely if ever work in these conflicts. which is why assads quick fall to HTS or how quickly ISIS captured mosul are special situations that are normally not replicated.

Assad fought for 15 years he is excused. So is the ANA they fought for 20 years in Afghanistan. This Myanmmar war is only 5 years old now which means it is relatively young for modern warfare average length is 15-20 years. The same goes to the Ukraine it is relatively young. We have to give it few more years so the war can reach senior wars before we can know who is gonna win. Modern warfares are marathon not a sprint. Heck Israel and Hamas were fighting 2 straight years in a small enclave area smaller then one district in New york.

Ukraine war is 4 years old, Myannmar 5 years old. Yemen war is still not mature and has ways to go at just 12 years old.

The air strikes are painful, drain the Houthis and destroy their capabilities, but the decision in the end is made by the forces on the ground

The hardcore elements in the leadership must be cleansed as sustained bombing establishes deterrence.

Be careful he predicted a few wars that anyone with high school education could have seen coming…….raise your hand if your one of those guys with that high school diploma

Airstrikes can disrupt ground formation but it will not decide anything but conventional ground forces will do the trick. You gotta take it from the houthis on the ground and liberate yemen from them streets to streets and valley to valley and mountain top to mountain top.


Airstrikes and missiles etc etc does very minimal damage very little in truth and not enough to change a conventional battlefield or move lines

You are probably one of these elements who believed few years ago that missiles could win wars.. lmao.. That guy with the pikachu profile pic. You were probably in that boat

Turkish vehicles have arrived in Yemen... Turkish media: A number of Turkish armored vehicles and tanks have been delivered to the Yemeni army.

(Kirpi, Vuran, and Otokar Cobra)

These are standard armored vehicles exported by Turkey – this will be a major development, as they are mine-resistant and have been tested in Syria and Libya.

As we have said before and reiterated, Yemen is the first testing ground for the Mecca Alliance.

Turks are playing with fire

Appreciate if you can add some " minor" differences ...
North Vietnamese had the full backing of the super power of the era called Soviet Union and China.... who's is backing houthis ? Crippled Iran or some other hidden force?

Nope because I always thought without a proper Air Force and a revamp of military overall they would be in trouble but yes I believed they could inflict a lot of damage with their missiles which facts have proven they could do so Iran may not be winning the war but they’re not losing and they gave sowed a lot of damage against American Arab and Israel let’s be honest wars not fair but at last count it was like 20 to 1 at the height of this war people playing ideas and defense for America and Israel give Iran a hand for yes literally laying waster to many American bases Americas own commander has basically said Bahrain fifth fleet command is a loss
