Unfortunately, everything you listed... it all still remains... none of it has truly been destroyed.

The most brutal aspect of guerrilla warfare is that you can never completely destroy it through military means.

@Watandar is a layman in military matters.. BTW remember that guy me and you were debating couple of years ago who was adament that missiles can destroy an entire country and end a war lmao. many of these elements are online here who always go with sensationalized headlines like one airstrike dropped here ends into a total victory type of idiots or these who claim an entire civilization has ended from an airstrike that probably only killed 2-3 ppl sometimes is over sensationalized. Modern conventional conflicts are all prolonged meat grinders... Which is why nobody wants to fight them unless they have absolutely no choice.

From a military doctrine victory is all always measured in total victory.

Let me give you examples of what is a successful total military victory in the old world and in modern days.

Wars have been fought for thousands of wars by the way and victory has always meant the same thing in each language or culture.

In the old world meaning WW1 AND WW2.. soviet conquest of several east European countries including east Germany it was a military conquest victory that nobody can contest.

Or the allies victory over Gernany in west Germany..

In modern era...........

Vietnam victory over democratic elements and the US - 20 years

Afghanistan victory over Soviets and communists elements - 10 years

Afghanistan victory over Democratic and US elements -20 years

Syrian rebels victory over Russia, Hezbollah, Assad Regime and iran-Iraqi ragtag elements - 15 years

Sri Lanka victory over Tamil tigers after decades long war - 26 years

Azerbaijan victory over Armenia in the Karabakh wars and taken over the nagorno Karabakh territory fully. 5 years but was standstill for much longer.

Russia´s recent Georgia invasions which were successful - No bullet fired as Georgia surrendered

-------------------------

Pending wars

Ukraine-Russo war.. - 5 years

Myanmmar war - 5 years

Yemen war - 12 years

I don´t think this is true by the way but if the Syrians even deploys 20.000 it is over for the houthis as the Syrian gov´t forces have integrated Turkish technology and are still doing it at high pace. Some of the tactics they used to storm Assad are now being used in The Ukraine-Russo war. Majority of their tactics are being used today

This will be nothing but more Salafi Orc ashes to throw in the ocean

 

[tsunset]

Saudi Arabia will probably call for Jihad and recruit Chechen headchopping Orcs to send in Yemen

Saudi Arabia has proven they can't defend themselves alone and that their army is comprised of foreigners exclusively, including their airforce

This will be nothing but more Salafi Orc ashes to throw in the ocean

But these Salafi orcs eff´´ed you up really good despite having Russia with you.. They did you in..

The Salafis are like 1% of the muslim population yet again they control everything today in the muslim world from Economic sector, dawah sector, knowledge sector, lobbying, politics and the military. Nobody can outwork the salafis.

I swear to god bro 1 SALAFI is worth 100.000 shrine goers when it comes comptence.

This is why Saudi Arabia isn't able to defend itself even when calling miscreant foreigners that spits on Islam from Greece and Germany and PLC getting steamrolled by people in socks and sandals

Defend itself from whom actully? From a few rockets thrown once in a while beside the Houthis will not be able to even launch anymore very soon.

If these people with the socks and sandals had anything in them they would have won long time ago but they won´t.. They will learn a lesson in this war and this will clip their wings for the next centuries

Name us one terror attack against innocents done by Iran or its allies across the globe since the past 20 years

So the 650k deaths are all because of Iran and absolutely not ISIS who were only the poor victims?

Saudi Arabia is the forefather of Salafism and the one who spread it across the world like rabbits reproducing, therefore they are totally responsible for all the deaths linked to Salafism, the roots are always connected to the upper body of the tree and if you remove the roots, the tree dies

But us real Muslims, not Salafi extremists, believe in pardon and repentance and it's not too late for Saudi Arabia to repent and admit their errors and fix them together

You gotta be shitting me, lol. Even if you were blind, deaf and dumb you couldn't make that statement without lying through your teeth. But I know, all those crimes and atrocities committed by the IRGC, their butcher Assad, and their proxies for all those years, they don't really count, they were all righteous crimes against terrorists, they totally weren't fighting the majority of the population there that's been oppressed for decades, all across the entire country in a mass uprising against a brutal tyrant. It was just a handful of terrorists here and there, really, Assad and his partners in crime were all angels, they totally didn't deliberately and consistently target and terrorize ordinary civilians and brutalize them, and indiscriminately bombed and murdered them all those years. It's all just fairy tales. Un fucking believable.

And you want to talk about ISIS? Look at your regime and you'll see their spitting image, they are no different, they have the same terrorist extremist mindset and behaviour with their own slanted and perverted interpretation of Islam just like ISIS did. And just like them, they are just another takfiri fanatic cult that only views people with the same belief and ideology as being 'real' Muslims, the rest of us don't make the cut apparently. Makes slaughtering innocent people en masse and destroying their country that much more justifiable and excusable.

They are both extremists and have no problem murdering anyone that doesn't bow down to them and their sick twisted ideologies. Both need to be wiped.

Now i want jew vs salafi comparison

There is no comparison the jews are just an outpost and beneficial to the christian world and won´t be as soon as they lose their outpost ship. they have been homeless for 2000 years and under class citizens. If you did not have competence for these 2000 years why would I believe you have competence today you are just a puppet and outpost nothing more really.

But The Salafis have been influential for 1500 years and they are behind literally the expansion era and spread of Islam they control entire ecoonomies or half fo the worlds economy.

Plus this 1% they have monoploy on this dunya and in Akhira... They do not commit shirk or associate partners with Allah. Plus they do not include any form of Bid´ah in their worship nor do they believe in superstitions or Oman´s.. They believe in destiny and predestination.

This ppl are the people of Paradise whether you like them or not

Wahhabism has roots in Judaism. both Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab (the founder of Wahhabism) and Muhammad ibn Saud (the founder of the Saudi dynasty) were of Jewish descent. their ancestors belonged to the Dönmeh group of followers of the 17th-century Jewish false messiah Sabbatai Zevi who publicly converted to Islam but secretly retained their beliefs

I don´t know about this jewish angle and I am not talking about Abd-Al Wahhab. but the Salaf.

Do you know what Salaf means? It means the ancient ones and it is a term for the 3 first generations of Islam. So when someone says we follow the Salaf it means the 3 first generations. They do no follow any Madhab but just the 3 first generations and copy their style of Islam which was the purest form.

Generation	Arabic Name	Description	Notable Examples
1st Generation	Sahabah (The Companions)	Those who knew or saw and lived alongside the Prophet Muhammad and died as Muslims.	Abu Bakr, Umar ibn al-Khattab, Uthman ibn Affan, Ali ibn Abi Talib, Abdullah ibn Mas'ud
2nd Generation	Tabi'un (The Successors / Followers)	Those who met at least one of the Sahabah (Companions) but not the Prophet Muhammad.	Hasan al-Basri, Abu Hanifa, Malik ibn Anas (early period), Sa'id ibn al-Musayyib
3rd Generation	Tabi' al-Tabi'in (Successors of the Successors)	Those who met or learned from the Tabi'un.	Imam al-Shafi'i, Imam Ahmad ibn Hanbal

The most brutal aspect of guerrilla warfare is that you can never completely destroy it through military means.

Mao Zedong, a great man of the PRC, published his famous military treatise "On Protracted War" in 1938, during the most difficult period of the Chinese revolution. At its core, the work addresses how a small revolutionary group could contend with a powerful state-level force.

My post was silently deleted by those who want to push a particular narrative.

Let's see if this post stays up! News of the Saudi-backed forces war crimes has now reached international media.

Yemeni government fighters shown driving vehicles over Houthi opponents​

By Edward Carron
October 6, 20262:02 PM EDTUpdated October 6, 2026

Summary

• Houthis call video evidence of war crimes
• Sudden government advance this week aided by Saudi air power
• Bab el-Mandeb crucial for global energy supplies

Oct 6 (Reuters) - Video posted by government forces in Yemen showed them driving armoured cars over Houthi fighters as they recaptured areas around the vital Bab el-Mandeb Strait from the Iran-backed group on Monday in a deadly new phase of the fragmented country's war.

The videos gave a glimpse into the brutal closing stages of a pitched battle for control of territory near the strait that the Houthis had ‌captured last month. The Houthi advance sent shockwaves through the oil market and pushed up petrol and diesel prices worldwide.


Fighting continued near Bab el-Mandeb on Tuesday as Saudi-backed government forces battled to consolidate Monday's counter-attack, besieging Houthi fighters at a military camp near the strait and pushing into hills to the east, Yemeni military sources said.

The videos, verified by Reuters and filmed from inside the armoured vehicles, showed them striking fighters with their vehicles. Some were armed and some were walking or running. However, others were unarmed and some were sitting, lying or crouching on the sandy shore and made no move to evade the oncoming vehicle as they were run over.

At one point, a vehicle hits a man, running and unarmed, and another crouching on the ground. It then loops back to ⁠drive over two men, both with their hands up and unarmed. Shooting can be heard during the video and at one point the vehicle's windscreen is cracked by a gunshot.

A Houthi statement decried the videos as proof of war crimes, saying they showed "the true nature of the Saudi regime and the forces it has mobilised from extremist factions".
Asil al-Saqladi, spokesperson for the Giants Brigade — the main Yemeni government force involved in the fighting at Bab el-Mandeb this week — said the force was conducting an investigation into the incident.

He added that the brigade had been misled into believing that the Houthi fighters there were surrendering but that some of them had then fired on the government force.
The Saudi-led coalition backing the government forces in Yemen did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the videos or the Houthi accusations of war crimes.
The Homeland Shield Forces, a significant formation in the Yemeni government's military coalition, did not comment directly on the videos but issued a directive on Tuesday urging troops to treat prisoners well and adhere to religious, ethical and legal standards.

Rights groups have previously accused the Houthis of war crimes, including sniper and shelling attacks on civilian targets, seizures of aid, abuse of prisoners and use of child soldiers. The group has ‌denied war ⁠crimes.

'TURNING POINT'​

Reuters has not been able to independently verify the extent of government gains and the Houthis denied they had lost ground, saying the government claims of advances were baseless.

Intense fighting meanwhile continued around Yemen's third-largest city of Taiz, where Houthi gains in a mountain district have in recent days cut off a main road to Aden, leaving government forces encircled.

Yemen's civil war pits the Houthis against an uneasy coalition of sometimes rival military forces under the internationally recognised government, backed by Saudi Arabia and its allies.

The renewed clashes have added a new front to the Iran-US conflict, with the US rebuffing Saudi requests for military help to reverse Houthi gains on the Red Sea coast near Bab el-Mandeb last month ⁠and end the group's missile and drone attacks on their territory.

"The operation itself is significant because it's a turning point in the trajectory of the conflict between the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition," said Ahmed Nagi, Yemen analyst at International Crisis Group.

"The biggest test will be when they move towards the mountains," he added.

RELIGIOUS AND REGIONAL FAULTLINES​

The Giants Brigade is a southern military formation originally formed by students at ultra-conservative Sunni Muslim religious colleges.

That background gives both a ⁠religious and regional edge to their enmity with the Houthis, who originate in north Yemen and belong to the Zaydi school of Shi'ite Islam.
The Giants have themselves fractured this year, splitting between factions backed by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, illustrating the internal divisions that have long beset the Yemeni government's efforts to fight the Houthis.

As well as further squeezing global trade routes after Iran's disruption of shipping in ⁠the Strait of Hormuz, the conflagration in Yemen has brought the conflict more directly to Saudi Arabia, a US ally.

The Houthis have repeatedly targeted Saudi infrastructure, including airports, oil refineries and pipelines. Residents of the Saudi capital Riyadh reported hearing booms overnight and two of the kingdom's southern airports were targeted.
Saudi Arabia's intervention in the latest wave of fighting included intense air strikes on Houthi forces on Monday as the Giants Brigade advanced along the flat coastal strip towards Bab el-Mandeb.
