Professor Kendall always provides much needed historical and cultural texture to any Middle East debate.
Prof. Elizabeth Kendall knows the Middle East. She knows our culture; a well-balanced narrative. Needs to be heard.
Why didn't she talk about the houthis trusting their ex-president, the one that stole around 30 bi. This ex, stabed them on the back with the help of the saudis. Also, Why she doesn't talk about the houthis attacking only ships from Israel and after the american intervened to protect israel (the same mistake one more time), the houthis started attacking the ships from the US and UK. She could talk about ending the genocide in Gaza . She is just one more white supremacist.
Nelson Mandela was once on the terrorist 'list'. Proves that one man's terrorist is another's freedom fighter
The genocide needs to stop by any means necessary. 2 navy seals lost their lives as a result of this madness. How much more American blood do we need to lose for Israel? They can settle their own disputes without our involvement
America is completely controlled by Israel and the Israeli lobby therefore no one in America has the ability to leave Israel alone
Agree !!!
No, they really can't solve their own disputes any more than African, South American, or Central American countries can solve their problems. It spills over. Violence always spills over.
Agreed,the tail is wagging the dog.
Israel is a crucial middle east ally to the United States. Our fates are, to a degree, intertwined. But part of the real problem I think you're referring to, if I understand it correctly, is that the US gives Israel a sort of credit to purchase weapons for self-defense. They spend this credit at American weapons companies, who make a killing on it! *And then share some of these spoils to political campaigns...* and the cycle goes around again, and everyone gets the money they want.
Can't blame a single living thing for defending its home, only those going out of their way to harass others.
At last, a knowledgeable discussion on the history, issues and problems with the West's current approach to the issue.
Excellent segment. Fantastic guest. Learned so much
Excellent discussion by someone who clearly understands a conflict no one else has a clue about. Not that having no clue should hinder the impulse to drop bombs on everything. Look how well that's always worked out for America and Britain.
In south Africa we had the benefit of having sober minded leaders like Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu, who rejected the proposal amongst the hot headed to plunge the country into a civil war. It could have decimated all of us
S African charges brought forth via the ICJ are welcomed.
We had a great leader here in the USA, but the election was rigged in 2020 and we now have Biden.
I’ve shared this clip great insightful discussion. Thank you Dr. I learned a lot and understand the context far better now.
A valuable explanation of the conflict.
Thank you. Very informative
Very informative! Thank you!
Good interview!
‘Mistress’ is Girton’s unique title for the role referred to by other Colleges as Master, President, Provost, Warden or Principal.
Houthis sent missiles very early on in Israel too early to know how popular they would become, so this would not have been a motive for their actions. It may just be they are tired of U.S. and Israel exploiting and killing of their people and allies in the region.
After Israel's brutal killings in Gaza, the whole world should have stopped it. But Great Britain, America, Western Europe, did not stop the genocide but hindered it. It was the duty of all member states under the UN Charter. The Yemenite Hotties fulfilled that duty. Without harming a single human life, ❤they forced the world to look at the issues of Gaza and Israel in a different way.
Ignoring the fact that the Houthis are not targeting international shipping but Israeli shipping?
Let the Houthis say what they are. People can speak for themselves
Saudi Arabia had to accept a truce with the Houthis even after 8 years of war with US supplying weapons to them because the Houthis were bombing Saudi oil wells and processing facilities which turned out to be very vulnerable. The UAE and their oil infrastructure are well within the range of Houthis missiles.
Horton hears a Houthi talking to a Wherethi and a Whythi about Whenthi will get together
Why wasn’t Nixon prosecuted for his crimes? Did Ford’s pardon a way of saying the President is immune from prosecution? Please explain that!

What’s west world nasties role in Arab nation ?
I will never believe any foreign affairs analysis given with that accent. It's that accent that created this powder keg after WW2.
the crimes on this planet are intentional and unexecusable, i am never incharge but try tomake the most of things even when ihave nothing
PRESENT
16:54 is it possible to just take the square miles of the Middle East, divide by the population and recreate the area like a wedding seating chart?
Anyone else find Walter’s pronunciation of Houthis distracting?
my plan on a moon outside our galaxy was misculated considered wreckless vehicular unintentional damage, but i just wanted to be able to say i do not even have to follow galactic law funny thing, no plan on comin back, kinda going as far as way as possible
They are very hardened fighters.
You need to provide details on the Houthis preparing in advance to operate in the Red Sea. It sounds like you wanted to suggest this was the case and hoped your listeners would believe you.
Houthis have been at war for twenty years and Saudi's kept a naval blockade and effective siege for 8 years, so they are in a perpetual state of preparedness from sea and land.
@@helenhenthorn4948 thanks for your reply. I could be wrong but I think it sounded as if they prepared for this specific operation before October 7.
@@sheilamarler2439 Sheila, that is what they suggested, but based solely on weapons buildup which is weak hypothesis as with the end of their war and the amount of shoreline they're going to re-equip and accrue an array of anti-ship missiles. The leader of Iran and Hezbollah said they weren't pre-warned of the attack by Hamas, and I don't know why they would need to. In Sept. 2023 the Houthis paraded lots of their missile and drone capability. This link to a military and weapons analyst describes/shows what Houthis displayed and US response in an interesting and non-gun-ho way. ruclips.net/video/ngfa69VSGyw/видео.html
It is very well presented discussion/analised but one point left and that is the Hothey are the one who will lead to the establishment of Palestine
PURE SKILL
I would say this doctor did her homework not like Biden Adminstration
It's so refreshing to get real information about the situation. Typically the news is incomplete in helping us understand what a mess we are in!
ALOT of physical pain, endless psychological pain... led to suicide
literally
She is knowledgeable
Sure, especially for those who don't read books and do their own research.

You forgot to post your message a third time. Do it again Milkshake.
If Iran has “proxies”, then the U.S. has many more proxies! If the U.S. has “allies”, why not the same for Iran? Certainly seems that America’s allies are not completely free, therefore, proxies is more reasonable!
GOSH, maybe Trump took the
Houthies off the terrorist list,
For the Saudis, and then Jared
Makes 2 Billion.
WHY did Trump
Do this a few days before he
left office is sketchy ?!?!
A LOVELY INTERVIEW with
Dr. KENDALL.
He put them on the list.
o i qualified for 5 stars
they did not want a youngun incharge i did not even want part but under oath i had to prevent a terrorist from a position of power
i earned one star in my dream. with the gods watching. i guess i was the only one on the planet that was legit
The Houthi’s are over 800 years old… older than Iran….What is she talking about????
Older than Shi'a Safavid Iran, which is about 500 yrs old. Iran was majority Sunni before the 16th-century.
May be cnn should get a map to teach USA citizens geography, at least they get education, since they are not getting investigative journalism!
Ask British..they old friend...
Finally, there will be independent Palestine state.
people are not honest
Don’t the Saudi’s have a standing army that can invade Yemen and subdue the Houthis? Air strikes along have never decided the outcome of a war.
The US has been complicit in the humanitarian crisis in Yemen since 2015.
The US complicity in the humanitarian crisis in Yemen started in 2015.
Why would they want to do that? The Houthis aren’t doing anything to the Saudi’s. They don’t want to involve themselves in this. In fact the fake “government” the US/Saudi tried to install in Yemen now live in exile in Saudi Arabia because the Yemen ppl didn’t want them.
Yemen is such a poor country and what the US and UK doing is terrible.
I am tired of all the pro-west and pro-israel.
Could the Palestinians move to Yemen since the Houthis love them so much when Israel kicks them out of Palestine proper? This is a joke, BTW, but the Palestinians are facing a horrid reconstruction of Gaza which could take decades if Israel even decides to allow them to reconstruct.
Could the Israelis move to USA, UK and Germany as the Establishment in these countries are madly in love with Israel inspite of it being goverened by elements who are no less vile than the Nazis.? It would be great, if Germany, atoning for the Holocaust it inflicted on the Jews, carves out a piece from its own territory and gives that as a gift to the Jews to set up a sovereign state.
@artlover648 What about you moving to Iran or Yemen? You gonna love it 👌👌👌
@@artlover648Valid point.
@@aigaoliveira3278 Only a moron can give such a suggestion without knowing my background.
It took Kermit Roosevelt Jr two weeks to plan Eisenhower’s CIA Coup in Iran. The Coup removed Iran’s democratically elected leader Mossadeq, and installed the Shah as an American puppet. (CIA Operation Ajax…MI6 Operation Boot 1953)
pretty much u sin against the rules of war the generals bible u r not worthy
RACIST….this BLACK PASTOR, why mentioned the color of the skin????
