Your chapter "Humanitarian Crisis Yemen" was grossly inaccurate and blatantly anti-Saudi, and you literally only gave Houthi war crimes 1-2 sentences in that entire chapter. You failed to mention, when speaking of Saudi air strikes that were later found to have struck a hospital or a water plant, that the Houthis used these facilities as SNIPER positions; Amnesty International reported this. When the Houthis use water treatment facilities and hospitals as sniper positions, that is a war crime! It is a war crime because people being shot out don't know what kind of a building they are being shot at from, they just know that there are people shooting at them from that building and they have to be taken out before they kill or wound more of their side. You completely IGNORED reporting this and you, as an amateur historian who has such a huge audience who trust you to report the facts, I would think you would know better. 1.) www.voanews.com/a/amnesty-international-urges-houthis-to-leave-hodeida-hospital-in-yemen/4650337.html 2.) www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/yemen-war-houthi-rebels-hospitals-hodeidah-civilians-human-shields-amnesty-a8623981.html You also failed to talk about specifics of the blockade. You failed to mention that the Saudi's are only trying to prevent WEAPONS from getting into Saudi Arabia. You failed to report that the blockade is meant to stop weapons from getting into the country from Somalia that are being sent from Iran to MURDER and KILL more Yemeni's. You also failed to mention how the legitimate government of Yemen has authorized this because they don't want to see their citizens murdered by machine guns and AK-47's being to the Houthis by Iran through Somalia. 1.) www.arabnews.com/node/1742621/middle-east 2.) ruclips.net/video/cRWd4Avj-ik/видео.html Also, you mentioned that children are dying in record numbers in Yemen. You failed to mention why. It's because the Houthis are FORCING children into their Army, a war crime in itself, and planting landmines throughout the country, which are completely non-discriminatory or controllable weapons which kill indiscriminately, and STEALING the food aid sent to the country, starving any children that haven't been drafted. 1.) english.aawsat.com/home/article/2571126/houthis-recruit-46000-child-soldiers-2020 2.) www.hrw.org/news/2019/04/22/yemen-houthi-landmines-kill-civilians-block-aid# 3.) www.yemenembassy.org/news/factsheet2/ Did you mention how the Saudi coalition sends MILLIONS of dollars' worth of FOOD to Yemen to alleviate the crisis? You didn't say ONE WORD about it. 1.) www.thenationalnews.com/gulf-news/saudi-arabia-donates-40-million-for-world-food-programme-in-yemen-1.1172074 This video you posted was a failure to tell the full truth and point the finger at the actual responsible party for the crisis in Yemen, Iran and their Houthi puppets. As a long time viewer of your channel, I am disappointed in the quality of this video when it comes to telling the truth and revealing all the facts, and instead you hid some of the truth and failed to reveal all the facts. Disappointing.
I know right? Yemen does not get half the attention it deserves, compare to Iraq or Afghanistan. Hell even Libya 🇱🇾 and Syria 🇸🇾 gets more coverage 😑 than Yemen 🇾🇪.

@N Fels it's good to see someone who sees what the problem with the news is and doesn't just complain about a grand conspiracy. Even on RUclips it's true. Some asshole influencer creates stupid drama and it's 4m views. Detailed history or analysis gets 100k. At least we get the 100k video at all.
@N Fels News channels, particularly international news channels, routinely have half hour and hour long shows and documentaries on geopolitics and history around the world. But yes, local news is not news and national news is mostly propaganda.

Wow, a lot more to this than just Saudi Arabia fighting with Iran using Yemen as the battle ground. Great video, hopefully it get better their for everyone soon. It's an extremely sad statistic that 70% of the casualties are kids under the age of 5, that's almost hard to wrap my mind around but I never underestimate the evil humans can do to humans.

Wonderful documentary, as a Yemeni journalist I appreciate your research. One thing I would say Saudi entered into conflict with the Houthis before Decisive Storm. By November 2009 Saudi was carrying out air and ground operations as part of Operation Scorched Earth by the Saleh-led Yemeni government in Sa'dah.

I love this video. I'm currently doing research on the history of Yemen and this was super informative and easy to listen to. The country has such rich, but horrible history. I hope it gets better for the common people there, because they just don't deserve this. Nobody does. And especially children. This conflict needs more attention and I don't get why this isn't on the news. I'll try my best to spread the word to raise awareness, so that this horrible situation might come to an end one day.
Only because of the topic was this difficult to watch. The presentation was fantastic, and engaging, which gave me more to consider than expected. Thank you.
I still remember my friends in yemen, hamad abdullah, hashem, haeel and all my co workers..my heart bleeds, dont know if they are still alive, I was there for a year in 2003, I visited all the beautiful places, they were so friendly and they loved us from the Philippines ...

As a half Saudi visiting family here in the kingdom at the moment it’s crazy how little people know about the conflict or want to speak about it. I think the government is very insecure about the Shia influence from Iran particularly in the Hasa region of Saudi (the region with all the oil) which has a large Shia minority. The Saudi government sees the Arabian peninsula as its backyard like the US with the Monroe doctrine and when Iran started arming Shia militias (who many people sympathize with even though they recently committed war crimes too) it’s not hard to see why Saudi attacked when their desalination plants and oil reserves are under threat (without the oil Saudi would just be a joke among the international community). I actually have many Yemeni friends here in Saudi but they aren’t saying much about the conflict; however, it’s obvious they feel for their people that are suffering through such a messy war. Needless to say I condemn all war crimes especially Saudi airstrikes on hospitals and civilian areas and have had many arguments with friends and family over this.
Believe me it is not about Shia or Suni it is about control ,power and resources .Airstrike doesnt harm Houthi rather gives him more reasons to justify the inflation and more taxes on people here.
11:08 wait a minute - that is a camera feed of Stuttgart, Germany. This is the center of my hometown, about 5000km away from Yemen. Never expected to see this stock footage in a video like this :D

I think that's rule one of looking at history, especially more modern history where the media will always try to paint a narrative of 'good guys' and 'bad guys', that there are simply matters of differing perspective, some certainly more palatable than others but ultimately understandable.

thanks for covering Yemen. all western news channel ignore the conflict intentionally as Western nations profits from the suffering of the Yemeni people.
Not really. It's just too hard for us to comprehend with all the competing factions involved, Shias against Sunnis, tribes, etc. How does a Westerner pick a side in that mess?

Russia ukraine issue is newer this time around. Most probably don't know that they have been fighting since 2014 but this level of conflict is new. Russia is also threatening other countries and nuclear war. It is a far more dangerous conflict that affects other countries. I think that because some middle eastern countries fight all the time that we have become numb to it.
@@sherimiller8446 I only agree with the last part most of the News paper are western propaganda Russia wouldn’t attack anyone while invading Ukraine and lastly Ukraine is much important to the US and is a ally while Saudi is an ally so they don’t take actions for there war crimes
I have studied a minor in Middle Eastern Studies and this conflict is fascinating and complicated. In one hand, Yemen as a country is incapable of remaining united, it’s geography, cultures and poverty will forever tear it apart. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia is too afraid of having an unstable neighbor next to them, specially a Shia state friendly to Iran. The thought of a hostile state supplying weapons to Beduin desert tribes or bombing of their oil fields is basically a recipe to breakdown Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this conflict will not end until the Saudis run out of money.
nah It'll end when the Houthis are out but who knows what will happen with the two parts of Yemen after the war, cuz many in the south believe unification can't stay, only time will till
I only care about South Yemen. Let's hope the South resolves the Electricity issue that has been plaguing the city of Aden since the conflict kicked off in 2015. The Saudis supposedly are here to defeat the Houthis and war was meant to last no more than a few months however, ended up going for 7 years and is still going. What a complete farce. I just think the Saudis are either too pathetically feeble or just playing delay tactics to prolong the war and eventually want to control the whole of Yemen. Which obviously, would be in their dreams as the South has no interest in the continuation of this farcical unification. In Summery this whole war came about due to :- 1. Poor unification between North and South Yemen. With the South now wanting their country back as former president Saleh reneged on the unification agreement which effectively caused a failure of the unification in 1994. 2. Power craze former President Saleh wanting to control Yemen by himself and his family 3. Iran pushing to get a power grip in the ME region So you see Yemen has many issues dating back to many years..............................
I'm subscribing just because of this video you spoke nothing but the truth and videos like this especially on the Yemeni civil war are only one and it's this one
The thing i love about this channel is you are completely unafraid of discussing these types of conflicts in history. I've heard 100 different times about WW2 and this battle and that but im glad someone speaks on the more modern and relevant conflicts sense I sure as fuck won't hear about it on the news.
@Long live Sunni Iraq 🇮🇶 Believe me Saudia had no interest in doing any good towards yemen but rather felt threatened. The conflict between Yemen and the Saudis crown goes back to the 90s and one fact you might don’t know about, yemen and oman are one of the rarest countries where sunnis and shias live together in peace and that’s what’s happening nowadays
Can you add a donation link for Yemen like you have for Ukraine? Considering the conflict there is still ongoing (as it is in Syria and Ethiopia and others) I think it would be appropriate.
Excellent video Hilbert very informative on an extremely complex topic. As an episode suggestion for your world War 2 series can you do a video about China's role during the Second World War. They had a very important but largely forgotten role in the war and they suffered some of the worst atrocities of the entire war and indeed of world history such as the rape of nanking in which Japanese troops raped up to 80 thousand women, savagely murdered babies, children and women and killed upwards of 300, 000 civilians and destroyed 1/3 of the entire city. I think a discussion of this would make an excellent episode shedding light on an event almost completely unknown of in the west.
All you cover is the air strikes on Yemen part but you didn't cover how many rockets, ballistic missiles, shell hitting Saudi Arabia specifically Jazan region.

Im a canadian... Im apart of the canadian infantry im a scout sniper have been since i was 21... dose yemen have a volunteer enrollment sighn up sheet? Medics, gunners, or even just to bring food/supplies to areas that it is needed like absolutely anything any info would be absolutely amazing stay blessed all❤️
Depends on who you are talking about specifically 😅 The southern separatist movement will agree to your joining because it considers it a media victory and evidence of Western support. On the other hand, the legitimate Yemeni government will also agree, but at the same time you will work in an environment that is being bombed by the Houthis, which is very dangerous if You went to the Saudis, you will find yourself working in charitable and humanitarian donations, but it only goes to the "liberated" areas. If you go to the Houthis, you may be arrested, as happened with some Americans and Germans, or you may be treated like African mercenaries with the Houthis. "Believe me, you do not want this treatment."
You completely missed the 2004 - 2011 period when Yemeni army and the Houthis fought six wars in which the Ansar Allah , the Houthies were increasingly victorious. Also you omitted the fact that if it wasn't the Emirati and Saudi invasion in 2015 it was in a matter of weeks if not days for the Ansar allah to take over all of Yemen.
Honestly the Houthis are impressive. Though they do have Iranian backing, Iran can't support them as much as they do with Hezbollah, but still they fight the Saudi Army effectively, one of the most well armed armies in the middle east.
It’s not about military comparison, sure the saudis is more powerful, but the crown prince of saudi arabia said they could retake whole yemen in 2 days but it will be at the cost of many civilians and damage cities infrastructure, plus the houthis use dirty tactics which is attack and retreat to highly densely populated city or town to avoid air strikes.
@@Reznov141 yeah pla pla the same excuses saudies use every time they couldn't take yemen even if they try for decade saudi arabia killed millions and millions of innocent civilans you really think they care about yemen
@@LORD-AM Houthis aren't that strong they got kicked out of the south in months and don't forget lately shabwa in two weeks and southern marib in two weeks and a half and now some parts of harad district, Houthis are holding Northern Yemen hostage but Yemenis will be free from their hands soon(hopefully soon)
yemen was unified quite recently I'd say 60 years ago, then the south realized it aint working so they tried to split but they couldn't, anyways yeah I guess they will hundred percent spilt after this war if not they'll at least turn it into a federal state
Wouldn't a simple solution be South and North Yemen forming different countries? If I remember correctly they use to be different countries but then United
Alright video, wish it also highlighted the economic aspect of why the UAE and SA are so invested in this war since the natsec reasoning is more a smokescreen. I'd recommend Isa Blumi's lectures on YT or his book for the economic aspects of the war.
I don’t really understand a lot because I’m not educated on a lot of the internal political issues in the Middle East regarding religion etc. But this a really great and educational video, you put a lot of effort into this and deserve more recognition. I enjoyed watching this a lot.
In religious regions and religious countries, "religion" is a tool used by the Sultans/Kings and Royals to control the local populous, while the locals practice the religion the powerful and wealthy go out in lavish parties do things that are considered "haram" and get away with it by hiding it really well, because if scandals erupt then the islamic constitution will strip the royals from their royalty. This is not only in the middle east, but in Europe and Christian countries, religion is overall a tool
There were only six Jews left in Yemen as of 2021 and all are in jail the remaining 60 were evacuated after being threatened with imprisonment by the houthis they are now in the UAE. Please fix can give sources .....
Hi, not sure if you're just listening to this or watching as well but I misspoke when I said most of the Jews remained but put a note on the screen saying that what I'd meant to say was that most had gone.

You also failed to mention how the legitimate government of Yemen has authorized this because they don't want to see their citizens murdered by machine guns and AK-47's being to the Houthis by Iran through Somalia.

Also, you mentioned that children are dying in record numbers in Yemen. You failed to mention why. It's because the Houthis are FORCING children into their Army, a war crime in itself, and planting landmines throughout the country, which are completely non-discriminatory or controllable weapons which kill indiscriminately, and STEALING the food aid sent to the country, starving any children that haven't been drafted.

This video you posted was a failure to tell the full truth and point the finger at the actual responsible party for the crisis in Yemen, Iran and their Houthi puppets. As a long time viewer of your channel, I am disappointed in the quality of this video when it comes to telling the truth and revealing all the facts, and instead you hid some of the truth and failed to reveal all the facts. Disappointing.
Cheers for covering such an underrepresented conflict, mate.
I know right? Yemen does not get half the attention it deserves, compare to Iraq or Afghanistan. Hell even Libya 🇱🇾 and Syria 🇸🇾 gets more coverage 😑 than Yemen 🇾🇪.

Even on RUclips it's true. Some asshole influencer creates stupid drama and it's 4m views. Detailed history or analysis gets 100k. At least we get the 100k video at all.
@N Fels News channels, particularly international news channels, routinely have half hour and hour long shows and documentaries on geopolitics and history around the world. But yes, local news is not news and national news is mostly propaganda.
Can you do a documentary of the Syrian civil war and it’s complex and ever changing sides? The 1990’s Afghan civil war would be interesting as well
That's certainly something I'd like to cover in this series if this one gets some traction!

This conflict needs more attention and I don't get why this isn't on the news. I'll try my best to spread the word to raise awareness, so that this horrible situation might come to an end one day.

People forget that not every civil war is just two relatively equal sides, its often a free for all with shifting alliances.

As a half Saudi visiting family here in the kingdom at the moment it’s crazy how little people know about the conflict or want to speak about it. I think the government is very insecure about the Shia influence from Iran particularly in the Hasa region of Saudi (the region with all the oil) which has a large Shia minority. The Saudi government sees the Arabian peninsula as its backyard like the US with the Monroe doctrine and when Iran started arming Shia militias (who many people sympathize with even though they recently committed war crimes too) it’s not hard to see why Saudi attacked when their desalination plants and oil reserves are under threat (without the oil Saudi would just be a joke among the international community). I actually have many Yemeni friends here in Saudi but they aren’t saying much about the conflict; however, it’s obvious they feel for their people that are suffering through such a messy war. Needless to say I condemn all war crimes especially Saudi airstrikes on hospitals and civilian areas and have had many arguments with friends and family over this.

Good video!
Love the new style
the quality is so insane, thank you for making this
I love how you pronounce it Houti sometimes
I have studied a minor in Middle Eastern Studies and this conflict is fascinating and complicated. In one hand, Yemen as a country is incapable of remaining united, it’s geography, cultures and poverty will forever tear it apart. On the other hand, Saudi Arabia is too afraid of having an unstable neighbor next to them, specially a Shia state friendly to Iran. The thought of a hostile state supplying weapons to Beduin desert tribes or bombing of their oil fields is basically a recipe to breakdown Saudi Arabia. Therefore, this conflict will not end until the Saudis run out of money.
nah It'll end when the Houthis are out but who knows what will happen with the two parts of Yemen after the war, cuz many in the south believe unification can't stay, only time will till
I only care about South Yemen. Let's hope the South resolves the Electricity issue that has been plaguing the city of Aden since the conflict kicked off in 2015.
The Saudis supposedly are here to defeat the Houthis and war was meant to last no more than a few months however, ended up going for 7 years and is still going. What a complete farce.
I just think the Saudis are either too pathetically feeble or just playing delay tactics to prolong the war and eventually want to control the whole of Yemen. Which obviously, would be in their dreams as the South has no interest in the continuation of this farcical unification.
In Summery this whole war came about due to :-
1. Poor unification between North and South Yemen. With the South now wanting their country back as former president Saleh reneged on the unification agreement which effectively caused a failure of the unification in 1994.
2. Power craze former President Saleh wanting to control Yemen by himself and his family
3. Iran pushing to get a power grip in the ME region
So you see Yemen has many issues dating back to many years..............................

Believe me Saudia had no interest in doing any good towards yemen but rather felt threatened. The conflict between Yemen and the Saudis crown goes back to the 90s and one fact you might don’t know about, yemen and oman are one of the rarest countries where sunnis and shias live together in peace and that’s what’s happening nowadays
I hope you're doing well mate

Thanks alot, Nasser(!)
Way to go, guys! Nothing like a good rumble.
Excellent video Hilbert very informative on an extremely complex topic.
As an episode suggestion for your world War 2 series can you do a video about China's role during the Second World War. They had a very important but largely forgotten role in the war and they suffered some of the worst atrocities of the entire war and indeed of world history such as the rape of nanking in which Japanese troops raped up to 80 thousand women, savagely murdered babies, children and women and killed upwards of 300, 000 civilians and destroyed 1/3 of the entire city. I think a discussion of this would make an excellent episode shedding light on an event almost completely unknown of in the west.
Thank you for this. Not enough people speaking about this conflict
Incredibly informative video! I would love to see you cover more Modern Conflicts like this!
Very good arabic pronunciation! props Hilbert
I'm very happy I found your channel and the Morning brew! I've learned more in one morning than I've learned in months watching the mainstream media.

So happy you do this war was just on my mind and you made a video just in time😊
Im a canadian... Im apart of the canadian infantry im a scout sniper have been since i was 21... dose yemen have a volunteer enrollment sighn up sheet? Medics, gunners, or even just to bring food/supplies to areas that it is needed like absolutely anything any info would be absolutely amazing stay blessed all❤️
Depends on who you are talking about specifically 😅 The southern separatist movement will agree to your joining because it considers it a media victory and evidence of Western support. On the other hand, the legitimate Yemeni government will also agree, but at the same time you will work in an environment that is being bombed by the Houthis, which is very dangerous if You went to the Saudis, you will find yourself working in charitable and humanitarian donations, but it only goes to the "liberated" areas. If you go to the Houthis, you may be arrested, as happened with some Americans and Germans, or you may be treated like African mercenaries with the Houthis. "Believe me, you do not want this treatment."
I wasn't aware that Academy was involved in this conflict. BTW now days they are called Trippel Canopy.
A sad fate for a country with potential.
literally every country that Iran interferes with/in
Good video and all just for the record though that transition music made me remember the good old says of p games
This is some professional work mate. And your Arabic pronunciation sounds almost fluent.
You completely missed the 2004 - 2011 period when Yemeni army and the Houthis fought six wars in which the Ansar Allah , the Houthies were increasingly victorious. Also you omitted the fact that if it wasn't the Emirati and Saudi invasion in 2015 it was in a matter of weeks if not days for the Ansar allah to take over all of Yemen.
Honestly the Houthis are impressive. Though they do have Iranian backing, Iran can't support them as much as they do with Hezbollah, but still they fight the Saudi Army effectively, one of the most well armed armies in the middle east.
do you know that
saudi arabia the second most army in the world pay for wepons and still they lose against houthies
even more than russia and china
It’s not about military comparison, sure the saudis is more powerful, but the crown prince of saudi arabia said they could retake whole yemen in 2 days but it will be at the cost of many civilians and damage cities infrastructure, plus the houthis use dirty tactics which is attack and retreat to highly densely populated city or town to avoid air strikes.
@@Reznov141
yeah pla pla
the same excuses saudies use every time
they couldn't take yemen even if they try for decade
saudi arabia killed millions and millions of innocent civilans you really think they care about yemen
@@LORD-AM Houthis aren't that strong they got kicked out of the south in months and don't forget lately shabwa in two weeks and southern marib in two weeks and a half and now some parts of harad district, Houthis are holding Northern Yemen hostage but Yemenis will be free from their hands soon(hopefully soon)
@@lfmsmka
that is what the media show
you can see the truth on thier channel instead of the shitty lies they show you on tv every day
very informative.. thank you
Love you History man
Went out to boat, and hoped for a favorable tide... Very nice line.
wasnt Yemen already split in two during the cold war and now it's getting split again
?
Thats what I thought. I dont know why they didnt just stay split, they clearly cant get along
yemen was unified quite recently I'd say 60 years ago, then the south realized it aint working so they tried to split but they couldn't, anyways yeah I guess they will hundred percent spilt after this war if not they'll at least turn it into a federal state
Perfectly described in a nutshell. Thank you
This is a very complex conflict, without an easy solution.
Wouldn't a simple solution be South and North Yemen forming different countries? If I remember correctly they use to be different countries but then United
It’s simple solution really…get scum USA out there….tell them to stop interfering with everyone
@@CalvinCooke18 the USA isnt the only one inferring
@@CalvinCooke18 cough Saudi cough
I wish the best for Yemenis from Iran
Enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Alright video, wish it also highlighted the economic aspect of why the UAE and SA are so invested in this war since the natsec reasoning is more a smokescreen. I'd recommend Isa Blumi's lectures on YT or his book for the economic aspects of the war.
Love the geopolitical videos!
Make a video about the Somali civil war?
I don’t really understand a lot because I’m not educated on a lot of the internal political issues in the Middle East regarding religion etc. But this a really great and educational video, you put a lot of effort into this and deserve more recognition. I enjoyed watching this a lot.
No i don't think
In religious regions and religious countries, "religion" is a tool used by the Sultans/Kings and Royals to control the local populous, while the locals practice the religion the powerful and wealthy go out in lavish parties do things that are considered "haram" and get away with it by hiding it really well, because if scandals erupt then the islamic constitution will strip the royals from their royalty.
This is not only in the middle east, but in Europe and Christian countries, religion is overall a tool
You should also do a history of today about Venezuela and how everything went to shit
There were only six Jews left in Yemen as of 2021 and all are in jail the remaining 60 were evacuated after being threatened with imprisonment by the houthis they are now in the UAE. Please fix can give sources .....
Hi, not sure if you're just listening to this or watching as well but I misspoke when I said most of the Jews remained but put a note on the screen saying that what I'd meant to say was that most had gone.
@@historywithhilbert thank you . Both for the work in general you do which educates thousands... And caring and fixing when error .many RUclips'rs don't . Much respect ! Other than that really amazing video and I think one of the most neutral I've ever seen on the subject.
New sub, nice relevancy. Keep it up.
The Mehdi isn't the messiah in Islam man, Christ is. basic research.
Otherwise decent video.
Yeah this wouldnt have happen if you made this video now would it ......seriously you should make a video on the topic ...just a saying
Holy shit hi Hakim!!!!
Christ is messiah Mahdi will be the caliphate.
i hope this war ends sooner than we think
Yemen maybe be considered now the wild west of the Arab world, however its for the most part of its History been the most respected Region In the Arab world and the place were modern day Arabs originate from
Historically the most respected places were Syria /Levant 🇸🇾🇱🇧🇵🇸🇯🇴 and Iraq 🇮🇶 and Egypt 🇪🇬, but Yemen was respected as well
Very impressive...
