IRGC Houthis Seizing This Port Is WORSE Than You Think

About this video

Max analyzes what he describes as recent Houthi activity near the Bab al-Mandab strait, attributing it to Iranian backing. He recounts reports that Saudi Arabia’s crown prince has requested U.S. strikes, but suggests the U.S. is encouraging Saudi Arabia to re-engage militarily instead. Max interprets these developments as part of what he sees as Iranian pressure tactics ahead of U.S. midterm elections.

Key takeaways

• Max describes Houthi control of ports near strategic chokepoints as part of what he characterizes as Iranian Revolutionary Guard pressure tactics
• According to Max’s account, the U.S. is providing intelligence support but pushing Saudi Arabia to conduct its own strikes rather than intervening directly
• Max views this situation as what he calls Iran’s attempt to disrupt international economies through control of maritime chokepoints
