USA wants Bab El Mandab. Also they are worried that it might fall into the hands of a country which would be friendly towards Iran.

and US already lost control of the PErsian Gulf......

Is that so. It would be interesting to see how your little dinghy swarms would hold up against the American navy in the Arabian gulf.

Also the USA seems to be able to work freely in the region. Why just at the start of the year they carried out some routine maintenance by liquidating some Salami guy. Not sure if you know him.

really we don't care that much about Arabian Gulf , its egyptian duty to think about that and plan how they want counter USA presence there.

by the way you knew Portogual was also superpower of its time , they also were roaming freely in persian gulf but one they they wake up and saw their flagship here get captured and their castle also were overran and fallen.
by the way usa roam freely in half of the persian gulf not all of it. let me tell you a secret , British empire and portogual were roaming freely in all of it ,but were are they?

What a dumb question

Khamenaistic regime is stealing money from Iran's poor in order to kill Yemen's poor and fuel sectarianism and terror.

Same pattern everywhere.

The one that is bombing Yemen is Saudis and UAE with direct help of american air fueling,ammunition and logistic not Iran ...we've seem the same pattern in Syria and Libya .. as they sent troops to Bahrain to crackdown people protest and were too close to occupy Qatar...
We don't have forces there but as it seems american have troops there and try to cover it in a very childish way:

AS there was isreail drones in this war:

Saudi and UAE intervention in Yemen started AFTER Khamenai backed sectarian terrorists started a war in order to capture entire Yemen. And while Khamenai aka Assad aka Putin forces destroyed thousands villages and towns in Syria, not a single one was destroyed by Saudis in Yemen.

Ironic that before Houthi baboons sectarian division was never an issue in Yemen. Saudis supported Shia Saleh against South Sunni commies.

Saudi Arabia needs Turkish assistance in Yemen if they wish to counter Iranian style arming of militias. Saudi Arabia relying too much on supporting traditional parties and going with traditional approach which is not going to give them the upper hand. Iran doesn't care and Iranian leadership is sectarian and will gladly arm Shi'ite militias to make them dominant party of these nations. If you are going to ignore that and revamp your strategy that I'm not sure who can help you.

Iran want to heavily arm Houthi's as part of long term strategy of coercing Saudi Arabia to accept their domination of Gulf region and accept them as regional power. Saudi's are not making effort to counter this by being backer for Sunni parties in region and so its future doesn't look good as its security will continue to deteriorate over time.

Eventually I believe Pakistan will have to bring peace in Yemen, but having Turkey there is also a good idea. They have experience with Iranian proxies too.

Arming Houthis bodes ill for the region. Here I was hoping for peace and return to normalcy.

Saudis has been intervened in Yemen just AFTER Khamenai backed sectarian terrorists started a war ? Shia Saleh?

"...The tools it relied upon were oil money and Wahhabi Islam. During the 1980s, Saudi Arabia spent more than $75bn on the propagation of Wahhabi doctrine, funding schools, mosques, and charities across the Islamic world in an effort to bolster its influence.A large share of these resources was reserved for its back garden, Yemen. Thousands of schools were established, covering every city and village in Yemen.(exactly like Afghanistan with the help of american ended in creation of ALQ and Taliban) Saudi Arabia created in Yemen a strong Wahhabi current that was politically and ideologically loyal to the ruling al-Saud. Indeed, Yemen's president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, used imported Wahhabism to defeat his domestic opponents – first the communists, then the Houthis – despite being a Zaidi Shia.
But now this policy has backfired, with the Houthis openly rebelling against Wahhabi encroachment on their religious ideology, while themselves encroaching on neighbouring Saudi territory as they fight the government.
After four months of fighting, Saleh's domestic forces had failed to contain the revolt. So, unable to prosecute the war on his own, Saleh turned a domestic rebellion into a sectarian and security threat to the entire Arabian peninsula, thereby manoeuvring the Saudis – eager from the outset to help Saleh, whom they view as their proxy – into providing military backing..."​

Yemen has never been a wahhabi place but it has been:

"...Followers of Zayd established themselves in north Yemen’s rugged mountains in the ninth century. For the next thousand years, the Zaydis fought for control of Yemen with various degrees of success. A succession of Zaydi Imams ruled the community and Zaydis were the majority of the population in the mountains of the north. They fought against both the Ottomans and the Wahhabis in the 18th and 19th centuries.

With the collapse of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, a Zaydi monarchy took power in North Yemen called the Mutawakkilite Kingdom. The ruler, or imam, was both a secular ruler and a spiritual leader. Their kingdom fought and lost a border war with Saudi Arabia in the 1930s, losing territory to the Saudi state. They also enjoyed international recognition as the legitimate government of North Yemen. Their capital was in Taiz..."​

And when you call them terrorist can you explain it to me?

Senior US intelligence official Michael Vickers said Jan. 21 (2015) that the United States is continuing attacks on al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) despite ongoing violence in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, and has an intelligence relationship with the Houthi insurgent group that has seized much of the capital since September.
While news reports have focused on Iranian support for the Houthis and suggested that they represent a threat to US operations against al-Qaeda’s most potent franchise, Vickers, in response to a question from Al-Monitor, stated, “The Houthis are anti al-Qaeda, and we’ve been able to continue some of our counterterrorism operations against al-Qaeda in the past months.” Asked after the public event whether that included lines of intelligence to the Houthis, Vickers said, “That’s a safe assumption.”

“From 2004 to 2010, the Houthis won wars against the Yemeni government without Iran,” Schmitz pointed out. “Iran’s role now is non-essential, and the Houthis won’t take orders from them.”
chmitz said that Iran has provided support in recent months but that the Houthis would have rebelled against the government with or without Tehran’s backing.
“They are not terrorists,” Schmitz said. He called the Houthis' backing of US attacks on AQAP “an alliance of convenience.” The tough part now, he said, is “talking sense to the Saudis” and getting them to agree to more influence for the Houthis in the Yemeni government. The Saudis may have little choice.
American intelligence officials said that Iran was actually trying to discourage the Houthis from seizing Sanaa and openly toppling Hadi. Iran preferred a less radical course, but the Houthi leadership was drunk with success.


​

So they've been there a long time before Khmaenie got born and fought for these lands for centuries fighting Ottomans and the Wahhabis establishing monarchy fought and lost a border war with Saudi Arabia in the 1930s ...
So where is Iran in all these? and why they are terrorists? if they are terrorists then why american teamed up with them against ALQ? and why american saying they were no taking order from Iran?or Khamenei as you described?

Houthis were a small bunch of smoking weed baboons in mountains. You armed them to teeth and bribed north Yemen generals, turning them together into a sectarian terrorist army.

Small bunch of smoking weed baboons defeated Saleh and made him to ask Saudis to come in to get eventually defeated? what is clear is Saudis and the UAE has invaded Yemen, Bombed infrastructure , stadium and ... with the help of american bombs, intelligence an logistic ... The Saudi-led coalition has tightened the blockade has created a humanitarian disaster, with millions of Yemenis at dire risk of starvation and disease ...
Even if Iran has armed them to the teeth none of them is compared to PAC3, THAD, F15,Apache, Awacs , Abrams and tens of other military equipment provided by american and western countries used by Saudis to level Yemenis infrastructures ... and still they can not defeat a small bunch of smoking weed baboons .... the Q is what the hell american doing 6000kms away from the borders in our region?and why their best regional allies are a bunch of oil rich dictators whom are behind almost entire regional conflict, wars and terrorism?
What is matters is Iran has done everything to stop the war but the other side is always after war and destruction:

Saleh took Houthis as allies to take back bower after he was thrown in Arab Spring. But everyone who takes Khamenaists as allies pays heavy price.

Look at all countries who allowed Khamenaism inside them: Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, Yemen... All are a disaster.

Smoking weed in the mountain baboons have been resisting a war for 5 years. US have been arming and helping UAE and Saudi for how many decades? If it is all about arms, why haven't the Arab coalition been effective in its goal to topple the Houthis within 1 week? They have much more arms and money than Houthis, haven't they?

1) They got arms of entire North Yemen Army.
2) They have multibillion support from Iran.
3) Saudis dont use Khamenai-Putin methods in Yemen, wiping out entire towns and villages.

Houthis are still armed with RPGs and AKs. It's Yemen army that operate the goodies .

 

[mangekyo]

1) They got arms of entire North Yemen Army.

Yemen have been under a blockade for 5 years. Arab coalition have been getting unlimited arms from US

2) They have multibillion support from Iran.

They have support from UAE, Morocco, Saudi, Egypt, US, and even Norway in the past.

3) Saudis don't use Khamenai-Putin methods in Yemen, wiping out entire towns and villages.

Houthis doesn't have an air force. Arab coalition have been dropping bombs on Yemen for 5 years.

Israelis are known worldwide for having no humanity, celebrating cluster strikes and phosphor bombs on Palestinian children. Even celebrating the explosion in Beirut. It fits you perfect to support the Arab coalitions bombing Yemeni children. I would expect nothing else from you.
