A vital artery for Saudi oil exports is under siege and it's not the Strait of Hormuz. Today on the show, we explain what's going on in the Bab el-Mandeb shipping lane connected to the Red Sea, why it's important, and why the global oil crisis is poised to get even worse.

Yemini-American Michigan State professor Shireen Al-Adeimi joins Bad Faith to explain how the July attack on Yemen's Sanaa international airport prompted a response from Ansar Allah that has resulted in Houthi control of Yemen's coastline including the Bab-el-Mandeb strait. How have Yeminis managed to be so successful despite the extreme poverty brought on by the years long blockade and constant bombing supported by four consecutive American administrations? Shireen provides broader historical context for the conflict, and opines on the inadequate support for Yeminis from the American elected left.

Hours before the Federal Reserve raised rates by 25 basis points on 16 September, Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf posted a rewritten version of the Taylor Rule, the formula central banks use to set interest rates, adding new terms for the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb. His argument: you can hike rates all you want, but you can't reopen a chokepoint or produce a barrel of oil. It's a sharp piece of commentary built on a real, decades-old debate in monetary economics, one the world already learned the hard way once, in the 1970s. Watch #Economix with ThePrint Consulting Editor (Economics) Bidisha Bhattacharya
Saudi Arabia has been facing attacks from Iran, the Houthis, and Shia militias in Iraq. The East-West Pipeline has been damaged, and shut. Houthis have made quick advances in Yemen, and are controlling the Bab al-Mandeb strait. #CutTheClutter Episode 1902 looks at the situation Saudi Arabia finds itself in- snubbed by Trump, left waiting by its Mecca pact partners Pakistan & Turkey, while battling attacks from the north, south and east. ThePrint Editor-In-Chief Shekhar Gupta also looks at how the Middle East equations have changed, and traces the way they have evolved over the years.

El estrecho de Bab el-Mandeb vuelve a situar a Yemen en el centro de las tensiones de Medio Oriente. La disputa entre los hutíes y Arabia Saudita tiene implicaciones para la seguridad regional, el comercio internacional y la rivalidad entre Riad y Teherán. ¿Qué buscan los hutíes en el mar Rojo? ¿Y hasta dónde está dispuesta a llegar Arabia Saudita para impedir que amplíen su influencia sobre una de las rutas marítimas más estratégicas del mundo? Lo analizamos en France 24.

Ansarallah avanza e controlla tutta la costa del Mar Rosso, incluso lo Stretto di Bab el Mandeb. L'Iran controlla Hormuz. L'Asse della Resistenza ha in mano due stretti fondamentali per l'economia mondiale. Ne parliamo con Marco Carnelos, ex ambasciatore in Iraq ed ex inviato speciale per la Siria e il processo di pace israelo-palestinese.
Question posée par le Wall Street Journal. « Le président Trump voudra peut-être oublier la guerre au Moyen-Orient avant les élections de mi-mandat, mais la guerre, elle, ne l'a pas oublié, pointe le quotidien américain. Les avancées des Houthis, alliés de l'Iran, au Yémen et dans la région de la mer Rouge, font basculer le conflit iranien au-delà du détroit d'Ormuz. (…) Hier, les Houthis ont conquis deux îles près du détroit de Bab el-Mandeb. Cette prise de contrôle faisait suite à celle de l'île de Perim et du port de Mokha. » Et désormais, « les Houthis affirment vouloir bloquer en mer Rouge les navires liés à l'Arabie saoudite. (…) Qui pourra les arrêter, donc ? L'Arabie saoudite consacre 70 milliards de dollars par an à sa défense et dispose d'une force aérienne performante. Cependant, pointe le Wall Street Journal, elle ne peut vaincre les Houthis par la seule force aérienne. La reconquête des îles et des ports stratégiques nécessitera l'envoi de troupes au sol. » Menace sur l'économie mondiale Et qui s'y risquerait ? Pas les Américains. « Le prince héritier saoudien Mohammed ben Salmane a appelé à deux reprises Donald Trump, pointe Die Welt à Berlin, pour lui demander une intervention directe afin de stopper les rebelles. Le président a refusé. Interrogé, le gouvernement américain s'est contenté de déclarer vouloir "donner aux partenaires régionaux les moyens de gérer et de relever les défis sécuritaires régionaux". En clair : les Saoudiens doivent régler leurs propres problèmes, relève Die Welt. Or, le problème en mer Rouge concerne toute l'économie mondiale. La fermeture simultanée du détroit de Bab el-Mandeb et du détroit d'Ormuz bloquerait 25 % du commerce mondial de pétrole et de gaz et 30 % du commerce maritime mondial de marchandises. » La paix, seule solution « L'Arabie saoudite a-t-elle définitivement perdu la main au Yémen ?, s'interroge Le Figaro à Paris. Si les Houthis semblent avoir consolidé le secteur de Mokha, celui de Bab el-Mandeb ne l'est pas encore, relève le journal, en raison de violents raids aériens saoudiens, ces derniers jours. Pour la première fois, l'Arabie vient d'utiliser, contre ses adversaires, un missile balistique de courte portée DF-15A, acquis il y a plus de deux décennies auprès de la Chine. » Mais, encore une fois, les bombardements ne seront pas suffisants pour l'emporter face aux Houthis. Seule solution, arriver à un accord de paix avec l'Iran, pointe la Repubblica à Rome : « Les Saoudiens comptent toujours sur l'aide américaine et sur la coopération en matière de renseignement avec Israël, et ils savent qu'un accord avec l'Iran est peut-être plus qu'une nécessité : il est inévitable. » Et en attendant, « la hausse des prix du carburant déclenche colère et manifestations dans le monde entier, de l'Indonésie au Guatemala en passant par la Syrie, le Portugal, les Philippines ou encore le Vietnam, relève le New York Times. Le monde est furieux — une fois de plus — face à la flambée des prix de l'énergie provoquée par la guerre avec l'Iran. » Catherine Ringer : « C'était comme ça » À la Une également la disparition d'une grande figure du rock français : Catherine Ringer, la chanteuse des Rita Mitsouko. Libération à Paris lui consacre sa Une, photo pleine page et ce titre : « On ne veut pas t'abandonner », référence aux paroles de la chanson « C'est comme ça ». « Catherine Ringer, c'était comme ça », titre d'ailleurs Libération en pages intérieures : « C'était une femme libre et passionnée, écrit le journal, et c'est d'abord pour ça que sa mort laisse un vide immense. Catherine Ringer ne ressemblait à personne d'autre, elle aimait la vie tout en chantant la mort, elle jouait la provoc et l'excentricité tout en aimant la simplicité, elle n'hésitait pas à s'enlaidir pour n'en devenir que plus belle, elle était une diva mais incroyablement populaire et ce sont ces mélanges qui en faisaient un être à part. (…) Catherine Ringer était bien la vie même, conclut Libération, et elle est morte comme son alter ego et guitariste, Fred Chichin, de manière fulgurante, nous laissant orphelins d'une femme, d'une musicienne mais aussi d'une militante pour les droits de tous les laissés-pour-compte et surtout pour les droits des femmes. »
CAPTION 1916 YEMEN FIGHTING.CONTENTS-JBS-9-14-2026Houthis Expand Reach Across Strategic WaterwaysBridget Toomey discusses how Houthi rebels rapidly expanded control across Yemen's western coast, seizing the strategic port of Mocha and Perim Island in the Bab el-Mandeb choke point. Yemeni armed forces conducted counter-operations in a designated killbox around Mocha while displaying strikes on Houthi positions. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabiaclosed its critical oil pipeline following drone attacks attributed to Iran-backed Iraqi militias operating in coordination with the Houthis. The Trump administration continues offering intelligence support to Saudi Arabia while maintaining its policy of avoiding direct airstrikes under an existing mutual non-engagement agreement. (1)Israeli Strikes Target Reconstituting Hamas LeadershipSamuel Ben-Ur analyzes recent Israel Defense Forces eliminations of key Hamas figures in Gaza, notably Khan Yuniscommander Muhammad Abdul Salam al-Yuzuri. Al-Yuzuri was actively attempting to rebuild the Qassam Brigadesand plan attacks prior to his elimination. Hamas maintains military dominance across thirty percent of the yellow line and remains heavily integrated within civilian population centers. Meanwhile, progress on the Board of Peace disarmament plan remains stalled until after Israeli elections due to political sensitivity surrounding territorial concessions. Ben-Ur notes that voluntary Hamas disarmament is improbable, highlighting alternative stabilization initiatives like pilot zones. (2)Historical Roots Shape Modern Yemeni ConflictGregory Copley details the deep historical context of Yemen, tracing its lineage from the ancient Sabaean kingdom through the Mutawakkilite Kingdom. He explains how Saudi hostility toward Northern Yemen stems partly from historical Hashemite claims to Mecca and Medina. Copley emphasizes that Northern Yemeni forces are tough professional fighters rather than simple rebel groups, driven to fight for survival against Saudi strikes. He suggests that Washington and London should engage in separate diplomatic negotiations, leveraging Oman's Sultan as a discreet mediator during upcoming visits to negotiate an accommodation and establish regional peace. (3)Latin American Leaders Engage European ForumErnesto Araújo and Alejandro Peña Esclusa discuss their participation in Slovenia's Bled Strategic Forum, highlighting growing Eastern European engagement with Latin America. Araújo draws parallels between Eastern Europe's 1989 liberation and Latin America's current struggle against narco-socialism. Regarding Venezuela, Peña Esclusa emphasizes that citizens reject interim president Delcy Rodríguez despite opposition leader María Corina Machado's primary victory. Turning to Brazil's upcoming election, Araújo outlines a major judicial scandal tying Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes to a fraudulent banker, severely impacting President Lula da Silva's reelection campaign against Flavio Bolsonaro. (4)Israeli Forces Detonate Strategic Hezbollah UndergroundDavid Daoud examines an Israeli detonation of Hezbollah's subterranean nerve center at Aita al-Shaab, which caused a 4.1 magnitude seismic event. The complex was originally designed for Hezbollah's planned invasion of the Galilee, a doctrine later mirrored by Hamas on October 7th. Daoud reports that Israeli forces are turning South Lebanon into a buffer zone to eliminate threats. However, he criticizes the Lebanese Armed Forces for failing to demonstrate real will to disarm Hezbollah, noting that 86% of reported LAF weapon seizures consisted merely of militarily insignificant bullets. (5)Canada Explores Strategic European Union AllianceConrad Black evaluates Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's proposal for a unique associate alliance with the European Union. Black notes Canadians would support freer trade and cultural exchanges, though full political submission to Brussels directives would be rejected. He highlights French President Emmanuel Macron's upcoming meeting with Carney in St. Pierre and Miquelon as a significant recognition of Canadian distinctiveness. Furthermore, Black criticizes U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff threats and trade deficit claims, pointing out that Canada sells oil at discounted rates and maintains balanced cross-border auto manufacturing integration. (6)Economic Analysis Exposes Costs Of TariffsVeronique de Rugy analyzes the economic consequences of trade wars, specifically examining cross-border tariffs between the United States and Canada. She refutes mercantilist arguments, demonstrating that domestic consumers shoulder tariff costs through higher prices and product scarcity rather than foreign producers paying the fees. De Rugy explains that protectionist tariffs harm domestic manufacturing by raising input costs on imported components. She notes that even domestic producers unexposed to foreign competition raise prices when shielded, and highlights how tariffs on Canadian lumber directly elevate American housing costs. (7)Russian Strikes Target Ukrainian Railway NetworksJohn Hardie assesses a Russian drone strike targeting a Ukrainian train near the Polish border where international VIPs and former European officials had recently passed. While French officials viewed the strike as intentional intimidation, Hardie notes precise Russian motives remain speculative. Additionally, Hardie analyzes reports surrounding President Trump's statements regarding an energy target ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia. He defends Ukraine's strategy of striking Russian oil refineries, explaining that disrupting refined diesel production effectively squeezes Moscow's military budget and creates domestic public pressure. (8)United States Secures Historic Venezuelan PetroleumSamuel Ben-Ur provides updates on Venezuela's political transition and energy sector, detailing a massive 25-year oil agreement executed with interim president Delcy Rodríguez. The deal involves North American companies redeveloping 17 oil fields containing 65 billion barrels of proved reserves, redirecting petroleum exports exclusively to the United States away from China and Russia. Ben-Ur notes that major firms like Chevron will lead a hundred-billion-dollar infrastructure revitalization effort. However, he emphasizes that no firm election date has been established, leaving the political timetable for returning to democratic governance uncertain. (9)BRICS Summit Highlights Internal Geopolitical FracturesMelik Kaylan, co-host Gordon Chang: Kaylan and Chang analyze the BRICS summit in India, characterizing the bloc as an incoherent coalition marked by deep internal rivalries, particularly between China and India. Kaylan explains that while member nations grandstand against Western policies in the Middle East, they lack real unified operational strength. Turning to Turkey, Kaylan argues President Erdoğan pursues neo-Ottoman expansionism across Syria, North Africa, and the Horn of Africa to distract from severe domestic economic weakness. Chang adds that Erdoğan reversed his prior support for Uyghurs to secure Chinese financial backing. (10)

Fini le temps où l'or noir coulait à flots et alimentait sans retenue l'économie mondiale. Depuis le début de la guerre en Iran, les robinets de pétrole se sont peu à peu fermés. Et depuis ces derniers jours, les événements s'accélèrent. C'est ce que constate notamment Le Monde à Paris : « L'Arabie saoudite, premier exportateur mondial de brut, a suspendu vendredi le fonctionnement de son oléoduc Est-Ouest, attaqué la veille par des drones provenant d'Irak. La principale infrastructure permettant au royaume d'exporter son or noir malgré la guerre au Moyen-Orient qui bloque le détroit d'Ormuz se trouve donc hors service. « De leur côté, poursuit Le Monde, les rebelles houthistes pro-iraniens du Yémen ont pris le contrôle du détroit de Bab el-Mandeb, un point de passage obligé pour les navires pétroliers sur la route la plus courte reliant l'Asie à l'Europe. Résultat : une hausse immédiate des cours du pétrole. Le baril de Brent de la mer du Nord a frôlé 110 dollars hier en séance, un niveau bien supérieur à ceux atteints au début de l'offensive israélo-américaine contre l'Iran. Le pétrole coûte 45 % de plus qu'en janvier, constate encore Le Monde, sans perspective de repli fort et rapide, malgré les propos rassurants de Donald Trump. » Déstabilisation et mouvements de grogne « Lentement mais sûrement, la guerre lancée inconsidérément par Donald Trump et Benyamin Netanyahu en Iran est en train de déstabiliser, non seulement la région, mais aussi les États-Unis et l'Europe, commente Libération. (…) Les approvisionnements en pétrole sont de plus en plus difficiles et le cours du baril, qui faisait jusqu'à présent du yo-yo, se remet à flamber. Et l'on ne voit pas bien ce qui pourrait freiner cette hausse. » Conséquence, relève encore Libération, « aux États-Unis, l'électorat trumpiste commence à s'impatienter devant un prix moyen du diesel qui grimpe, pour la première fois de son histoire, au-delà des 6 dollars le gallon. Et ce, alors que le vote anticipé pour les midterms sera lancé dès la semaine prochaine dans certains États. Donald Trump sait qu'il est menacé d'une déroute dans les urnes (…). Il n'est pas le seul dirigeant occidental visé par la grogne populaire. En France, les prix du carburant mettent en difficulté de nombreux secteurs et des appels à la mobilisation contre la vie chère dans plusieurs villes de France commencent à fleurir sur les réseaux sociaux. Certains appellent même à un retour des gilets jaunes en octobre. » Lutter contre les « malveillants » ? Alors que faire ? Comment rouvrir le robinet du pétrole ? Déjà, préconise le Times à Londres, « l'Occident devrait aider l'Arabie saoudite à combattre les Houthis. Les rebelles sont instrumentalisés par un Iran malveillant qui prend en otage le royaume désertique et contribue à saboter l'économie mondiale. Il est temps que la communauté internationale réagisse », estime le quotidien britannique qui précise : « L'Occident doit renforcer les défenses anti-drones et anti-missiles de l'Arabie saoudite. Il est impératif d'intensifier le partage de renseignements sur les sites de missiles et de drones houthis et de contribuer à enrayer le trafic de composants de missiles entre l'Iran et le Yémen. » Et il n'y a pas que l'Occident, s'exclame encore le Times : « la Chine et les autres consommateurs de pétrole du Moyen-Orient doivent s'impliquer dans la stabilisation du Yémen et la neutralisation de la menace que représentent les Houthis pour les voies maritimes. » « Consommer moins » ? En attendant, préconise le Süddeutsche Zeitung à Munich, « il n'y a qu'une seule solution à la pénurie mondiale de pétrole : consommer moins. C'est le message que nous transmettent les prix élevés. Les baisser artificiellement reviendrait à instaurer une normalité qui n'existe pas actuellement sur ce marché et qui ne reviendra peut-être pas de sitôt. Cela ne signifie pas pour autant (en Allemagne) que le gouvernement fédéral est impuissant : il peut développer les programmes d'incitation à l'achat de véhicules électriques – notamment pour les ménages à faibles revenus – et accélérer la construction des infrastructures de recharge. Mais s'il tente d'influer sur les prix à la pompe, cela ne peut que mal se terminer. »

1641 RED SEA PASSAGEHouthi Red Sea Offensive Exposes US Strategic Failure in the GulfGaius and Germanicus: Gathered in Londinium in 92 AD, the hosts analyze the worsening Middle Eastern crisis. They focus on the Houthi offensive capturing Mocha and the strategic Bab el-Mandeb choke point, which interdicts Saudi oil transport and pipeline routes. Germanicus compares this swift maneuver to Germany's 1940 invasion of Norway, contending that the United States has been completely outmaneuvered. With global energy flows disrupted and Saudi Arabia forced to rely on ineffective mercenaries, they conclude that American strategic hegemony in the Middle East is rapidly unraveling. (2)

Bryan covers a blockbuster report that Chinese satellite imagery helped Iran kill US troops in the Middle East last summer, followed by a mysterious "fragmentation event" that destroyed a Chinese spy satellite days later, plus a Houthi takeover of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait that now puts 4,000 US troops in Djibouti within easy striking range and is driving diesel and oil prices to fresh records. Plus, Bryan covers Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed's defense of sex-change surgeries for minors, a DHS confirmation that Rep. Ilhan Omar married her brother in an immigration scam, and a new Trump administration proposal to exclude illegal immigrants from the 2030 census count. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Wright Report, Bryan Dean Wright, AI Revolution, OpenAI, Anthropic, Elon Musk, David Sacks, China, satellite, Iran, Houthis, Bab el-Mandeb, Djibouti, oil prices, diesel, Abdul El-Sayed, transgender surgery, Ilhan Omar, immigration fraud, census, illegal immigration
Arabia Saudí llevaba meses anunciando una ofensiva contra los hutíes, fantaseaba incluso con recuperar el puerto de Hodeida y la capital, Saná. La sorpresa ha llegado del lado contrario. En unos pocos días las columnas hutíes han bajado por la costa occidental yemení, han tomado la ciudad de Moka y en solo unas horas se han hecho con Perim, un islote que que divide en dos el estrecho de Bab el-Mandeb. En 48 horas se hicieron además con el archipiélago de Hanish y el distrito de Dhubab. La geografía explica por qué importa este movimiento. Bab el-Mandeb es la contraparte de Ormuz, mide solo 20 kilómetros en su punto más angosto y por él pasaron durante el segundo trimestre del año más de 8 millones de barriles diarios de crudo y en torno al 12% del comercio mundial de todo tipo de mercancías. Quien se instala en Perim no necesita hundir barcos, le basta con recordar que puede hacerlo. El problema añadido es que el mar Rojo se había convertido en una válvula de escape para saudíes y emiratíes desde que la guerra entre Estados Unidos e Irán cerró el estrecho de Ormuz. Ahora Irán y su red de milicias aliadas controlan los dos cuellos de botella de forma simultánea. El origen de este problema se remonta a 2014, cuando los fundamentalistas de Ansar Alá salieron de las montañas del norte de Yemen y tomaron su capital. Al año siguiente una coalición árabe encabezada por los saudíes intervino sin conseguir doblegarles. La tregua de 2022 congeló los frentes pero nadie se desarmó. Hace dos meses los saudíes bombardearon el aeropuerto de Saná para evitar que llegasen material y refuerzos desde Irán, pero los hutíes no se quedaron con los brazos cruzados, respondieron con un bloqueo marítimo, misiles sobre ciudades saudíes y, por último, esta ofensiva relámpago que les ha permitido adueñarse del estrecho. La coalición antihutí es un mosaico de integristas islámicos, separatistas del sur del país y milicias tribales, un mosaico muy dividido desde que los saudíes forzaron la retirada emiratí en diciembre. Muchos han huido, los mandos se acusaron mutuamente de traición y algunos combatientes han llegado a vender sus armas. A eso se suma que los hutíes, dueños de la red de telefonía móvil del país, interceptan las comunicaciones enemigas y pueden dirigirse directamente a sus adversario para pedirles que se rindan. Estados Unidos ha enviado inteligencia y asesores, pero Trump ha negado a Mohamed bin Salmán los ataques aéreos que le ha pedido. Pesa el precedente de la campaña fallida del año pasado, también lo hace las menguantes existencias de munición guiada y la necesidad de mantener dos grupos de portaaviones frente a Irán para sostener el bloqueo. El Acuerdo de Defensa Conjunta de La Meca, firmado en agosto con Turquía y Pakistán, se encuentra ante su primera prueba de fuego, pero se concibió para disuadir a Estados, no a milicias informales. El problema es de primera categoría porque mientras los hutíes controlen a su antojo el estrecho de Bab el-mandeb la exportación de petróleo se resentirá, de hecho ya ha empezado a hacerlo. El crudo ha escalado colocándose por encima de los 100 dólares y los navieros ya están buscando rutas alternativas. Un drama añadido a las puertas del invierno que puede complicar aún más las cosas en Estados Unidos y en Europa.

L’apertura dei giornali, con le notizie e le voci dei protagonisti, tutto in meno di 30 minuti.In Yemen continua l'avanza degli Houthi che la scorsa settimana hanno preso la città di Mocha e voglio arrivare al controllo dello stretto di Bab el Mandeb, un'importante alternativa a quello di Hormuz per il commercio mondiale, per questo motivo hanno anche aumentato gli attacchi contro l'Arabia Saudita. Chi sono sono e cosa vogliono gli Houthi? Lo chiediamo a Laura Silvia Battaglia, giornalista esperta di Yemen.
De regeringsleiders van Schotland, Wales en Noord-Ierland komen vandaag bij elkaar om plannen te bespreken hoe te breken met het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Daarmee is de onafhankelijkheidsdiscussie weer in full swing. Hoe kansrijk is deze nieuwe poging om zelfstandigheid te bereiken? En in hoeverre heeft premier Andy Burnham dit vuurtje zelf aangewakkerd? Daarover correspondent Anne Saenen vanuit Londen. (07:16) Dreigende blokkade Rode Zee De Houthi's namen de westkust van Jemen in en kondigden een blokkade af tegen Saoedische scheepvaart bij Bab el-Mandeb, de nauwe doorgang door de Rode Zee, waar een groot deel van de wereldhandel doorheen vervoerd wordt. Maar niet alleen de Houthi's zorgen voor dreiging: er is ook een opvallende opleving van piraterij die de doorgang naar de Rode Zee in gevaar brengt. Toeval, of hangt dit samen? Hierover arabist Leo Kwarten en Mirjam van Reisen, expert op het gebied van de Hoorn van Afrika. Presentatie: Sophie Derkzen
Por Bab el‑Mandeb pasa cerca del 12% del petróleo transportado por mar en el mundo. Con Ormuz bajo presión por la guerra, cualquier alteración de esta ruta tendría un fuerte impacto global.
MONEY FM 89.3 - Prime Time with Howie Lim, Bernard Lim & Finance Presenter JP Ong
Oil prices have surged back above US$100 a barrel as attacks disrupt key energy and shipping routes across the Middle East. A drone strike has shut down part of Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline, threatening a route that can move Saudi crude without passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, vessels have come under attack in the Strait of Hormuz, with tensions also rising around the Bab el-Mandeb, two critical chokepoints for global energy shipments. So how serious is the threat to global oil supplies? And if higher oil and shipping costs persist, how could this ripple through to Singapore? On The Big Story, Hongbin Jeong speaks with Mukesh Sahdev, Founder and CEO of XAnalysts, to find out more. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nadaljujejo se spopadi v Hormuški ožini, ki je tako že pol leta skorajda povsem zaprta. Zdaj so Hutijevci, ki jih podpira Iran zaprli še Bab al Mandeb, torej vrata v Rdeče morje. S tem pa je zaprta tudi pot skozi Sueški prekop. Kaj to pomeni? Dober mesec je še do izraelskih parlamentarnih volitev, potekale bodo 17. oktobra. Kako kaže Netanjahuju in kako opoziciji? Stopnjuje se nasilje na Zahodnem bregu, skrajni judovski naseljenci napadajo Palestince. Velika Britanija in še 11 držav se je odzvalo s sankcijami. prepovedjo uvoza dobrin pridelanih, proizvedenih v spornih naselbinah. Bo to zaleglo?

Que se joue-t-il au Yémen ? Au terme d'une offensive éclair, les rebelles houthis – qui contrôlent de facto une grande partie du pays depuis une dizaine d'années – se sont emparés du détroit de Bab el-Mandeb, point de passage hautement stratégique au Moyen-Orient. L'Arabie saoudite, l'ennemie jurée, est mise en échec. Comment expliquer la résilience militaire de ce groupe rebelle allié de l'Iran ? Comment les Houthis sont-ils parvenus à s'imposer comme un acteur majeur de la région ?

Yesterday, Trump's midterm convention had its second night, The audience was sparse, but Trump got the loyalty he demanded from the crowd that showed up, He promised, again, to pay all adult US citizens $5,000 if the Republicans hold control of the House and the Senate, Meanwhile, along with the Strait of Hormuz being under the control of Iranian forces, Iran backed Houthi militants expanded their control of the area around the Bab el-Mandeb strait which has become an alternative route for Saudi Arabian oil to be shipped to the west, Although the Houthis do not control both sides of the strait, they threaten shipping through the passage, Iran appears to be retaliating for Trump's threats to strangle the Iranian economy by further slowing the transport, Today is the 25th anniversary of 9/11, Trump did not attend the commemoration at Ground Zero, but delivered a speech at the Pentagon, tying the war on Iran to the attacks of 9/11, All four former presidents and first ladies attended the ceremony, As a famous issue of The Amazing Spider-Man, published in November, 2001, explained, the heroes of 9/11 were ordinary people, who were made extraordinary “by acts of compassion, and courage, and terrible sacrifice."Watch today's recording here: https://www.youtube.com/live/g9TUa1Rwd6U?si=T8_KKcHQZElhpnZ-Get full, free access to Letters from an American here: https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribeYou can also find me:Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/hcrichardson.bsky.socialInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/heathercoxrichardson/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/heathercoxrichardson/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@heathercoxrichardson Get full access to Letters from an American at heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/subscribe
Silicon Bites Ep398 | 2026-09-12 | Prepare for an oil shock, and economic reverberations. We are living in a bubble of stability that is going to be shaken to its core, but a sequence of events triggered by Trump's war against Iran, and of course it is likely linked to Putin's attempts to erase Ukraine since 2022. Let's unpack this story that is being dramatically under reported in the world's media. Saudi Arabia's escape route from the Straits of Hormuz is burning, the Houthis have taken Bab al-Mandeb, and the tactical genius in the White House has just handed Vladimir Putin a chunk of his war budget back, through a spike in world oil prices.

For review:1. Using 1,100 tons of explosives, the Israeli military said on Thursday that it had demolished a “strategic” underground facility belonging to the Hezbollah terror group beneath a mountainous ridge in southern Lebanon.2. An airstrike late Thursday in the southern Gaza Strip killed the commander of Hamas's Khan Younis Brigade, the Israeli military and the terror group said on Friday morning.3.

Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com Doug speaking at New Orleans Investment Conference: https://neworleansconference.com/casey-2/ Doug and Matt reflect on the 25th anniversary of 9/11, arguing the official narrative remains unconvincing, citing unresolved issues like Building 7 and the lack of thorough investigation, and linking this to widespread public distrust in government. They discuss escalating Middle East conflict, including Houthi territorial gains in Yemen, threats to shipping near Bab-el-Mandeb, attacks on Saudi infrastructure, and U.S. strikes on Iranian-linked tankers, while noting oil prices and market fragility amid potential rate hikes; Doug discloses he has shorted Nasdaq. They compare alleged state cover-ups to the Charlie Kirk assassination and other disputed events, then address viewer questions on AI-driven job losses, potential debt defaults, protecting oneself via assets and residency abroad, central bank gold moves (including Argentina shipping gold to London), meetups and conferences, precious-metal storage jurisdictions, and Doug's negative view of Nike as an investment. 00:00 9/11 Anniversary Reflections 02:08 Doubting the Official Story 03:35 Building 7 and Media Oddities 07:45 Middle East Escalation and Oil 12:43 Charlie Kirk Conspiracy Questions 15:34 Trust Collapse and State Power 18:20 Trump 5K Proposal Fallout 23:08 Renaming Hormuz and Narcissism 25:27 AI Job Losses Market Impact 27:27 UBI via Tax Credits 28:57 Bribing Voters Warning 30:19 Default Fallout Prep 31:36 Hard vs Soft Default 33:28 Escape Political Risk 34:05 Central Banks Move Gold 35:53 DC Meetups and Events 39:13 Uruguay Free Zone Idea 40:06 Argentina Gold to London 44:25 Where to Store Metals 46:42 Nike Stock and Woke Brands 50:21 Weekend Sign Off

« Certains moments restent à jamais gravés dans la mémoire collective » et « un quart de siècle plus tard, des souvenirs surgissent et ressurgissent dans l'Hudson », le fleuve qui traverse la métropole américaine, frappée le 11 septembre 2001, par le plus grave attentat de l'histoire des États-Unis, se remémore un journaliste du New York Times. « Vingt-cinq ans plus tard, des souvenirs fugaces et des images indélébiles hantent encore ceux qui ont vécu les attentats et leurs conséquences. » Au milieu des souvenirs de la catastrophe, une question, à la une du journal : « Le 11-Septembre a-t-il vraiment tout changé ? » s'interroge le quotidien, se rappelant « l'image caricaturale du monde d'avant le 11-Septembre : un monde de soleil et de tranquillité, où personne ne se rend compte de sa chance et du désastre qui l'attend ». « Notre réalité actuelle découle bien trop des attentats [...] pour que quiconque puisse nier leur importance historique », poursuit le journal, citant « l'omniprésence des technologies de surveillance, le caractère flou et incertain des opérations militaires américaines, et la généralisation des mesures de sécurité dans la vie quotidienne. » « Au final, les États-Unis n'ont acquis ni conscience de soi ni épanouissement personnel, constate amèrement le New York Times. Ce qu'ils ont obtenu, quinze ans plus tard, c'est Donald Trump dont le parcours de star de télé-réalité à président a été marqué par la fièvre islamophobe de la droite post-11-Septembre. » Un constat loin d'être partagé par l'ensemble de la presse outre-Altantique « Malgré les affirmations contraires de certains, les États-Unis n'ont pas sacrifié leurs libertés pour renforcer leur sécurité », objecte le Washington Post, qui tient à saluer « le fait que les Américains n'aient pas blâmé les musulmans ou les Arabes dans leur ensemble ». « Plutôt que de ressasser le passé », le quotidien juge plutôt qu'« il est essentiel de se demander si le pays a la force et les moyens de prévenir la prochaine attaque. Cela implique de reconnaître que le territoire américain n'est plus un refuge géographique. » « Nos adversaires peuvent mener des cyberattaques et ils le font, s'alerte le journal. Ils peuvent mettre en péril nos satellites, nos centrales électriques et nos réserves d'eau. » « Nous devons investir, même imparfaitement, dans la défense contre les missiles, les armes biologiques et désormais les agents d'intelligence artificielle », plaide le Washington Post, avant de conclure qu'« il est essentiel de rendre hommage aux pompiers, aux policiers et à tous ceux qui ont donné leur vie le 11-Septembre. Mais il faut aussi honorer les morts en se souvenant de l'horreur de cette journée et en prenant la résolution de faire le nécessaire pour que cela ne se reproduise plus ». Les Houthis s'emparent de la ville yéménite de Mokha, port stratégique de la mer Rouge C'est « une victoire majeure » pour les rebelles soutenus par l'Iran qui sont à présent « en position de force pour attaquer les navires dans une voie navigable cruciale pour le commerce mondial », estime le New York Times. Cette prise devrait leur permettre de « renforcer leur contrôle » sur la mer Rouge et d'« accentuer les tensions sur les marchés de l'énergie », sans oublier que la milice chiite progresse donc vers le détroit clef de Bab el-Mandeb, a affirmé une source gouvernementale yéménite. Car, on le sait, « ce passage reliant l'Asie à l'Europe via la mer Rouge et le canal de Suez a gagné en importance depuis le début de la guerre au Moyen-Orient avec le verrouillage par l'Iran du détroit d'Ormuz, de l'autre côté de la péninsule arabique », rappelle l'Orient-le-Jour. Pour le Guardian, la prise de contrôle du littoral de la mer Rouge par les Houthis « constituerait un désastre stratégique pour l'Arabie saoudite et les États-Unis ». Une menace aussi pour le Yémen qui. « après des années d'accalmie, [...] a replongé dans la guerre en juillet, rappelle l'Orient-le-Jour, et les affrontements depuis la semaine dernière ont jeté sur les routes près de 20 000 personnes ». Le pays « n'est plus seulement un théâtre de guerre local mais une menace stratégique capable d'influencer l'ensemble de l'équilibre de la région », analyse le journal israélien Haaretz avant de prévenir que « toute nouvelle escalade au Yémen, a fortiori si elle débouche sur une guerre terrestre de grande ampleur et implique d'autres acteurs, pourrait rapidement dépasser les limites du conflit local et devenir l'étincelle d'un nouveau conflit régional ».
US equities were lower in Thursday trading, ending a bit off worst levels. The market was on the defensive against continued strength in crude and a notable jump in Treasury yields. WTI is crude now up for the eighth consecutive session (and up ~20% over that stretch) with a focus on Mideast headlines, particularly regarding Houthi influence over Bab el-Mandeb strait.

September 10, 2026 - Oil ripped nearly 7% today, WTI pressing $103 and Brent hitting $108, on news that Saudi output has fallen to a 36-year low and Houthi forces have seized a coastal city and multiple Red Sea islands near the Bab-el-Mandeb strait — putting them in position to threaten shipping through it more easily than at any point in this conflict. Zach and Chase break down why almost nobody has noticed that an oil-sector position has quietly outperformed semiconductors this year, even as AI dominates every headline — and why that stat stopped being a curiosity today: mortgages crossed 7%, diesel crossed $6 a gallon nationwide, and the 10-year Treasury just posted its highest weekly close since 2007. They also unpack why Trump's own jawboning about oil prices is losing its power to move markets, and make the case for why continuing the current course may now be more politically costly than cutting losses. Plus: the $5,000 stimulus-check promise, and why Chase thinks it costs more than it helps.Schedule your complimentary Know Your Risk Portfolio Review at KnowYourRiskRadio.com
** VIDEO EN NUESTRO CANAL DE YOUTUBE **** https://youtube.com/live/iIyVn7MoMuY +++++ Hazte con nuestras camisetas en https://www.bhmshop.app +++++ La guerra de Yemen vuelve a moverse. Tras una ofensiva hutí sobre varios sectores del frente occidental, las fuerzas alineadas con el Gobierno yemení han respondido con un contraataque que ha permitido recuperar posiciones y frenar el avance hutí. Con Mariano López de Miguel analizamos qué ha ocurrido sobre el terreno entre Hodeida, Hays y Taiz, por qué ha fracasado la ofensiva hutí y, sobre todo, si las fuerzas gubernamentales tienen capacidad para explotar ahora el éxito y modificar un frente que llevaba años relativamente estabilizado. El control anunciado de Hays y los combates en el oeste de Taiz vuelven a poner el foco sobre uno de los corredores estratégicos más importantes de Yemen. No se trata únicamente de controlar territorio: detrás se encuentran Moca, la costa del mar Rojo y Bab el-Mandeb, una de las principales arterias del comercio marítimo mundial. Analizaremos el mapa operacional de la batalla: qué pretendían conseguir los hutíes, dónde fue detenido su ataque, las direcciones del contraataque gubernamental y hasta dónde podrían avanzar sus fuerzas sin exponerse a una peligrosa sobreextensión. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "UN MUNDO CONVULSO. CLAVES GEOPOLÍTICAS", el nuevo libro de Francisco García Campa. https://amzn.to/4eZuUG0 o firmado y dedicado en https://franciscogarciacampa.com/libros/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- También estudiaremos el estado actual de los hutíes (Ansar Allah) después de años de guerra. Un revés terrestre no elimina su capacidad de emplear drones, misiles balísticos y armas antibuque, ni su capacidad para amenazar la navegación del mar Rojo. Yemen tampoco puede entenderse aisladamente. Irán, Arabia Saudí, Emiratos Árabes Unidos, Estados Unidos e Israel forman parte de un tablero regional en el que Bab el-Mandeb adquiere una importancia extraordinaria. La gran cuestión es si estamos viendo simplemente una batalla más o los primeros síntomas de una nueva fase de la guerra yemení. En el programa analizaremos la ofensiva hutí y las causas de su fracaso; el contraataque de las fuerzas gubernamentales; la importancia de Hays, Taiz, Hodeida y Moca; la posibilidad de nuevos avances hacia territorio hutí; el papel de Arabia Saudí y Emiratos; la relación entre Irán y Ansar Allah; y las consecuencias para Bab el-Mandeb, el mar Rojo y las rutas marítimas internacionales. ¿Es un simple revés táctico para los hutíes o estamos ante un cambio en el equilibrio militar de Yemen?

Lara Krinsky opens the briefing by saying the war has not ended but shifted, with the U.S. striking Iran again, Iran retaliating, sanctions tightening around Tehran, and Hezbollah adapting into smaller guerrilla formations. Jonathan Schanzer says the U.S. is now enforcing a tougher economic campaign against Iran, targeting places where sanctions were previously under-enforced, while Tehran responds with attacks across the Gulf and Jordan. He argues that Iran's proxies are weakening on multiple fronts: Hamas through the Gaza “Board of Peace” plan, Hezbollah through Israel-Lebanon diplomacy backed by Israeli military pressure, and Shiite militias in Iraq through political negotiations. Schanzer also warns that the Houthis remain one of the most dangerous unresolved threats, especially because of their ballistic missiles, ability to threaten the Bab el-Mandeb, and emerging ties with al-Shabab. A major focus is the new Saudi-Turkish-Pakistani “Mecca Defense Agreement,” which Schanzer sees not only as a response to Iran but as a potentially dangerous alternative alliance structure that could undermine the Abraham Accords-aligned regional vision. The briefing closes with Schanzer saying Israel and the U.S. have made real strategic gains against Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas, but Lara emphasizes that every enemy is trying to adapt and rebuild, leaving IDF soldiers and reservists to carry the burden nearly three years into the war.

Yon says the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed and argues conflicts are interconnected, predicting flashpoints including the Falklands/Malvinas involving Argentina, possible spillover into Brazil and Uruguay, and wider fighting affecting Europe and the North Sea. He emphasizes hydraulic warfare, describing how dams on the Nile (GERD in Ethiopia), Euphrates (Atatürk Dam), Tigris (Mosul Dam), and China's Three Gorges could be used for famine and destruction. He also discusses Tibet/Nepal flood events, chokepoints like Suez, Gibraltar/Ceuta, Bab-el-Mandeb, Panama, and Malacca, plus language, migration, intoxicants, music, demographic, and economic warfare. 00:00 Morning Intro in Japan 00:32 Baby Due Soon 01:38 Kiri Tree Tradition 04:16 Hormuz and Global War 05:48 South Atlantic Flashpoints 08:15 Nepal Disaster and Tibet 13:24 Hydraulic Warfare Explained 15:13 Egypt and the Nile Dams 29:45 Turkey Iraq and China Dams 34:28 Prayer Wheel Spycraft 36:35 Local Flood Risks and Drought 38:53 Ceuta Flashpoint 39:32 Gibraltar Chokepoint History 41:16 Phosphate Power Politics 41:43 Global Chokepoints Strategy 45:05 Florida And Brazil Predictions 48:22 Ceuta Migrants As Weapon 51:32 Language Warfare Morocco 56:27 Books Burned And Forecasts 59:17 Safe Havens And Zionism 01:02:49 Cults And Empire Origins 01:05:51 Warfare Taxonomy Explained 01:12:36 Corporate Superstructure Wrap 01:15:01 Closing Thanks And Anecdote
Edmund Fitton-Brown argues that the U.S. is "running out of ideas" regarding economic pressure on Iran, labeling a land blockade as far-fetched due to uncooperative neighbors. He suggests that secondary sanctions on Chinese "teapot" refineries are a more practical tool. Regarding Yemen, Fitton-Brown observes that the Houthis have become emboldened by U.S. irresolution and are pushing south to capture the Bab el-Mandeb. He expresses cautious optimism regarding Jared Kushner's diplomatic delegation, noting that experienced figures like Tony Blair are unlikely to be "dupes" for Hamas during negotiations. (5)
TABLE OF CONTENTS, THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, 8-17-2026.Bill Roggio reflects on the five-year anniversary of the 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal, highlighting the accuracy of the maps he built that predicted the Taliban's takeover. He describes the withdrawal as disorganized, noting there was zero plan for the Afghan government or military equipment. Roggio specifically criticizes the abandonment of Bagram Air Base, which he believes was the superior evacuation site. He also addresses current Middle East policy, dismissing proposed land blockades against Iran as "fanciful" and impractical. He warns that current strategic failures mirror the indifference seen in Afghanistan. (1)Bridget Toomey analyzes the reawakening of the Yemeni Civil War, noting that the Houthis are launching fresh offensives to seize the Red Sea coast and the Bab el-Mandeb choke point. While the Houthis claim to target Saudiinterests, their primary focus has shifted to defeating government-backed ground troops. Toomey highlights the extensive use of drone technology by both sides, with the Houthis demonstrating sophisticated capabilities while the Yemeni government adopts modified Chinese systems. She notes that Saudi Arabia remains hesitant to fully re-initiate a large-scale military intervention despite continued Houthi aggression. (2)Janatyn Sayeh explores the "secret plan" of Iranian hardliners to escalate regional conflict and raise costs for the United States. He notes that while the Iranian economy is an existential vulnerability, the regime is willing to ride out sanctions to maintain its Islamist agenda. Sayeh critiques the viability of a U.S. land blockade, citing the difficulty of gaining cooperation from neighbors like Afghanistan and Pakistan. He argues that power is concentrated within the IRGCsecurity establishment rather than just the Supreme Leader, and that internal rifts are secondary to the elite's collective survival. (3)Malcolm Hoenlein provides an overview of the October 27th Israeli election, explaining the complex "list" voting system and Netanyahu's challenges. He discusses the "Board of Peace" negotiations, stressing that the central hurdle remains Hamas's refusal to disarm before Israeli withdrawal. Hoenlein also touches on regional tensions, including Hezbollah's rearming and internal unrest in Iran fueled by economic desperation. Finally, he notes Turkey's significant lobbying efforts in Washington through a new headquarters and a "glorious new front" of diplomatic normalization between Israel and several South American nations including Colombia. (4)Edmund Fitton-Brown argues that the U.S. is "running out of ideas" regarding economic pressure on Iran, labeling a land blockade as far-fetched due to uncooperative neighbors. He suggests that secondary sanctions on Chinese "teapot" refineries are a more practical tool. Regarding Yemen, Fitton-Brown observes that the Houthis have become emboldened by U.S. irresolution and are pushing south to capture the Bab el-Mandeb. He expresses cautious optimism regarding Jared Kushner's diplomatic delegation, noting that experienced figures like Tony Blair are unlikely to be "dupes" for Hamas during negotiations. (5)John Hardie reports on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, specifically Russia's rejection of a Black Sea ceasefire in favor of striking Ukrainian food supplies. He notes that while Russia maintains a maritime blockade advantage, Ukraine is retaliating with high-precision long-range drone strikes against Russian oil refineries and defense plants. Hardie suggests that the Kremlin may be receptive to a moratorium on deep-strike operations because their own infrastructure is increasingly vulnerable. He concludes that Ukraine currently holds a tactical edge in drone technology, aided by Western intelligence to bypass Russian air defenses. (6)David Daoud details the escalating tensions between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, noting that Hezbollah's refusal to disarm has prompted the IDF to prepare for a major operation. Israel is currently conducting "clearing operations" to destroy Hezbollah installations near the Al-Aishiyeh Ridge. Daoud highlights the recent deaths of senior commanders from the elite Radwan and Badr units, which indicates that Hezbollah's operational security remains compromised. Despite these losses, Hezbollah is working with Iran to rebuild its command structure and has attempted to smuggle advanced weaponry, including cruise missiles, into Lebanon. (7)Kamran Bokhari examines the evolution of the Iranian regime, arguing that the Supreme Leader has become a figurehead for the IRGC and security establishment. He suggests that the war has accelerated a process of internal fragmentation, though the elite remains united by a shared fear of collapse. While public uprisings have gone "underground," the regime continues to conduct mass arrests to prevent a critical mass of resistance. Bokhari describes a "post-clergy" era where the military dominates political life, noting that the regime has evolved into a different entity than it was decades ago. (8)Alan Tonelson exposes a massive Chinese tariff evasion scheme, where goods are rerouted through countries like Cambodia and Mexico to bypass U.S. duties. This "scam" is estimated to cost the U.S. up to $26 billion in annual revenue. While the White House is developing AI-based systems to strengthen customs enforcement, there is criticism regarding the lack of direct penalties against Beijing. Tonelson notes that 40 countries are currently complicit in these practices, harming the U.S. manufacturing base. He predicts only modest changes to these trade dynamics through the remainder of the current administration. (9)Samuel Ben-Ur discusses the ongoing conflict with Hamas in Gaza, focusing on Jared Kushner's meeting with Hamas leadership to discuss a 15-point peace plan. Ben-Ur explains that Israel rejected the plan because it lacked a verifiable mechanism for Hamas's disarmament before Israeli withdrawal. He dismisses reports of famine in Gaza as propaganda, noting that international bodies currently view aid levels as acceptable. The conversation emphasizes that Hamas remains committed to the destruction of Israel, making voluntary disarmament a "fiction," while Israeli politics remain divided over the war's prosecution. (10)Richard Epstein critiques Senator Bernie Sanders' characterization of Israeli politicians as "extremists," viewing it as a provocative attempt to shift American Democratic policy. Epstein argues that a two-state solution is fundamentally unstable because an autonomous Palestinian region cannot be prevented from remilitarizing. He contends that proponents of this solution often act in bad faith, ignoring Hamas's history of violated ceasefires. Furthermore, Epstein describes the Democratic Socialists of America as isolationists who focus disproportionately on Israel while ignoring other global aggressors like Vladimir Putin in Ukraine. (11)Jeremy Zakis reports on the looming weather crisis in Australia, where meteorologists predict a "super El Niño" combined with a positive Indian Ocean Dipole. This rare combination is expected to cause extreme drought and record-breaking temperatures in New South Wales and Victoria. Zakis warns that a wet winter has fueled rampant eucalyptus growth, creating a massive volume of flammable oils. These conditions have "primed" the landscape for catastrophic wildfires. Residents are being urged to clear undergrowth immediately, as the upcoming fire season could surpass the severity of the devastating 2020–2021 bushfires. (12)One small fix beyond the log: Badr unit (source had "Bader," segment 7) — the standard rendering of Hezbollah's Badr unit. Janatyn Sayeh applied per your confirmed spelling.

Edmund Fitton-Brown: The Houthis have launched a blockade against Saudi shipping in the Red Sea, targeting energy routes critical to global markets. In response, Saudi Arabia has formed a fourteen-nation defense coalition to protect the Bab el-Mandeb, notably excluding the UAE and Oman. While the Houthis maintain some autonomy, they are heavily dependent on Iranian technical assistance and resupply. Iran has used regional pauses to restock its arsenal and now threatens Saudi infrastructure, including desalination plants and pipelines. Experts believe the US remains the elephant in the room, but a lack of consistent policy from Washington emboldens the Houthis to continue their aggressive psychological warfare. (7)1962 YEMEN
