In this segment: Chadwick discusses Saudi Arabia's repeated failures to defeat the Houthi rebels in Yemen, highlighting the Houthis' resilience and control over strategic waterways like the Red Sea. He explains that the fight over oil pipelines bypassing Iran is critical, leaving prosperous Gulf states in a vulnerable position.
So, as we look around the Middle East, a couple of things. Saudi Arabia, for some reason or another, bombed Yemen. Let me show you guys where that is. So they bombed Sana. This is where the Houthis are. So they bombed the civilian airport there, which I think was a stupid mistake by Saudi Arabia. And again, I'm not for the Houthi rebels. I'm just giving you facts. Saudi Arabia has been trying to get rid of the Houthi rebels for about 10 years. Even going back to Obama, through Biden, and even Trump, they've been trying to get rid of the Houthis. And every single time, the Saudi Arabians have been slapped back to rehab. And they will get slapped back again if they try to mess with the Houthi rebels. People don't understand that Saudi Arabia, I think, and don't quote me on this, I'm just giving you an approximate. I think they have like 40 million people in Saudi Arabia. I know it looks like a large country, but it's mostly desert. So they've got about 40 million people. Well, Yemen has 40 million people, if you want to just do population by population. And these people are more hardcore than the Arabians are. The Arabians are sitting over there in luxury right now. And the Yemenis are not. The Yemenis are not. So they're a little bit more hardcore and war-drone than the Saudi Arabians. And MBS sitting over there in his robe with his flip-flops on in Riyadh. These people will turn your lights out, and they will to Saudi Arabia as well. And that's why they don't mess with him. So that's why I find it interesting that Saudi Arabia bombed Yemen's airport, because look what Yemen could do. Look what the Houthis could do. I call it the Houthi Strait. It's the Augman Doab Strait, but it's called, in my mind, the Houthi Strait. The Houthi Strait is right here, right there. Look how narrow that is. So I don't know why Saudi Arabia would bomb them when they could close the Red Sea Strait. Now you've got this closed as well with the Hormuz Strait, and you've got yourself a global energy crisis. And if they could, I think they'll have an impact on the Suez Canal as well because of their missile program from Iran. So again, I'm not sure why Saudi Arabia made a stupid mistake like that. The UAE, they've tried to mess with the Houthis, and they got slapped back to Dubai. So again, I don't think anybody wants a piece of the Houthi rebels until somebody beats these guys. Again, I'm not for them. I'm just saying until somebody beats these people, they've got a lot to say in this. They have not entered this second round of the war, which I find very interesting. So if they, that's why I can't believe Saudi Arabia bombed these people, because that's just to provoke these people to get involved. And they said that it hasn't been the time to do that yet. So I'm just trying to tell everybody, if they want a holy war, American Israel, you will get it, from the Islamists. That's biblically. That's prophetically. They will not win this. Yeshua will win this only. And that's just the bottom line. And for six months, I've said the same exact thing, and I'll say it for another six months until the American government wakes up, understands that you're just going to go bankrupt printing money or borrowing money and $40 trillion in debt, and you think you can go win wars. I mean, that is, that's not even common sense, much less. That's how far off we are in America. We are way off in our pride and our egos in America. And that balloon is about to be popped so that we can get to reality here. I mean, I don't know who we think we are to think we can go across the Middle East and try to ruin everybody's life and control the Middle East. How has that gone? You have zero victories. You got $40 trillion in debt. You know, you don't have munitions to go fight these wars anymore. Anyhow, and I'll talk about that in a minute. But my friends, this is serious stuff because again, these people have suffered. They don't mind suffering. And from what I've researched, they look at it like this now. If they suffer, the world suffers. If everybody wants, if America wants to leave these people alone, they'll be good. But if you want to make them suffer, the world will suffer. And they've got the nuclear weapon, not the bomb, the Hormuz Strait. They've got another nuclear weapon called the Houthis down at the Red Sea, down at the Houthi Strait. So again, the US Navy tried to go down to, remember that about a couple years ago, go down to Trump's first couple months, go down there with the US Navy trying to bomb the Houthi out. How'd that work out? The US Navy came back. Not the Houthis. And the Houthis kept shooting missiles at Israel. Guys, you just got to look at the facts here. This is laughable stuff that everybody thinks that we can do these things. And I'm telling you, you cannot do these things. You will not do these things. You can't beat Hamas. You can't beat Hezbollah. You can't beat Iran. You can't beat the Houthis. You can't beat Turkey. And you're not going to beat the beast kingdom. So again, Christians and Jews need to wake up and understand reality. Get out of their pride, their ego, their arrogance, and understand what the biblical Jewish prophets have said about what's going down. And what's going down will not be favorable to the United States or to Israel. These two countries are in judgment zone. And then Yeshua will deal with the Islamists. If we can understand that, we'll be better off as a group of believers instead of trusting these governments.
So, I just thought Saudi Arabia, that was the stupidest thing I've seen from Saudi Arabia for people who are very smart in business, you know, with the oil. That was stupid because if they want them to get engaged, they will. And they can cause disturbance into the Red Sea, which will only bring more suffering to the global economy with the energy crisis that we are seeing here. My friends, the Hormuz Strait could be the United States' Suez Canal. Do you understand that? It could be the Suez Canal of the British Empire. The British Empire was already done. In 1916-17 with World War I, they were already, the sun's already set on their empire, the one that said that it would never set. It did set, as they always do. And the sun's setting on our empire as well. Americans just don't want to receive that. Or due to things that would cause us not to fail called repentance. No homosexuality law. Quit killing babies. Quit acting like idiots with religion. Quit having idols. Quit doing all these things, and we'd see our country come back. Until that time, the go. So, we've got to really realize where we are. And people don't realize this because again, I just think it's American pride and American ego and all these things. And God loves America, and He will never destroy it. I mean, that's what Israel thought. He destroyed it twice and burned the temple down twice on the same day, by the way, in eight days from now, seven days from now. So we've got to understand what God is doing. And God will judge His people, everybody. And that is the Israelis, and that is the Jewish people, and also the American Christians who think everything's great. He will judge us because the household of God gets judged first. So my friends, I wanted to come with you with that. And we went through the oil pipelines like I'll show you guys on this map. There is a pipeline that, one of the reasons why you're seeing this going down, is there's a pipeline that Daniel was right in this area when he saw Daniel 8. There's an Iraqi port right there with pipelines going through Syria, Iraq, Syria to Turkey. And then there's another one as well bypassing the Iranians. So they are fighting for their lives over here because of the oil. Because if they're able to do that, then the Hormuz Strait becomes irrelevant. All right. So we've got to really understand that the people that are in the worst position right now, in my opinion, are these countries right here, these Islamists, these prosperity Islamists who never want to get their hands dirty. They're in terrible shape right now. UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain. Horrible shape right now. I doubt anybody wants to go to Dubai right now, do you? So, we'll see what happens with all of those things.
