Nasser Arrabyee returns to the show to update the Saudi-American war in Yemen, where the country has been split by factionalism. Scott then asks well, if there’s great factionalism, why not let the country split up? Arrabyee details the role the United Arab Emirates is playing in the conflict, the continuing blockade of the Port of Hodeidah, and the fight for control over Southern Yemen.
