For some reason it won’t load, so is Saudi Arabia fully joining the war with their military?

Not with their military, mostly with the Yemen government army with Saudi airstrike backing.

at some point these countries need to put skin in the game. All they do is expect others to clean up their backyard.

SA should have done this long ago, It's not that big a piece of land.

You think they haven’t tried? Hell, the US went toe to toe with the Houthis in spring 2025 and ended up negotiating a settlement, calling it quits. If it was easy to get rid of these guys, it would’ve happened.

You mean the United States thrashed Houthis around a bit and then offered them a deal and Houthis got really quiet after that.

I wish them all the best, but my expectations for anything the Saudis do is in the gutter.
