Obama will likely remain silent hoping the issue goes away keeping his sham of a treaty in tact. If he does respond it will be with a tongue lashing and a red line.

Potentially accidental, no deaths.

Move on.


Accidentally bombed the wrong building? What was the intended target? Is Saudi and Yemen already at war and bombing each other???

The USA "accidentally" bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade.

Excuse at the time was "old maps."

It's more like Saudi Arabia is slaughtering Yemen. Tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran were already high before this.

Yemen government was overthrown in a civil war last year by the Houthis. They overthrew the government that was a friend to Saudi. Now, factions of nutballs (many supported by Iran) are all over Yemen and that is a threat to Saudi. If the Hadi government were to be restored and the crazies driven out, then it would go back to being like it was before.

Too bad, too sad. Sell both side weapons and throw the popcorn in the micro wave.

You should really read the article.

Damaged the building. Not quite a "bombing."

This thread has unintentionally mislead a lot of posters

According to Ansari, the Iranian Embassy in the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, was damaged and several guards were injured in the late Wednesday airstrike.

Even with little damage it was still bombed. I wasn't aware of Saudi-Yemeni war. It appears The Saudis are actually at war with a faction within that country. It's a complex situation over there.

The Muslims fighting each other may be the only Israel is still in existence.

Does this pretty much sum it up:

Saudis execute Shiite cleric.
Iran sets Saudi embassy on fire.
Saudis bomb Iranian embassy in Yemen.

Well, much of it has been independent for less than 80 years.

Shouldn't he condemn this at the very least?

Close. There's a few things that happened over the last few thousand years, but sure, we'll go with your summation.
