If Iran is attacked the Shia in Iraq will attack American assets there,

Houthis in Yemen will attack tankers in the Gulf of Hormuz, Hezbollah in Lebanon will attack Israel. The area will explode. An Iranian expert on CBC Radio made those observations and said we are at a moment that looks dangerously similar to the start of the first World War.

Have been following this story for several days. As your post states,the real issue that started this was the Saudi's trying to Exterminate the Houties who they blame all their Social unrest upon.

As posted,the Iraqi's will wipe the Americans off the face of Iraq.
