The Yemen War: A Proxy War, or a Self-fulfilling Prophecy?

Contrary to appearances, however, this is not a proxy war waged by Iran, one that the great rival of Tehran—Saudi Arabia—must, for the sake of its own security interests, oppose. On the contrary, Riyadh is a major player in the conflict, pursuing its own imperial interests. But its strategy is unsuccessful, prolonging the conflict and resulting in the devastation of Yemen and a humanitarian disaster. This can boost the role of terrorist organisations on a scale comparable to what we are witnessing in Syria and Iraq, creating a real threat to international security.
