he doesn't understand what he's talking about one of these politicians who has a team of morons and ideologues writing talking points for him and he delivers the lines pretty well but he doesn't know what he's saying and he's talking just a lot of crap a lot of incoherent crap that he was speaking about.

But if you look on the edges of this conflict, it continues to just swell and it continues to get more and more dangerous.

You can see the difference in the damage that is caused, uh, and that is something that we should be watching very carefully.

This could be very, very, very hurtful to the global economy.

Commercial aviation across Saudi Arabia is facing severe operational paralysis today, as we were just discussing, uh, with Borzou, as escalating Houthi missile and drone strikes trigger widespread airspace closures, ground stops, and mass flight diversions, viewers.

Now, flight tracking services, including, uh, FlightRadar24, confirm that inbound traffic to Jeddah's King Abdulaziz International Airport is being placed in extended holding patterns for, uh, di- or diverted with, uh, no incoming aircraft touching down for roughly ninety minutes while Jeddah technically remains open.

And it's such a pleasure to have you, Sina, to explain a lot of it for us.

Thank you for having me, Borzoi.

It's

good to be with you.

And we discuss that, and they have some interesting answers about that.

Sven Otto Littoren.

And I'm just so baffled by these incidents, and they stink to high heaven to me, and I wanted to just talk a little bit about them in this episode of Badlands.

Someone, a friend of mine, was saying that he was amazed that I do this every day, that I put out a podcast every day, and I was explaining to him that it's not that much work.

But does that constitute terrorism if your target is a military target? Is every single targeting of a US military base or military facility, is it all terrorism? And everything that we do when we hit a wedding is just collateral damage, and then when the, a terrorist group or a [laughs] militant group or let's say it was the Iranians, which it probably wasn't, definitely wasn't [laughs], they bomb a military base, and that's terrorism? Really? Seriously? But a thing that was also kind of interesting I'll get to in a moment, I, I just wanted to introduce the show.
