Filling the vacuum in a post-American world

Post-Americans - diplomatic, military, and business-related - may have felt compelled to skedaddle Yemen, but post-America's mortal enemy feels that it's being welcomed with open arms:

An Iranian ship unloaded 185 tons of weapons and military equipment at a Houthi-controlled al-Saleef port in Yemen, al Arabiya reports.

The Houthi militias reportedly closed the port and denied entrance to employees there. Al-Saleef port is considered the second most vital in Yemen.

The news follows last week’s economic partnership agreements between Iran and the Houthis, including a deal that promises a year’s worth of oil supply from Iran.

Iran has also agreed to provide Yemen with a 200 megawatt power plant, according to Yemeni news agency Saba.

But mention of this kind of development is off-limits at the patty-cake session over the nuke program
