3. And they'll respond by attacking

some ship that has, or at one time had, or is suspected to have or have had, some connection to Israel. But really, they're just "if you're not with us, you're our enemy" thinking. Secular, Sunni, Xian, Jew.

The Jew-hate that led to the Yemeni airlift wasn't just a one-off. Persecutions have been attested for a thousand years. Now the number's down to 5 or less, mostly elderly.

It's estimated that Christians are something like 0.06% of the Yemeni population. Others put the number at 40k a decade back.--a number not that inconsistent.

Then somebody will almost certainly say they were provoked.
