[00:00:00] form of joint Arab action. It fought Arab
[00:00:03] nationalism and it was movement for liberation and independence,
[00:00:07] particularly during the era of Kamal Abd Nasir. Later it
[00:00:11] monopolized the ability to mobilize the Arab masses for armed
[00:00:15] struggle, whether in Afghanistan, Iraq or more recently in
[00:00:19] Syria. This policy implemented over
[00:00:23] of decades has led to the elimination of every rival, including those who
[00:00:27] could have posed the threat to
[00:00:28] of the regime's existence. As
[00:00:30] a result of this policy we can say that one
[00:00:32] of the factors contributing to the regime's stability is that there
[00:00:35] is currently no arb power
[00:00:39] capable of
[00:00:40] of challenging it or
[00:00:41] in attempting to overthrow it. Moreover, no
[00:00:44] of power is willing to overthrow it. Added to this and more
[00:00:48] importantly, is the fact that this regime has always enjoyed the
[00:00:52] protection of western powers. For example, when Britain was the
[00:00:56] dominant western power, King Abdul
[00:00:58] in Aziz before ascending to the...
[00:01:02] of
[00:01:08] later the US influence grew, the famous meeting between
[00:01:11] king and US
[00:01:16] of president
[00:01:16] took place aboard a ship in 1945. this meeting known as the
[00:01:20] quiny agreement or the quiny treaty included a
[00:01:24] commitment by the united states to protect the saudi
[00:01:27] regime. consequently, this regime elim its domestic
[00:01:31] rivals, contributed to the elimination of its rivals across the arab
[00:01:34] world, enjoys foreign protection and created
[00:01:38] or adopted
[00:01:39] a religious doctrine that prevents its overthrow,
[00:01:43] doctrine to maintain its power and doctrine to maintain its
[00:01:47] in power and religious sites within its territory, religious sites within
[00:01:51] its territory to consolidate its rule, it has
[00:01:55] always possessed enormous wealth which it uses to strengthen
[00:01:59] its whole on power, allocating a small portion to domestic
[00:02:03] spending and a substantial share to foreign countries,
[00:02:06] particularly western nations to secure their
[00:02:10] of protection. this means generating revenue from the territories it
[00:02:13] controls, particularly from oil as well as from other
[00:02:17] sources, a large portion of which has been and
[00:02:21] of continues to be transferred to the west. it also invests
[00:02:25] money in purchasing influence and media coverage, both in the
[00:02:28] west and in our. own countries while seeking to acquire economic
[00:02:32] leverage in Arab and Islamic nations and in countries
[00:02:36] close to the Arab and Islamic world. All of
[00:02:39] of this makes the overthrow
[00:02:40] of the
[00:02:40] in Saudi regime extremely
[00:02:43] of difficult. Nevertheless, despite all these factors, I raise a question in this
[00:02:47] episode: will Muhammad bin Salman fall,
[00:02:50] or will Muhammad bin Salman overthrow the Saudi
[00:02:54] of regime, or will the Saudi regime be the one to overthrow Muhammad bin Salman as
[00:02:58] a consequence of it.
[00:03:15] in
[00:03:22] in
[00:03:30] 2026 when Saudi war planes attacked an Iranian
[00:03:34] aircraft carrying a Yemeni delegation that had attended a funeral
[00:03:37] of Ayatullah Sad Ali Khamenei in Iran. The
[00:03:41] aircraft was heading to Sana international airport and Saudi
[00:03:44] warplanes intercepted, bomb the airport and prevented it from
[00:03:48] landing. The aircraft was forced to divert to Hudeda
[00:03:51] airport where it landed safely. For years, the
[00:03:55] Yemani political forces in Sanha and Yemen's legitimate government, the
[00:03:59] anser.
[00:04:00] of movement have been demanding that the Saudi regime lift the blockade on
[00:04:04] Yemen's northern provinces. The most notable
[00:04:07] of feature of this blockade is the prohibition on civilian
[00:04:11] aircraft operating freely at
[00:04:13] of SAS International Airport, both for departurs and
[00:04:16] arrivals. This situation is abnormal, if the
[00:04:20] Saudi
[00:04:20] of regime continues to deny the existence of this bloccade through
[00:04:24] its media outlets, despite the fact that it is
[00:04:27] undeniable. The blockade is... not limited to air
[00:04:31] transport, it also includes restrictions by land, sea and
[00:04:35] air as well as financial and economic
[00:04:38] blockade. As we
[00:04:39] of have of already mentioned,
[00:04:41] of Yemen has repeatedly demanded
[00:04:42] a that the Saudi regime lift the blockade. By 2026,
[00:04:46] warnings had been issued that the bloccade would be met with a blockade of its
[00:04:50] own, and that the Yemani people in the SanA government would not remain
[00:04:54] silent in the face of this crime, the blockade, but would confront
[00:04:58] it. In one of his speech.
[00:05:08] of
[00:05:13] in 2026, the Saudi led air strikes against
[00:05:16] airport became the spark that subsequently prompted the yemini armed
[00:05:20] forces to begin preparing and implementing a blockade for
[00:05:24] blockade strategy. in september 2026,
[00:05:28] the yemmeny armed forces loyal to the legitimate government in sana
[00:05:31] launched a military operation against forces
[00:05:35] backed by the saudi regime along Yemen's western coast and
[00:05:39] entire province. this operation was:
[00:05:42] seated by dozens of threats from Saudi backed forces in Yemen
[00:05:46] against the SanA government. These forces explicitly
[00:05:49] stated their intention to launch an offensive they call the complete
[00:05:53] liberation of Yemeni territory, including Sana, and
[00:05:57] to eliminate the Ansorula movement and the Sana
[00:06:01] government. For this reason, the Sana government considers
[00:06:04] the operation launched in September 2026 to have
[00:06:08] been in part a preemptive strike. Indeed, its forces. managed
[00:06:12] to liberate a significant stretch the western coastline, reaching
[00:06:16] bable mandeb, while also making substantial
[00:06:20] advances ties province. In doing so, they came
[00:06:24] close to driving all Saudi-backed forces and their allies out
[00:06:28] these areas. During this period, Saudi Arabia's
[00:06:32] direct military aggression against Yemen intensified. We
[00:06:36] began witnessing air strikes targeting the Sana region, Sana's airport
[00:06:40] and civilian targets in several. northern yemen
[00:06:43] provinces. Saudi Arabia even announced that approximately
[00:06:47] 100 fighter jets were participating in support of ground
[00:06:50] along Yemen's western coast, along Yemen's
[00:06:54] western coast under the pretext of liberating all
[00:06:57] territory controlled by yemeny forces loyal to the
[00:07:01] san government. Rashad al-ali, head of Yemen's
[00:07:05] presidential leadership council, or in practice, the president
[00:07:09] appointed by the Saudi regime, announced the launch of a battle. to
[00:07:12] liberate all Yemeni territory. Amit these
[00:07:16] operations, a significant development took place in late
[00:07:19] 2025. Saudi Arabia launched a major military
[00:07:23] operation in southern Yemen to expell the United Arab
[00:07:26] Emirates. The Saudi regime succeeded in driving Emirati forces
[00:07:30] out of Yemen, despite the fact that the UAE had been an ally the
[00:07:34] Saudi regime there. This development weaken the forces Muhammad bin
[00:07:38] Salman relies on in his wars in Yemen, including the current
[00:07:42] war that. began in September 2026. In short, some
[00:07:46] forces, allied with or affiliated with the
[00:07:49] UAE, are either not fighting at all, or are
[00:07:52] fighting a war that is not theirs. Of course, some them are
[00:07:56] fighting alongside the Saudi regime. Under these
[00:08:00] circumstances, particularly as the Saudi regime's aggression against
[00:08:03] Yemen escalated, forces loyal to the Sana
[00:08:06] government, the legitimate government, began conducting operations
[00:08:10] against Saudi oil facility. and military installations
[00:08:14] inside the kingdom of Saudi Arabia, alongside their
[00:08:18] ground advances along the western coast
[00:08:21] and entire province, these forces began launching attacks and
[00:08:24] conducting operations inside Saudi Arabia, even reaching the capital
[00:08:28] Rad, these operations focus on two
[00:08:31] targets, the first is Saudi Arabia's military
[00:08:34] capabilities, if there is a Saudi military airport from
[00:08:38] which air strikes against Yemen are launched, it's only...
[00:09:16] "Why have I linked the Yemen forces attacks a Ramco to the possibility the
[00:09:20] Saudi regimes collapse quite simply because Aramco
[00:09:24] is the crown jewel the regime.
[00:09:27] Aramko is the world's largest oil company and as we
[00:09:31] know Saudi Arabia is one the world's largest oil
[00:09:34] producers.
[00:09:36] Amco is the only company that produces and sells oil within
[00:09:40] Saudi Arabia. in terms of market value and
[00:09:44] production volume, oramco surpasses total of
[00:09:48] France, Chevron and exon the United States, BP
[00:09:52] the United Kingdom, Shell, and Russia's
[00:09:55] rosneft, all major global oil
[00:09:58] companies. The main source of revenue for the Saudi public
[00:10:02] treasury is Ramco's oil production, with the proceeds
[00:10:05] flowing to the Saudi regime. Without Ramco,
[00:10:09] Saudi Arabia would lose more than 54.
[00:10:12] total Looking at the period from
[00:10:14] 2009 to
[00:10:18] 2025, 71% the budget
[00:10:21] saudi government's revenue came from oil.
[00:10:25] revenues, meaning Aramco. Although the Saudi regime has announced
[00:10:28] plans to reduce its oil revenues and I am not referring to
[00:10:32] 2025 or 2026, but rather to its vision
[00:10:36] 2030 plan to reduce dependence on oil,
[00:10:40] the figure remains at 55%, according to official
[00:10:44] Saudi statements. This represents
[00:10:47] 55% the general budget revenue, meaning the money the
[00:10:51] Saudi regime collects to fund all aspects the country, including
[00:10:55] weapons and so on. 55% of this funding comes from
[00:10:59] oil, specifically oramco. this is an enormous
[00:11:03] proportion, and few countries in the world depend on oil revenues to this
[00:11:06] extent. therefore, the attacks carried out by the yemeny
[00:11:10] armed forces against Saudi oil facilities put Aramco at
[00:11:13] risk. however, the Yemenes are not pursuing an all-out attack
[00:11:17] strategy that would simultaneously disrupt all
[00:11:21] Saudi oil operations, even though they have the capability.
[00:11:25] to do so evidence of this can be seen in their actions since the
[00:11:29] war began in 2026, particularly in September and October of
[00:11:33] that year. Their attacks on Saudi Airports and their
[00:11:36] ability to significantly disrupt their operations
[00:11:40] demonstrate that they could launch even more extensive attacks
[00:11:44] against oil facilities. The Yemani armed forces are employing a
[00:11:48] strategy of gradual attacks because the sana government seeks to end
[00:11:52] the aggression, lift the blockade and pave the way toward it. ultimate
[00:11:55] goal, Yemen's independence and liberation from Saudi occupation and
[00:11:59] control. However, Muhammad bin Salman appears to be
[00:12:03] responding to this Yemani policy with further escalation, a course of
[00:12:07] action that baffles many. Why is Muhammad bin Salman
[00:12:11] escalating the war in Yemen, when he could have reached an agreement with the
[00:12:14] Yemeni government in Sana? The first signs of this possibility
[00:12:18] emerged years ago, specifically with the truth declared in
[00:12:22] 2022. It was in fact a comprehensive. Trues and the
[00:12:25] Saudi ambassador to Yemen began making regular visits to Sana to
[00:12:29] meet with Ansorula leaders as well as Yemeni government leaders and
[00:12:33] officials. During one these visits, the Saudi ambassador held a
[00:12:37] meeting
[00:12:38] with them to discuss various issues. The meeting was cordial, and later
[00:12:41] we saw delegation from Northern Yemen participate in the Haj
[00:12:45] pilgrimage in Saudi Arabia under the Saudi regime's
[00:12:48] official auspices. What I'm explaining here is that there
[00:12:52] was a genuine opportunity to... a significant
[00:12:56] understanding that could have prevented the current war, although
[00:13:00] the Saudi regime was among those that opened their airspace to intercept
[00:13:03] missiles and drones launched from Yemen towards Israeli occupation
[00:13:07] bases in occupied Palestine after October 7th,
[00:13:10] 2023, there was still an opportunity to reach major
[00:13:14] understanding between the Saudi regime and the Yemeni government
[00:13:18] in Sana that could have averted this war. However,
[00:13:22] Muhammad bin Salmon chose the opposite course, and as
[00:13:41] 2026, the spokes person for the coalition forces, that is the
[00:13:45] saudi led coalition forces, which refer to
[00:13:47] themselves as the coalition forces in Yemen
[00:13:51] threatened an oil facility in Yemen. was
[00:13:55] a highly surprising escalation, subsequently, Saudi
[00:13:59] aircraft launched air strikes against this facility, located
[00:14:03] near the capital, Santa, destroying it. This escalation was
[00:14:07] fully unjustified and incomprehensible, prompting me to ask,
[00:14:11] why is Muhammad bin Salman escalating the war in Yemen to this
[00:14:14] extent? Someone like bin Salman does not seem to realize that
[00:14:18] this escalation will endanger his own regime, as he is simply putting a
[00:14:22] Ramco at risk. The key issue here is the concentration of
[00:14:26] Saudi oil production and export infrastructure, for example, before the straight
[00:14:30] of hormos crisis and the US Israeli war against Iran,
[00:14:33] approximately 60% or more of Saudi oil exports pass
[00:14:37] through the port of Ras Tanura in the Persian Gulf.
[00:14:41] The port has an export capacity of around
[00:14:44] 6.5 million barrels per day, representing
[00:14:48] approximately 6% of global oil demand, according to
[00:14:51] 2021 figures. Another example of
[00:14:55] This concentration is the OP cake facility. I'm not sure
[00:14:59] how this name is pronounced in Saudi Arabia, but it is well-known that the
[00:15:02] facility was bombed several years ago, damaging part of its
[00:15:06] infrastructure. This facility processes nearly
[00:15:10] 70% of a Ramco's production, meaning that approximately
[00:15:14] 70% of Saudi oil production passes through a single
[00:15:17] facility, a truly alarming figure. At present,
[00:15:21] following the suspension of exports through the straight of hormos.
[00:15:25] Most Saudi oil exports are transported through the east-west
[00:15:29] pipeline, bypassing the straight of hormones and shipping oil from the
[00:15:32] red sea. In short, there are very few facilities in
[00:15:36] Saudi Arabia.
[00:15:50] to destroy these facilities in such a way that restoring them to
[00:15:54] operation would be extremely difficult and could take
[00:15:57] years. this threatens the very foundations of what is
[00:16:01] known as the saudi oil industry. many people around the world have
[00:16:05] commented on muhammad bin Salman's decision.
[00:16:16] Many have also compared these decisions to someone living a glass house
[00:16:20] who threatens his enemy with stones, even though his enemy has plenty of
[00:16:24] stones and his own house is made of glass. If your house is made of
[00:16:27] glass, why threaten others with stones? The reality of
[00:16:31] Saudi Arabia, which I discussed at the beginning of this episode,
[00:16:35] demonstrates
[00:16:36] that the Saudi regime. rests on solid foundations, or
[00:16:40] it has built such foundations for itself. It's not a
[00:16:44] fragile regime. However, this apparent solidity
[00:16:47] conceals a significant vulnerability, particularly in the
[00:16:51] oil sector. What I mentioned earlier suggests that this
[00:16:55] sector, its oil facilities and Aramco's installations, appears to
[00:16:59] have been built on the assumption that Saudi Arabia would never go to
[00:17:03] war. It's true that Saudi Arabia has defense system and the
[00:17:07] Saudi. regime has spent hundreds of billions of dollars over several
[00:17:10] decades, purchasing defense systems, military equipment, weapons, aircraft
[00:17:14] and missiles, primarily from the west. however, the reality of
[00:17:18] war has shown that the regime's ability to counter yemini attacks
[00:17:22] is not particularly strong. in other words, it possesses
[00:17:26] vast arsenal, but the regime's own choices have significantly limited
[00:17:30] its ability to respond to yemeni attacks. the
[00:17:33] situation persists despite the fact that as we have already mentioned,
[00:17:37] "the Yemani armed forces have yet to deploy their full forces have
[00:17:41] yet to deploy their full capabilities or launch a large-scale
[00:17:45] simultaneous attack against Saudi oil facilities, recorded. The
[00:17:49] destruction of Saudi oil facilities, should it occur, would have
[00:17:53] extremely serious consequences. Whether we like it or
[00:17:56] not, whether we approve or disapprove, the Yemenes are threatening to
[00:18:00] continue fighting as long as the aggression persists, and they are
[00:18:04] threatening escalate their operations for as long. long as it
[00:18:08] continues. This means they will continue attacking oil
[00:18:11] facilities as long as Saudi aggression against their country
[00:18:14] continues. At any moment, this could lead to the near
[00:18:18] total destruction of Saudi oil facilities. Let me
[00:18:22] reiterate that there are very few facilities whose
[00:18:25] destruction could completely disrupt Saudi Arabia's oil production and
[00:18:29] export capacity. These facilities account for more than
[00:18:32] 55%, or approximately 55% of
[00:18:36] Saudi Arabia's. This revenue has funded everything Saudi
[00:18:40] Arabia has spent for over a century to buy influence, secure
[00:18:44] loyalties and consolidate its powers in other countries. This
[00:18:47] includes financing the spread of wahabism, media
[00:18:51] outlets, politicians and security personnel as well as
[00:18:54] building an army, national guard, security apparatus and so
[00:18:58] on. All of this has been financed by oil, so why is
[00:19:02] Muhammad bin Salman gambling with all of this? Or to put the
[00:19:06] question more objective.
[00:19:37] popular reactions or attach any importance to public opinion or the responses of
[00:19:41] his opponents, whether domestic or foreign. We're talking
[00:19:45] about a truly absolute ruler, and few leaders around the
[00:19:49] world possess this degree of power or can genuinely be
[00:19:52] described as absolute rulers. In such
[00:19:55] circumstances, miscalculations and policy errors can certainly
[00:19:59] become wide spread, leading to the adoption and implementation of reckless
[00:20:03] decisions. Such actions could bring down any regime or lead to
[00:20:07] them. cannot be
[00:20:09] ignored.
[00:20:14] Of course, the Muhammad bin
[00:20:15] personal Salman factor is
[00:20:19] impulsive and displays recklessness that could be described as
[00:20:22] extreme enough to explain his decision to order the murder of
[00:20:25] Jamalji in 2018, in stating that he made
[00:20:29] the decision to assassinate, we are relying on information
[00:20:33] released by US intelligence at the time, which indicated that the order.
[00:20:50] former Lebanese prime minister, Saad Hariri, abducted.
[00:20:53] Hariri was detained in Saudi Arabia in 2017 in what
[00:20:57] became notorious incident. He is also
[00:21:01] reckless enough to have believed that he could declare war on Yemen
[00:21:05] in 2015 and bet on achieving victory there. In
[00:21:09] short, this recklessness could be decisive factor not only in
[00:21:12] its own right, but also in shaping Muhammad bin Salman's decisions. The same
[00:21:16] recklessness may also have contributed to his decision. to attack the
[00:21:20] United Arab Emirates in Yemen in 2015. While it
[00:21:24] is normal for one country to exert influence in another, it
[00:21:28] is also normal for a third country to attempt to gain influence and then be
[00:21:32] driven out. However, when preparing for a battle against powerful
[00:21:35] enemy, such as Yemen's legitimate government in Tana, one should
[00:21:39] not increase the number of one's enemies. On the
[00:21:43] contrary, one should strengthen one's allies and reduce the number of
[00:21:46] one's adversaries. Based on this one. might conclude that
[00:21:50] recklessness, stupidity or poor judgment may have contributed
[00:21:54] significantly to Muhammad bin Salman's decisions, but these factors alone
[00:21:58] are not enough to explain them. Muhammad bin Salman
[00:22:02] may be convinced that the United States and Israel are determined to
[00:22:06] overthrow the political system in Iran. His actions in Yemen could
[00:22:10] therefore be linked to this belief, or he may possess
[00:22:13] information suggesting that this is the case. The main
[00:22:17] argument I'm putting forward is that the U.S. are preparing
[00:22:21] to overthrow the political system in Iran and will wage an
[00:22:24] uncompromising war to achieve that goal, according to
[00:22:27] Muhammad bin Salman, the system will either collapse or be
[00:22:31] significantly weakened after this war. Consequently, he
[00:22:35] believes that this outcome will weaken his enemies in Yemen, making
[00:22:39] him willing to pay a high price to continue the war because
[00:22:43] he expects the outcome to favor him once the
[00:22:46] Iranian system has once the Iranian system.
[00:23:29] politically this is a plausible gamble, however upon closer examination,
[00:23:33] it appears that events are not moving in that direction, it's important to
[00:23:37] consider that Israel has already launched extensive air strikes against
[00:23:41] Yemen, yet these attacks did not bring about the collapse the
[00:23:44] Yemani armed forces in the north, further more, the US launched
[00:23:48] a large scale area. campaign
[00:23:50] the US Navy and Air Force waged to war against Yemen in 2025 from
[00:23:54] March 15th to May 6th. This means that the US
[00:23:58] military under Donald Trump deployed its full capabilities and
[00:24:02] resources, including fire power and intelligence a broad
[00:24:06] and comprehensive war against Yemen, it failed to weaken the Yemenese
[00:24:09] armed forces and consequently failed to defeat them. After his
[00:24:13] attempt fail, the US was forced to halt the war. Donald
[00:24:17] Trump then declared, I stopped the war at the Yemen.
[00:24:20] In addition to all this, the current campaign, which began in
[00:24:24] September 2026, has benefited from crucial
[00:24:27] intelligence support provided to the Saudi regime by the US
[00:24:31] and Israel, as well as logistical support from the United States and
[00:24:35] several European countries, including France, Italy and the United
[00:24:38] Kingdom. The effects of this assistance became evident during the
[00:24:42] Saudi regime's air campaign against the Yemeni Armed forces in its
[00:24:46] attempt to retake Babel. We are referring.
[00:24:50] to the events the first week of October 2026, when Saudi backed
[00:24:53] forces in Yemen attempted to regain control of Babel
[00:24:56] Mandep. All air traffic monitoring applications
[00:25:00] showed European aerial refueling aircraft supporting Saudi
[00:25:04] Aircraft. My point is that the Americans have experienced
[00:25:07] fighting in Yemen and are also providing
[00:25:11] intelligence and logistical support. This assistance is
[00:25:14] crucial to the Saudi regime. Previously, in 2015 when the
[00:25:18] Saudi regime launched its aggression under the name operation
[00:25:22] decisive storm, muhammad bin Salman recruited Sudanese
[00:25:25] forces and forces from other countries. This
[00:25:29] operation involved most the Saudi regime's allies in the
[00:25:32] region and around the world, even some countries that later became
[00:25:36] adversaries such as the Qatari regime, participated in the
[00:25:39] war, at least initially. There were also countries with no connection
[00:25:43] to Yemen, no interests there, and no threats originating from Yemen,
[00:25:47] such as the Maroccan regime that joined Muhammad.
[00:26:02] wrong, but they could fail, and the likelihood of failure is
[00:26:06] very high. Given this reality, we return to a fundamental
[00:26:10] question: why is Muhammad bin Salman taking such enormous risks in
[00:26:14] Yemen? Or to put it more objectively, why is Muhammad bin Salman
[00:26:18] embarking on such a dangerous adventure in Yemen? The truth is that
[00:26:22] there is other answer beyond the possibilities we have already
[00:26:26] discussed, and when there is no clear answer, the door
[00:26:29] opens even greater dangers. greatest danger
[00:26:33] lies in Aramco. If Aramco's facilities are destroyed, I
[00:26:37] will have to reconsider what I said at the beginning of this episode about the
[00:26:40] resilience, strength and stability the Saudi regime. The
[00:26:44] collapse of Aramco would been the collapse the Saudi regime's
[00:26:48] most sacret institution. In that case, it
[00:26:52] would be difficult for the regime to survive, or at the very
[00:26:55] least, for it to continue under Muhammad bin Salman's
[00:26:59] leadership. See you soon a new episode.

[00:27:21] when bombs stop falling, casualty figures are tallied, names are added
[00:27:25] to list, but numbers cannot measure the lives that unravel
[00:27:29] after the explosions, wars count those killed by
[00:27:32] missiles, they rarely count those who survived them and may
[00:27:36] later die of grief. yes, you heard that right,
[00:27:40] grief. 31 year old sayid
[00:27:43] Alham Sadiqi became one of those. in the early hours of March
[00:27:46] 26th, a US is really strike reduced her family home
[00:27:50] a neighborhood to rubble. her husband,
[00:27:53] local football coach Hussein Maliki and their two young
[00:27:57] sons, age five and three were killed. around them,
[00:28:01] nine homes were destroyed. and 24 people died from the US Israely
[00:28:05] attack. Alham survived for seven hours, rescuers
[00:28:08] searched through concrete and twisted steel before pulling
[00:28:12] her from beneath the depre. The fallen sofa had shielded her
[00:28:16] head from the collapsing building, but her injuries were
[00:28:20] severe. Her greatest wounds, however, were invisible.
[00:28:23] weeks later, a video of at home standing on the ruins of her
[00:28:27] home spread across Iran. In her hands was a handritten note
[00:28:31] rescued from the... trouble when her young son
[00:28:35] had written before the attack. as she read it, her voice
[00:28:38] faltered. around her lay the remains the life she
[00:28:42] had built. her father says that after losing her
[00:28:46] husband, her children and her home, she was never the
[00:28:50] same. she withdrew from the world, spoke
[00:28:53] consently of her family and struggled to bear even
[00:28:56] ordinary sounds after more than two months of
[00:29:00] overwhelming grief after losing her. family in US-Israely
[00:29:03] attack, she suffered fatal stroke and died. Her
[00:29:07] story speaks to a quieter, taller war of survivors
[00:29:11] who carry the destruction with them long after the
[00:29:15] dost settles. It also reflects a wider pattern of
[00:29:18] US-Israeli aggression across the region that has left behind
[00:29:22] a deeper toll not only a single moment of impact, but
[00:29:26] in the lasting human consequences that
[00:29:29] follow.
