Why are the Iranians right that the Houthis are a "cheap proxy" and "ideal mercenaries"? * Iranian hostility toward the Kingdom has not materialized practically and through harm as it has with the Houthis * The Houthis, among Iran's militias, have killed more native citizens and people of the country than anyone else * A cleric: For the first time, they provided the seat of the Jurist Guardian with an "allied and subordinate state" in the Arab region It is not out of nowhere that the Iranians describe the Houthis and their hirelings in Yemen as "cheap" or "street thugs" in Iranian, and in the words of a commander in the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, "street Shia"—a famous and widespread designation dating back to early 2017 that spread widely in the media and platforms and became affixed to the Houthi militias. One of the clerics affiliated with the Hawza in Iran believed that those he called "supporters of the Ahl al-Bayt in Yemen," speaking about the Houthis, are the most "diligent in serving the Islamic Republic" and working toward the "spread of the Islamic Revolution"—(the Khomeinist one)—to the point that, for the first time, they provided the seat of the Jurist Guardian with an "allied and subordinate state" in the Arab region (..) after seizing the reins of power in Sanaa (!). An Iranian parliamentarian said, speaking of the Bab al-Mandab strait: "We have a cheap proxy" in Yemen! Today, when all the resentment, enmity, and indeed hostility of Iran's mercenaries and their agents in Yemen have become exclusively, directly, and explicitly directed against the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and advanced Iranian missiles and drones have come to target Saudi airports, facilities, and interests, and even target the holy sites, pilgrims, and civilians alike, we become certain of the truthfulness and accuracy of the Iranians' description of their filthy tools, their dirty gloves, and their hired militias in Yemen. Iranian hostility toward the Kingdom and the deep-seated hatred toward it did not materialize practically and through blatant, direct harm and targeting as it did with the Houthis and the "street Shia." Khomeinist Iran obtained cheap mercenaries and agents stripped of any belonging, identity, or loyalty to anyone other than the mullahs, the Jurist Guardian, and the generals of the Revolutionary Guard. Among all of Khomeinist Iran's agents, tools, and arms, the Houthis have killed more native citizens and people of the country than anyone else. Neither Hezbollah nor the Iraqi militias have killed Lebanese and Iraqis as much as the street Shia have killed Yemenis since the first war in 2004 until today in 2026, and the death toll counter does not stop, with the numbers of casualties rising every day, indeed every hour. The cheap mercenaries treat the blood and lives of Yemenis as cheap; they practice killing and various crimes, violations, assaults, acts of terror, looting, theft, torture, forced recruitment, and the forcible herding of children, students, workers, and farmers into a war furnace they have been fueling with the lives, heads, and bodies of Yemenis since 2014 without ceasing. Getting rid of Iran's cheap mercenaries is not a matter concerning Yemenis alone, nor the Saudis with them only; this malignant cancerous tumor and toxic Iranian tool is a global threat, just like Khomeinist Iran and its terrorist Guard.
