At last check, its NOT clear yet whom is in charge of the Capital andor itself Yemen after this alleegd "attempted coup".

Again, the scenario exists that in order to stop local Shia/Houthi Rebels, Yemen [+ other smaller GCC Govts?] may ask AQIY/AQAP, AL-NUSRA, andor even ISIS/ISIL to intervene agz the Rebs.

Other than a major attack or ground campaign agz Israel or other US Ally, the above could put both the KSA + Rising Iran on a direct mil confrontational path + blow the ME wide open. IFF THE US-WEST/ALLIES THINK WHAT HAS HAPPENED THUS FAR IN LIBYA, EGYPT, SYRIA, UKRAINE + NOW IRAQ IS BAD, THEY HAVEN'T SEEN ANYTHING YET!
