Commentator Zvika Yehezkeli delivered a harsh message to Saudi Arabia following Houthi attacks on the kingdom and its appeal to Israel for assistance. In his remarks, Yehezkeli sharply attacked the Saudi leadership, accusing it of hypocrisy and lack of identity, and called not to rush to help Riyadh. "Don't rush to help the Saudis. Iran is fighting Saudi Arabia through the Houthis, through the most important energy source in the world - oil. They should pay the price," he said. Yehezkeli criticized the alliances Saudi Arabia promoted with Pakistan and Turkey, and asked why it does not turn to them for help instead of Israel. "Look how much money has turned the Saudis' heads. So much hypocrisy, so much a country lacking identity and character. They went to make an alliance with Pakistan and the Turks for the day of an attack. Here, the Houthis are attacking them. Why don't you go ask Turkey and Pakistan for help?" he wondered. At the end of his remarks, he again attacked the Saudi leadership and said that "the Saudis are hypocritical, cunning. You should not make agreements with them because they will flip the moment they feel comfortable."
