The UAE and Israel were being readied to keep peace without cost to the US and the Dems apparently cannot stand that idea. Apparently they like China out sourcing weapons better than US companies.

I do not support the palestinians, Iranians, or Saudis as they have not supported me. I pretty well despise the Saudi Government and have ever since 9/11. I really do not know that much about the UAE.
I like the Saudis an I understand their situation.. Maybe the US is going to patrol the Bab al Mandab and Socotra to keep the terrorists at bay.
Not sure why they cannot defend themself.
Its a huge problem.. and an ugly one..
Saudi Arabia has pumped billions into Yemen for 40 years.. .. Healthcare, education, water treatment, food, medicine.. job creation.. By 1998 AQ was flooding into Yemen from Afghanistan. .. and were soon joined by al Shabaaz, Boko Haram, Houthis and ISIS as well as some Somali pirates.
They attacked the USS Cole and launched a number of failed suicide attacks against KSA and the US.
The Saudis even moved a bunch of Arab villages 20 kilometers back from the Yemen border between 1999 and 2001... and have a very sophisticated wall across the Asir mountains.
The terrorist groups have dogged them with cross border attacks for a decade (more) before they went to war. Its bad.. The jihadis want to take over the Bab al Mandab and Socotra.. That means these crazies would control traffic from the Red Sea, Suez Canal and terrorize the Indian Ocean...
This map may help.
