At least 12 people were killed and over 300 injured when a cruise missile that Yemen’s Houthi jihadists fired struck departure Terminal 3 at King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh.
Activist “Islamophobia” articles and condemnations about Israel’s war on jihadists occupy more space and get more attention among the Western woke mainstream media, than: Muslim on Muslim violence, Palestinian violence on Jewish civilians, black-on-black violence, which is a massive problem everywhere (not just in American inner cities, but across the Caribbean and Africa as well), and the ever-ignored Christian persecution, including a genocide in Nigeria by Muslims.
Houthis attacking Saudi Arabia and killing pilgrims doesn’t fit the narrative of Islam being a religion of peace; nor does it boost self-hating woke Westerners who loathe their own traditions. An article a decade ago in the Jerusalem Post pointed out “Muslims killing Muslims in droves, but Israel the one being condemned.” Back then, the number stood at around 12 million Muslims killed by other Muslims between 1948 and 2016. That number has significantly escalated in the last 10 years.
Western media continues to descend into global irrelevance only serving the purpose to dismantle the West, while aiding enemies.
“Houthi strikes torment pilgrims travelling to Islam’s holiest sites,” Arab Weekly, October 15, 2026:
Pilgrims in Saudi Arabia to visit Islam’s holiest sites may not have anticipated being caught up in an air war, but some experienced an attack by Yemen’s Houthis first hand and others have been forced to change their plans.
Footage of the massive blast that killed 13 people and wounded 300 in a Riyadh airport departure terminal struck by a Houthi missile on Saturday showed many passengers attired in the simple white clothes of Muslim pilgrims travelling to Mecca.
Saudi media reported that a Bangladeshi imam leading a group of dozens of pilgrims was killed and others wounded in the attack.
While the Houthis have promised not to attack either Mecca or Medina, the two holiest places in Islam that attract millions of pilgrims each year, they are targeting other Saudi airports in what they call retaliation for Saudi attacks on them.
“I feel deeply worried for my family and myself,” said Fadi Anwar, a Jordanian living in Mecca sitting in the courtyard of the main mosque in Mecca who was wearing the pilgrim’s robes.
“We constantly receive warnings (phone alerts from the authorities) and it causes us great anxiety.”
Saudi officials have said the kingdom is safe and that the security of visitors is valued above all else, an offer of reassurance even as Western governments have warned against using most Saudi airports….
