Geopolitical hardball. Saudi Arabia is fighting a war in Yemen against Iranian-backed Yemenis. Which side will Israel support? Which side will the US support?

It gets tangled.

My guess is that Israel would (if needed) fight alongside Saudi Arabia, because it hates Iran more than it does Saudi Arabia.

But the US wants a deal with Iran on nukes, and the Iranians are helping to fight against ISIS in Syria and Iraq.

So… which side does the US support? And what about Israel?
