Antony J. Blinken: the dumbest statement of the day

I know that US Department of State is very boring but he is also quite uninsightful and--how to say it--not very bright.  Today, he said from Saudi Arabia that the Saudi regime is merely sending a message to the Huthis that you can't control Yemen by force.  And how is the Saudi regime sending that message? By force or peacefully, please tell me?  Also, how did the Saudi regime control Bahrain? By force or peacefully?
