The Lion, the witch and the audacity of this b!tch. Seriously the more I see this man, the more pale and white hair he seems to become. He can’t say it but deep down, he knows the USA is f@cked for all the stupid bullcr@p they have done in Ukraine and now Israel and sooner or later, if he doesn’t watch his health, he just might kick the bucket when the contradictions become a little too much for his pea brain to handle. Simple logic dictates that genocides are wrong and yet for a supposed God fearing man, he doesn’t do anything but do everything in his upmost to ensure the madness continues. Sooner or later, this wicked man will burn in hell for his misdeeds and like Colin Powel and Madaline Albright and John McCain, their actions will only serve to make the USA fall all the more sooner rather then ensure its security. Not to mention, what did these POS amount to anyway, it’s not like any of these people are remembered as opposed to most of the world what them to fade away into the darkness, never to be remembered again

It's true there's no connection, as both type of AShBM in Houthi hands are unrelated to M-7 that China exported to Iran:

That said, I think the whole "new revolutionary weapon can allow Eurasia to push away ocean based powers" and upset the world's geopolitical balance is on point. Remember for the longest time in history Eurasia was the place where history happened, areas outside of it were the peripherals of the world and didn't matter. It is possible the world could return to that state in the future.
I thought the Houthi missiles are based on Iranian HQ-2? That means they're not true ASBM comparable to the ones in China, they're the same category as surface mode fired HQ-9, but more primitive.

No only some Iranian missiles trace their root to M-7 (the ballistic missile based on HQ-2), they also have entirely domestic lines of missile development too.

With this technological development will the heart land theory be the only one to survive and will the rimland theory end up in the trash bin of history? When computation, optics and AI models for object recognition proliferate, naval power will have a really hard time..

That's going to be hard.
The Roman Catholics created "The Doctrine of Discovery" where European Christians were able to claim lands faraway as theirs which led to a surge of colonization of the rest of the world by European powers.
Desmond Tutu: "When the missionaries came to Africa they had the Bible and we had the land. They said 'Let us pray.' We closed our eyes. When we opened them we had the Bible and they had the land."

Beyond that, how nice would it be if the PLAAF can also have an airbase/airfield in the region. Could station a couple maritime patrol/ELINT/SIGINT UAVs to conduct intel gathering as well.

In the meantime, in case there are obvious indications that things are going really bad and out of control in West Asia due to the present conflict, someone in Beijing better be prepared to dispatch a naval task force (centered around one LHD and/or LPD with DDG + FFG escorts) to the region and conduct evacuations of Chinese nationals there.

Sounds like missionaries were the medieval version of western NGO.

Modern day version:
"We had the resource, they had democracy. They said why not vote and let the people decide. Once we voted we had democracy and they had the resources..."
