One of the biggest unreported stories of last year is America’s inaction as the Houthi’s closed critical shipping lanes through the Suez Canal. This caused prices to rise as ships diverted around Capetown. The only question that needs answering is how did it benefit the regime running the Biden Administration?

America's "inaction" was a solid policy decision by an administration that didn't make many of them.

The U.S. didn't do anything to deal with the Houthis because the U.S. had no legal or diplomatic standing to protect ships that weren't flying U.S. flags and were not assets of U.S. companies.

They’re trying to crash the system, plain and simple.
