“Joe Biden’s response was pathetically weak, so the unrestrained Houthis just kept going. It has been over a year since a U.S. flagged commercial ship safely sailed through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, or the Gulf of Aden. The last American Warship to go through the Red Sea, four months ago, was attacked by the Houthis over a dozen times. Funded by Iran, the Houthi thugs have fired missiles at U.S. aircraft and targeted our Troops and Allies. These relentless assaults have cost the U.S. and World Economy many BILLIONS of Dollars while, at the same time, putting innocent lives at risk,” he continued.

“The Houthi attack on American vessels will not be tolerated. We will use overwhelming lethal force until we have achieved our objective. The Houthis have choked off shipping in one of the most important Waterways of the World, grinding vast swaths of Global Commerce to a halt, and attacking the core principle of Freedom of Navigation upon which International Trade and Commerce depends,” he added.

Darn. I hoped he was talking about our black robed so-called judges (Marxist insurrectionists)

Don’t touch our ships.

Our response will be proportional. Just ask Iran.

For all Joe Biden knew, the “Houthis” were the sidekicks of Cornpop, while we sqandered billions shooting down their toys.

Do we need boots on the ground to paint targets or does it happen another way like via drones?

Either way, cheers for the actions!

Our decimated industrial base will take years to make good on all the ordinance used. The Chinese know this.

(“Today, I have ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen. They have waged an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones,” Trump said.)

I sure wouldn’t want to be them Houthis about right now.
