The United States intensified its military involvement in Yemen by launching over the weekend a series of airstrikes targeting the Iran-aligned Houthis. While the escalation is intended to curtail the Houthis’ ability to disrupt critical international shipping routes in the Red Sea, it has resulted in substantial civilian casualties and raised regional tensions, prompting varied reactions from both global and local analysts.
According to the Houthi-run Health Ministry, at least 53 people — including women and children — have so far been killed, and nearly 100 others injured in the U.S. strikes. U.S. officials report that the attacks hit multiple Houthi strongholds, including in the capital Sanaa and the strategic port of Hodeidah. These locations serve as military hubs while also being densely populated urban centers.

They do have a lot to answer for and not just meddling there but also in many other countries
But Trump + UK (shamefully) need to be careful with sending in the bombers to urban areas
It’s making them stronger soon they won’t be “rebels” they’ll run the place with a huge grudge
The Houthis are Muslim fundamentalists who believe they have the right and religious obligation to convert, kill and/or enslave everyone in the world who is not Muslim.
Western technology rid us of this scourge with the First World War and the end of the Ottoman Empire.
Why would anyone want to bring it back? If you allow these people to attack and survive, you will get greatly magnified attacks, which is exactly what we see.
Yet attacking them and harming civilians act as their best recruitment
Don’t you see it?
And all of those reports are true because members of the religion of death and lies tell us so. Uh-huh. They fired at us. Let the games begin.
It doesn’t matter to Muslims.
Trump is so close to settling Ukraine, reviving arms control and reduction and settling the ME. The Iranians want peace and economic stabilization. The Russians will do what they can, if asked, to bring the Iranians to the legitimate negotiating table.
It’s in Trump’s hands now. If he’s still listening to the neocons on Iran and its proxies, he will screw the pooch on most of his geopolitical plans for a lasting peace for America.
Well, Mr. Libertarian, why don’t you go replace the women/children shields with yourself?
(They would still be used anyway)
Don’t like reality, don’t come to the site.
If Trump and his Admin want to dispute them they should come out and do so
Sorry to say this is cowardly
COME ON Doanld. He is better than the drone king Obama
By the way, this is NOT a Libertarian site.
It is a CONSERVATIVE site.
(Your frequent warnings are coming true about the Middle East)
Yes. What the Lord God has
written SHALL all come true
It WILL NOT and CAN NOT be avoided
It’s just a matter of time until
we catch up with what has been written
oh so long ago
I’ve always had confidence in that
which is the main reason that I do
all of my cRaZY posts 😜
God bless
You take the rough with the smooth
I know that but this is a legit article with expert citations
It’s not great and the site would be boring if all we did was preach to the choir
Some conservatives are against intervention and bombing in foreign lands. In fact, it’s a long held tradition and strain in American conservatism . Look at Goldwater for example
We infuriated them so much they vowed to do what they were already doing.
This is nothing new. They’ve hated us for years. Color me as someone who doesn’t give a chit.
Ok, you’re basing your ranting on the veracity of the houthis report. That seems unwise. They have every reason to lie…rather like all Muslims who are getting beaten. Let’s just relax and see how this plays out…rather than jump to possibly false conclusions based on unreliable info.
Too bad you weren’t on one of the American ships that was attacked.
WHY aren’t’ the admin disputing it ? If this is the case I’d expect the Defense sec. or Trump himself to refute it
He isn’t
Also, no one including the Congress has even authorized this nonsense
lol, ok. I see you want to be all worked up. Have fun….
Yet attacking them and harming civilians act as their best recruitment
Don’t you see it?
The Muslims understand military force and defeat. They have consistently been willing to submit when they have been militarily defeated.
As they say, They love death. They crave death. They crave martyrdom.
Give them what they want.
