US Carries Out Another Strike on Houthis in Yemen

“ The strikes on Tuesday were aimed at four missiles that were being prepared to be fired”

Because they don’t know where to get any more missiles and eventually they’ll just magically run out.

[Belteshazzar]

Another example of FJB’s brilliant foreign policy, which has carefully analyzed the intentions of the Iranians, perhaps even clandestinely acquiring copies of documents detailing such intentions or acquiring them electronically. How else could the Biden administration carry out so effectively exactly what Iran wants us to do.

Carpet bomb the missile and rocket launcher sites with napalm.

[jimwatx]

The American armed and trained Saudis carpet bombed them for 9 years and they didn’t give up. Actually the Saudis gave up after the Houthis sent drones against their oil facilities.

We need to leave before we embarrass ourselves any further. It’s impractical for us to keep the Red Sea open. Let ships sail around the cape. As per usual we are wasting a ton of money being there and accomplishing nothing.

[hardspunned]

The Saudis, flying American planes, have dropped American bombs on the Houthis for nearly a decade. Americans flying the planes and dropping the bombs will be no more successful than the Saudis were.

You will be denounced as a coward and isolationist.

Meanwhile 30 million wetbacks, Haitians, and assorted low IQ trash roam our country while spending our tax dollars.

Israel, Egypt, and Med countries should be the ones policing the seas there if so chosen.

[cowboyusa]

That ma6 be true, but 5hey hit our ships.

[EEGator]

Are you referring to Eagle Bulk Shipping out of Connecticut?
They are owned by ZIM Integrated Shipping out of Haifa, Israel.
Explain that.
Explain why they fly a Marshall Islands flag.

[PIF]

US and others continue pinprick retaliation, proving weakness does not pay.

[cowboyusa]

No, the Uss Carney.

[airborne]

Because they don’t know where to get any more missiles and eventually they’ll just magically run out

I'm more concerned about Biden (deliberately) using up our armaments without replacing it.

Like he did with our strategic oil reserves.

[EEGator]

Was hit by missiles?

[cowboyusa]

Yes

[EEGator]

Post news.

[cowboyusa]

It was a ship called the Gibraltir Eagle, sorry. They would not be doing this under President Trump. Peace through strenth works.

[EEGator]

That’s the one I referenced in my previous post.

The parent company is Israeli, that’s why it was fired upon.
It is a duplicitous business to gain US protections via some BS security pact with the Marshall Islands while not paying proper taxes.

The governments in the area should police the seas there, not us.

Trump isn’t POTUS, so what Yemen wouldn’t do is irrelevant.

Our border is under perpetual assault.

[cowboyusa]

I’m Isolationist, unless people mess with us.

[cowboyusa]

I agree with the border, the Houtis should have not messed with us.

After enduring a 600-mile trek across the unforgiving Libyan desert, on April 27, 1805, O’Bannon’s men attacked Derna, a coastal town in present-day eastern Libya. They overran the harbor fort at Ras del Matariz and raised the American flag in victory over foreign soil for the first time during a war. In further actions, they drove the forces of Yusef, under Hassan Aga, from the town. It was from this action that the line in the Marine Corps hymn, “…to the shores of Tripoli” originated. For his efforts, Prince Hamet presented O’Bannon with the bejeweled Mameluke sword that he had carried while serving with the Egyptian Mamelukes.
