US symbolic power: 70 years of air strikes being delivered by a "zombie military" bombing...

Editor's note: ...the shit out of one country after another. If there is one thing the US military does extremely well it is dropping bombs. It is a symbol of "American power." Nothing more. Like the US declaring they killed the "second in command of ISIS" in a bomb strike in Iraq. How do they know that? It's always advertised like with: "A precision strike." Where is the first in command of ISIS? The president of Syria Ahmad al-Shareh (terrorist™conversion kit: al-Shareh is now a "rebel leader") where Takfiri terrorists™ are gunning down Alawites? What about a US strike on a group of Takfiri terrorists™ in Syria? That recent bombing by the US military in Yemen killed a lot of civilians. People do not seem to get it. The Houthis are a remarkably tough and resilient people. Saudi Arabia, the UK and the US and Israel have been bombing the shit out of these people for the past 14 years and they are still fighting. The Houthis are "terrorists™" while the Takfiri lunatics in Syria are "rebels." It will only be a matter of time before a Houthi missile gets through and slams into a US naval asset in the Red Sea after which US sailors are going to be coming home in body bags:

Houthis threaten attacks on US warships

The de facto Yemeni authorities have vowed retaliation for the ongoing deadly bombing campaign

March 17, 2025 | By RT

The US has reportedly launched new airstrikes targeting the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah after the leader of the Houthi movement, Sayyed Abdul Malik al-Houthi, delivered a fiery speech condemning the attacks and threatening direct military action against American naval forces.

US President Donald Trump ordered the Pentagon to carry out a "decisive and powerful" operation on Saturday, aiming to dismantle the Houthi leadership and their ability to disrupt vital shipping lanes in the region. The first round of US strikes overnight killed at least 53 people, including women and children, and left nearly 100 injured, according to Yemen's Houthi-run Health Ministry.

[Editor's note: A "decisive and powerful" operation only invites retaliation and escalation.]

In his speech on Sunday, al-Houthi urged the Yemeni people to mobilize to confront the American "escalation with escalation," insisting that Yemen will not be pressured into submission.

"The American aircraft carrier and warships will be our target, and the decision to ban navigation will include the US as long as it continues its aggression," he declared.

[Editor's note: The Houthis seem to be very cautious in their response but escalation only means at some point a Houthi missile will get through.]

The Houthis claimed to have targeted the USS Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group in the northern Red Sea with a volley of 18 ballistic and cruise missiles, as well as drones, earlier on Sunday.

A senior US defense official told Fox News that approximately a dozen attack drones were intercepted and neutralized before posing a serious threat to the carrier group, leaving the Truman and its accompanying vessels unaffected.

The Ansar Allah movement, commonly known as the Houthis, has controlled a large part of war-torn Yemen since the mid-2010s. The group launched dozens of strikes on international shipping assets in late 2023 as part of a campaign staged in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza. Initially blocking only Israeli-linked maritime traffic, the Houthis later expanded their targets to include American and British commercial and military ships after a series of joint US-UK strikes on Yemen.
