Yemen gets bombed as a warning to Iran for Israel...

Editor's note: ...by a president who promised no more wars. That promise just got released off the pylons of US fighter jets flying sorties over targets in Yemen for Israel. This decision as many observers and analysts including VP Vance have correctly noted was a big mistake. Yemen was bombed to show Iran as the US Neocons around Trump would say: "We're the boss so you better listen to us." The editor of The Atlantic is Jeffrey Goldberg (big time Zionist Neocon) and why was he brought into Trump's inner circle when the decision was made to bomb Yemen? Tulsi Gabbard: Did you know Goldberg was "accidentally texted?" Goldberg revealed that he was invited by Waltz to join a chat on the encrypted app Signal entitled "Houthi PC small group." This is being reported as "accidental." It should be noted Goldberg worked as an Israeli prison guard in the IDF.  Was Goldberg correct in his actions? Mike Waltz is a long time Israeli lobby plant and anti-Iran hardliner. These are really some complicated circumstances made even more so considering Waltz's political views have been described as having "strong Christian Zionist leanings." This is the fatal error: Christians (Trump's voting block) somehow are viewed as having "integrity beyond belief." This is what happens when you are an American (America first?) but you serve a foreign country and defense contractors. Where is the "integrity" in that component to this shit show?

Does the US military even know why it's bombing Yemen?

Sources tell Military.com there had been no attacks against the Navy since before Trump's inauguration

By Kelley Beaucar Vlahos | March 21, 2025

Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth told Fox News last weekend that the U.S. military had launched operations against the Houthis in Yemen because "ships haven't been able to go through for over a year without being shot at." He then said that in December-ish (not giving a specific date) that "we sent a ship through, it was shot at 17 times."

Military sources who spoke to Military.com are puzzled because there were two attacks they know of in December against a merchant vessel and U.S. warships but "the munitions used didn't appear to add up to 17." Then nothing after that, until of course, March 16, when Houthis launched missiles and a drone against the USS Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier in the Red Sea in response to the U.S. airstrikes on March 15. They were intercepted.

Reporter Konstanin Toropin said as of Thursday, "the Pentagon and Trump administration had yet to fully explain what prompted the resumption of operations against the Iranian-backed rebel group after months of relative quiet in the Red Sea." When he asked specifically, he was directed to public statements by Trump and other officials, but those have been less than clarifying.

Defense officials did tell Military.com that the air campaign could go on for a month "or so" and that there "there is also less reluctance to hold off striking targets based on the casualties that may result." They also said there was "a very clear end state to this." But as Toropin pointed out, the officials he spoke with would not "go into detail about what specific aims they were trying to achieve."

U.S. airstrikes began targeting Houthi infrastructure in Yemen last weekend but are now going into the sixth day and are hitting the capital of Sana'a and residential areas, according to reports. "Dozens of people" were killed in the initial strikes, and there have been reports of civilian casualties, but the mainstream media appears not to have no information on that.

The Houthis had pledged to restart their attacks on Israeli-linked vessels since Israel broke the ceasefire with Hamas last week and renewed its incursions and bombardments of Gaza, insisting that Hamas must turn over its hostages before it stops. Some 500 Palestinians have been killed there just in just the last few days.

Meanwhile, a single Houthi missile was reportedly intercepted yesterday, heading towards Israel.

Trump has vowed to "annihilate" the Houthis and link their every move to Iran. The Pentagon, meanwhile, says "Houthi terrorists have launched missiles and one-way attack drones at U.S. warships over 170 times and at commercial vessels 145 times since 2023." The spokesman doesn't say that the vast majority of the attacks were thwarted before they did any damage and no American or anyone else has been injured or killed in the attacks (Houthis did detain a crew of a seized merchant vessel for 14 months but released them in January. No one is diminishing their plight).

Moreover, Houthi attacks have caused economic disruption as merchant ships in a minority of cases have been damaged and global shipping, mostly connected to European commerce, has been rerouted away from the region. The Washington Post says the industry largely doesn't plan on returning to the Red Sea routes anytime soon, but "has largely adapted to the disruption, and has even profited from the surge in shipping rates." Defense Priorities military analyst Jennifer Kavanagh says "freedom of navigation" is a core U.S. interest when disruptions are impeding U.S. economic security, but in this case, it is not.

News update for 26 March 2025. This is some sick shit and typical of American warmongers likely animated by an Abrahamic religion. From AntiWar we that "the Israeli news site Ynet reported that the US has told Israel not to worry about retaliating against the Houthis for their recent missile attacks, saying US forces will handle it." There is absolutely no proof the US military attack on Yemen killed the Houthis "top missile guy" and his girlfriend. Why do these people cheer, revel in revenge and wave flags after killing people?
