  1. The US Ships are commercial ships and not military ones for those who don’t want to read the article.

  2. Good on them. Maybe Biden will finally admit how much of a fuck up his Iran appeasement policies were.

  3. Have wondered several times what the Houthis, an insignificant ragtag military ruling over a starving, impoverished population in a failed state, hope to gain by diverting so many resources in an effort bound to see them flattened. Possibly they are only doing the bidding of Iran as many believe.

    Otherwise, really getting a “Mouse That Roared” vibe here. /s

    *An impoverished backward nation declares a war on the United States of America, hoping to lose and then be rebuilt by the generous victors, but things don’t go according to plan.*

    Edit: Added an /s for anyone who needed it.

  4. I’m surprised that the US is apparently unable to crush their ability to do this.

  5. US ships??? Commercial ships are very rarely registered in the US. The article (nor the Houthis) does not address whether they were owned by US companies, or if they carried US sourced or bound cargos. I’m doubting if the Houthis had any idea who owns the ships or what was on them.

  6. Apparently they just sunk a British commercial ship. Serious escalation

  7. As someone “fucks around” more and more, the odds of “finding out” approach 100%.

  8. The Houthis have won the coin toss and have elected to receive.

  9. I’ve got a feeling that they’re getting dangerously close to the “find out” phase.

  10. So at what point is striking Iran a possibility, this isn’t going to stop anytime soon.
