  1. Houthis about to find out about their promised virgins

    I love how AP put a map in the article basically subtitled as “this is Yemen, btw”

  2. They’re about to find out what a “proportional response” looks like

  3. If they actually managed to hit a commercial ship they will see a response. If they managed to hit the US warship they will see a war.

  4. In terms of this causing an escalation of war in the area, it’s just not a concern. These militant groups might be directed by Iran, but they certainly aren’t backed up by Iran.

    What’s more confusing is how Iran seems to convince these islamist groups to go shit disturb over and over. Like… what’s in it for them?

  5. Firing on an Arleigh Burke class destroyer? That’s entering deeply into the FAFO zone.

  6. It seems like the Middle East is in some desperate need for freedom🦅🦅

  7. So 2 commercial ships get targetted, a Bahaman-flagged ship owned by Anglo Eastern (Unity Explorer), and another owned by ZIM (Number Nine) seems like only one was hit by a drone (confirmed by UKMTO), and a ballistic missile was reported as landing near the other ship (Houthis say they used a drone on “Number nine”. USS Carney intervenes on behalf of the British ship now fearing a hijacking, Carney gets attacked by drones probably en route to the distress call, and shoots down 2. Just one day after the US intercepted an Iranian drone for unsafe maneuvers.

  8. Oh man. Americans are about to unleash the beast. Gonna learn the hard way

  9. I hope they like rubble, because this is how they turn their country into it.

  10. ELI5

    America has been attacked multiple times, unsuccessfully, by Yemen in the last month. Why has America not done a full on retaliation at this point? Why is it just allowing these attacks knowing they’re not gonna stop?

  11. “hey why is the sky on fire?”

    Those guys probably soon

  12. I’m going with this is all Putin’s doing…..again. I’m convinced he’s pulling the strings from out of harms way

  13. Remember that time the US decided to respond in a “proportional way” and knock out an oil rig or two, but once there was blood in the water every commander in the gulf wanted in and before you knew it the Iranian Navy was sunk?

  14. If you’re wondering who had the balls to attack a US warship, it seems to be Yemen’s Houthis Rebels.

    They admitted to targeting the commercial ships for links to Isreal, but didn’t claim to attack the US warship.

  15. Houthis are really trying to get obliterated quickly. What do they think will happen if they kill a US sailor?

  16. We really ought to start sending 2000 lb love letters to tehran.

  17. Any disruptions to Suez bound cargo will have immediate impacts in Europe. Historically, 10% of Europe’s Oil and 16% of Europe’s LNG needs transited the Red Sea. As a result of the war in Ukraine and Western sanctions, Europe’s current dependence on this route have increased dramatically.

  18. They about to learn why Americans can’t afford healthcare the hard way.

  19. Well things are about to get extremely proportionate in the Red Sea.
