Houthis in Yemen warn the U.S. to stop giving aid and comfort to Israel. |
President Joe Biden and former president Donald J. Trump are hardline supporters of Israel. And it will cost them big time come election time. Democrats are likely going to suffer the most out of this.
When nearly 60% of the Democratic Party supports a ceasefire, Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris and Democrats in Congress ignore them. The price of ignoring Democratic voters will cost them big time.
Israel is facing pressure.
Yemen is taking action against Israel by banning it commercial sea traffic from its coastal waters in the Red Sea. They are telling Israeli ships to find another route. If Israel continues to deny humanitarian assistance to Gazans and keeps the genocide going, Yemen will permanently block Israel from entry into its territorial waters.
So like always, Israel plays the victim and calls upon the United States to aid its ships through the Red Sea.
So thus, the U.S. may be preparing to engage in war with Yemen.
Top Biden administration officials are actively weighing options to strike back at Houthis in Yemen after the Iran-backed group launched new attacks on naval and commercial ships in the Red Sea on Saturday, according to two U.S. officials.
The Pentagon has in recent days moved the Dwight D. Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group from the Persian Gulf into the Gulf of Aden, off the coast of Yemen, to support a potential U.S. response to attacks, said one of the officials, both of whom were granted anonymity to speak about sensitive plans. The military has also provided options to commanders to strike the Houthis, the official said.
The Biden administration has been reluctant to respond militarily against the Houthi attacks on [Israeli] commercial shipping in recent weeks for fear of provoking Iran, which backs Hamas and Hezbollah in Yemen as well as the Houthis. Previously, the Pentagon had recommended the administration not do so.
But a significant uptick in attacks in recent days could potentially lead top U.S. national security officials to change their calculus.
The destroyer USS Carney, operating in the Red Sea, shot down 14 one-way attack drones launched from Houthi-controlled territory in Yemen early Saturday morning. Meanwhile, a British destroyer, the HMS Diamond, which had recently arrived in the region to help protect commercial shipping, also shot down a Houthi drone.

On Friday, a Houthi drone struck the Liberian-flagged Motor Vessel Al Jasrah in the Red Sea, causing a fire. The same day, Houthi forces also launched two ballistic missiles toward the Bab el-Mandeb strait, one of which struck the Liberian-flagged Motor Vessel Palatium 3. U.S. warships responded to the attacks at the time.
From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be Free! 🇵🇸 🍉
