Updated 3/15/25 11:39 PM EDT
US airstrikes are reportedly hitting the Yemeni capital city of Sanaa today, with President Trump promising “overwhelming lethal force” against the Houthi movement in northern Yemen unless they stop all attacks on international shipping.
Early casualty figures indicate a lot of civilians have been killed or wounded. The most recent figures from al-Mayadeen were at least 24 killed and many more wounded. 10 civilians were killed in Sanaa alone.
Trump said that he had decided to launch “decisive and powerful military action” against the “Houthi terrorists,” accusing them of piracy against Americans. He also condemned former President Joe Biden for being “pathetically weak” and said no American commercial ship had gone through the Suez Canal in over a year.
Like many of the important US declarations of war these days, President Trump’s announcement came via a post on his social media application Truth Social, and was punctuated with all caps screeds railing about hell raining down on Yemen “like nothing you have ever seen before!”
Trump also notably took time out from announcing attacks on the Houthis to threaten Iran in the post, insisting that if Iran continues to support the Houthis and the Houthis do anything to threaten Trump “who has received one of the largest mandates in Presidential History” he would hold Iran responsible and “won’t be nice about it.”
The US has been backing military action against the Houthis in Yemen for many years now, dating back to the Saudi-led invasion of Yemen in 2015. That invasion was predicated on the idea of reinstalling President Abd Rabu Mansour Hadi, who was a close ally of the Saudis. Hadi had resigned a few months before the invasion.
The Saudi invasion resulted in a protracted war, leaving Saudis and their allies in control of much of historical Southern Yemen, but the Houthis retained the north, including Sanaa. The US for years backed the on-again, off-again offensives against central Yemen, trying to push toward Sanaa, but that ultimately never happened.
The Houthis became a bigger deal internationally after the Israeli war in the Gaza Strip. The Houthis made of policy of attacking Israeli-linked vessels passing by their area, and picked that up to include many commercial vessels, leading major shipping companies to avoid the area. Under President Biden, the US, Israel and UK launched airstrikes on the Houthis multiple times, though it did not result in any halt of strikes on ships.
The Houthis did, however, briefly stop attacks when the Israel-Gaza ceasefire was announced, though they have resumed attacks on Israelis in recent weeks because Israel is blocking humanitarian aid from entering the Gaza Strip.
The Houthis reportedly sank two boats in 2024, and President Trump claims they cost the US economy “billions of dollars.” It’s difficult to quantify the actual cost, though the Suez Canal was a popular shipping route and many are avoiding it now in favor of safer options.
Multiple strikes hit Sanaa itself, many of the US airstrikes are reportedly targeting the Houthis’ defensive capabilities, including missile systems and air defenses. Details are still coming in regarding the extent of the damage.
The Donald is Israel’s personal lapdog, to pull this kind of garbage!!!
If the "Houthis do anything to threaten Trump 'who has received one of the largest mandates in Presidential History' he would hold Iran responsible and 'won’t be nice about it.'"
The irony of The Donald doing this post-Purim is beyond description.
It's true! WW3 won't be nice at all.
If I had my way, I would tear this whole building down!
He barely won and has no mandate. He came nowhere near the victory Reagan 84 had, but acts like his win was the biggest in history. The orange felon decries fake news while being the king of fake news.
His "largest mandate in Presidential History" just like “overwhelming lethal force” is only in his mind. 100 days, honeymoon's over, who's going to clean up the mess he's made?
The buffoon has three more years to f*ck up more things.
Israel's behavior since October 7, 2023, is a telling indictment of why October 7 happened in the first place. You can't keep people suppressed for long before they reject the setup of suppression! Trump's support (like other US Presidents subservience to Israel) is 180 degrees from what a TRUE American President would stand on this OBVIOUS issue of genocide!
Palestinians have been suppressed 75 years!
The world ignored it.
Israel (with the approval of 97% of the population of Israel Jews) is now conducting a genocide.
The world ignores it.
The U.S. of Amnesia is complicit, providing intel, targeting, weapons.

Paper Tigering fits Trump personality well…!
Netmsn?… Too busy to say high?!…!
Ramble Box…!
Details of the "major attacks"? The USA has limited capabilities so far from home and just a few days ago they had a US drone downed (without damage, so they can reverse-engineer it even). Yemen has also hit three US aircraft carriers in the Gaza genocide context (the USA has 11 but also other conflict scenarios and maintenance duty, they don't seem able to deploy more than one or two such fleets at any time in the Middle East).
On the bright side, Trump may bring down the teetering remains of imperial hegemony.
That would happen soon…!
Is there a “bright side” to the killing of at least 19 civilians, incl. one mother and her child, and the destruction of a power station, causing a general outage, which is what Trump just did, according to what RT collected from the Yemeni authorities?
Trump (and Biden before him and Trump before Biden, etc.) is actually fighting to keep the US Empire strong, largely by keeping Europe chained to North America as quasi-colony. I just realized (or became aware again?) in another conversation that the whole meaning of the Ukraine and Middle East wars is no other than to amputate the “Silk Road” (BRI or whatever), to keep China (and to lesser extent also India, etc.) cut from Europe by means of denying any access to the Mediterranean Sea and by land via Russia and Turkey to the Asian powers, while forcing us Europeans to buy US hyper-expensive produce (from LNG to NVIDIA graphic cards, from Tesla cars to US military junk).
Not even the Chinese seem to fully realize this, as they are still advocating for cooperation with the USA, go figure!
Well… that chain is becoming soft lately getting weaker…!
Not deeply: it’s mostly appearances. On one side the European 2nd and 3rd tier powers are too divided and politically weak to present a joint front vs the USA for real. Al three great posturers are weak, each on their own way (Macron cannot effectively rule France, Merz has yet to become Chancellor and Starmer is very hated among his own voter base, who are Corbynist and anti-Zionist, even if confused and headless), meanwhile Meloni has already broken ranks and sided with Trump more or less.
Meanwhile Trump is back to supporting Ukraine and his “peace plan” seems a total failure (by design) each new dawn. The misalignment may have felt real, in may be somewhat real but it’s not that relevant.
I’m right now chewing on writing something on all this, as the dust is settling (at least in my head it is) and I’ll probably title it “Mare Nostrum”, which refers not so much to the Mediterranean but to the North Atlantic rather, which is not just firmly in US imperial hands (lesser seas like the Mediterranean, the Baltic, the Caribbean and the so-called “Gulf of America” included) but is also projecting around with Trumps arrogant but calculated moves re. Greenland, Panama and this war against Gaza and Yemen.
The “Silk Road” or BRI has been amputated with the full co-option of Turkey and military takeover of Syria, as well as with the Ukraine war. Europe has been fenced off from China and allies. And not even the Chinese seem to grasp this, bent as they are in not fighting the imperial war that (mostly) the USA is imposing on them.
US hegemony has two main pillars: EU which is getting away from US the way Trump is treating them thus far, and Israel which US is over-compensating its support going over roof…! Breaking any of these unions is the end of imperialism…!
Is the EU really getting away from the USA or is it only weak posturing and both are in ultimate agreement behind the curtains? Or something in between maybe?
The unholy trinity of Trumpskeptics (Starmer, Macron and Merz) are all weak politically: Macron is barely holding his presidency, unable to form any stable government (each one he appoints is rejected by Parliament, where he’s only the third force) and bound to call for general elections this very year, which will only weaken him even more; Merz is not yet even Chancellor and is bound to require a coalition; Starmer has parliamentary majority but he’s absolutely hated especially by his own Labour voter base, whom he has alienated to extremes.
On the other hand Trump has been backtracking re. Ukraine and setting the stage for no peace deal being possible at all, and thus he has been re-converging with the Euro-dissidents. Trump’s offers are extremely far from the Russian position, they have slightly improved communication but there is no peace (let alone a “ceasefire” that Russia doesn’t want) in sight.
Otherwise Europe will be looted by the USA in US conditions: we’re far from having a true rebellion of any sort, the media is US-controlled and so are in essence all politicians (not necessarily by Trump but by the US oligarchs anyhow).
Actually Chinese ships can pass through the Canal without issue, as long as they're bound for someone that isn't actively helping the genocide in Israel.
And I don't know so much about "keep the US empire strong" so much as "slow the collapse of the US empire". This is a graphic I found interesting the other day.

Interesting…!
That map is tricky because it doesn’t compare blocs (the USA is not alone: it has an Empire, China is much more on its own). It also doesn’t tell you actual fractions but just a generic “dominance”. The timeline is also extremely long.
China is largely holding that “dominance” by sticking against all odds to the USA, which is their largest export market by far (EU is close second as a whole, then Japan-SK). China needs those Western markets or else they would lose most of their “dominance” and would likely spiral into a very serious economic crisis. The USA also needs China anyhow because there are not yet alternative suppliers, so it would not be a problem for China alone, but Washington is trying shock therapy and “friendshoring” (especially but not only to Mexico) and so far the (very rigged) stock market has only plunged slightly as result.
To my eyes China has surrendered to the USA rather than the opposite, at least they have cornered themselves into a relatively weak position by not being assertive enough.
Trump’s lack of diplomatic finesse, his alienating of allies and his tariff mania may yet bring down US hegemony.
Yes and not. The real problem is that the rivals of the USA, notably China, are not even fighting against it but rather cooperating in tension. The “allies” are too much of vassals and are trapped in terms economic and otherwise (politics, secret services, etc.) so, barring a revolution, they can’t shake the US yoke easily, they don’t even try except for some posturing now and then (leverage rather than anything close to real rebellion).
Russia and Iran are more serious in their rivalry vs the USA than China is but they are also much weaker and cannot wrestle neither Europe nor the Middle East from US hands (their conservative ideology and authoritarian regimes dosn’t help either, as Western Europe leans strongly to the center-left, incl. “wokeism” and in this aspect Putin or the ayatollahs are not better than Trump, probably Trump is slightly more “woke” than these).
You’re right that the BRICS are not yet ready to declare outright opposition to Uncle Sammy, but they are far closer to it than at any time since the fall of the USSR.
And the position of the US is far weaker than at any time since then, as well.
IMO, Trump’s bluster and economic warfare is going to bite him the ass hard, sooner rather than later.
The US empire is one defeat away from collapse.
You may be right re. the US position and Trump’s aggressivity but I still think it’s all more calculated than it seems, and also that Biden was doing the same aggressive economic warfare by other means and without the big mouth. The whole Ukraine war issue is mostly economic warfare against Europe (turning it into a US colony, denying the market to China and Russia), destabilizing Russia is a secondary issue.
BTW, the “on the bright side” was gallows humor about a grim situation.
More so because even if true, the end of hegemony may be accompanied by …
Very long time since I heard that song. 🙂
It's a fun one.
Free speech!

So much for Trump being a 'peace president.' When will his followers finally admit they have been conned? He's obviously continuing his unconditional, immoral support for Zionist Israel. Get ready for war with Iran, China, Russia, and N. Korea as they are allying and gearing up for the inevitable WWIII.
“Diplomacy”. “Free speech”. “No cuts to medicare/caid, social security”. “Cutting the military budget”.
End that evil DEI by deleting from the archives of Arlington National Cemetary the names of black, Hispanic and women who have been laid to rest there, including Medal of Honor recipients. ( you need to read the accounts of Lt. Vernon Baker in WWII, it gave me chills).
It’s insane.
Trump famously said, "Bomb the shit out of the Islamic State." He appeared to give a green light to the military to murder women and children, saying, "When you get these terrorists, you have to take out their families."
Trump vetoed every bill passed by Congress to disengage US forces from the Saudi war in Yemen and to halt the sales of US-made warplanes and bombs, which the Saudis use to systematically kill Yemeni civilians. The humanitarian crisis in Yemen remains the worst in the world today.
Trump created a new conflict with Iran by pulling out of the nuclear deal, and he tried to start a full-scale war on Iran by ordering the assassination of Iran’s General Qasem Soleimani and Iraqi military commander Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis in Iraq.

FARHUD
Eight comments in five minutes is part of a pattern of flooding that constitutes an attack on the site.
You get one warning to knock that off.

You're quite partial to bullshit.
I got more comments than that my way
It does smell of a spam/ AI attack. The same with the person who posts ten links as a reply. Looks AI generated to me.
It's not posting ten links that's a problem.
It's posting e.g. 25 comments in 10 minutes, most of them just copies and pastes of previous comments, repeatedly.
You are obviously aggressively, authoritatively attacking me with your comment. I am not using artificial intelligence, but a search engine, to substantiate my comment and involve the forum in my research on the topic. The text of the internet links provides sufficient information about the content of the website. Every reader is free to decide whether they are interested in the internet links, whether they select them, whether they read them, whether they reply to me.
In any case, you oppose the background knowledge offered on the subject. Why do you object to a well-founded, non-binding, extended offer of knowledge that raises the level of a forum as a source of information?
I'm not interested in the trivial, banal level of a regulars' pub discussion, because it wastes time in gaining in-depth knowledge of current politics, daily international events etc. In the case of my reply to one of your comments in which you miss details of the author's article, I am offering you and the forum non-binding information about what is bothering you. In any case, I don't regularly send irrelevant pictures, and certainly not in bulk.
Fúck you.

"Prop up" Hamas, while suppressing 2.3 Palestinians in Gaza, a land 25 miles long, 5 miles wide with night raids, control of potable water, electricity, food.
What you are advocating is "getting even" for past events, an eye for an eye, against a people who have no army, navy, air force to match that of Israel, with 70% of the Palestinians murdered are women and children.
Why? Why did Israel attack an ally, the U.S., when it attempted to sink the U.S.S. Liberty, killing 34 sailors, wounding 171? Why does Israel spy on the U.S., Jonathan Pollard being prime example, along with a Hollywood producer who openly admitted doing so, and would do it again, yet he walks the street?
You're delusional. You're attacking me for supporting Palestine? OMFG!
Netanyahu was further embarrassed when photos of suitcases full of cash going to Hamas became public. https://x.com/galberger/status/1060597944271941632?s=20
"There's been a lot of criticism of Netanyahu in Israel for instating a policy for many years of strengthening Hamas and keeping Gaza on the brink while weakening the Palestinian Authority," said Mairav Zonszein of the International Crisis Group. "And we've seen that happening very clearly on the ground."
By the way, what I'm advocating is set out in the United Nations General Assembly – Right of peoples to self-determination.
The UNGA:
*Reaffirms the legitimacy of the struggle of peoples for their independence, territorial integrity, national unity and liberation from colonial domination, apartheid and foreign occupation by all available means, including armed struggle.
* Strongly condemns those Governments that do not recognize the right to self-determination and independence of all peoples still under colonial domination and alien subjugation, notably the people of Palestine.
In essence you are fine with the Genocide of the Palestinians, who have been suppressed for more than 75 years.
In essence, you are full of shit. I clearly oppose Israel's genocide of Palestinians.

there used be be 85 000 J e w s in arab and muslim lands
They were persecuted and their property was confiscated
Yahud have been moving around for thousands of years. The time period you refer to is not because they were hated by Arabs or Muslims but because Zionism was stealing their land and they resented that. In addition, Zionists instigated their emigration to Palestine.
According to the data documentation of http://www.palestineremembered.com , Israeli terrorists controlled 774 towns and villages during the Nakba. They destroyed 531 Palestinian towns and villages, committing more than 70 massacres against Palestinian civilians, killing at least 15,000 and displacing up to 800,000 Palestinians during that time.
The Nakba never ended.

I don't know about this quote but you are looking very weak. Peddling propaganda about the past while you are aiding a genocide that's going on now by pretending to ignore it.
Exasperating, isn't it? He is OK with murder of women and children.
I don't know if you're talking to me, because you're looking very stupid by confusing me with someone else.
Thank you for the insult.
Fúck you very much.

Mr. Stern elected to no longer participate in this forum rather than refrain from flooding it with automatic-rate-of-fire copy and paste stuff.
Probably for the best. What about that other account with the ad hominem attacks and profanity, @disqus… ?
Ad hominem and profanity don’t violate our guidelines.
I didn’t say they did, I asked what happened to him. His posts are gone.
Since I don't know who you're talking about, I don't know what happened to him. Describing a commenter as using ad hominem and profanity here is like saying to look for the guy wearing the Chiefs jersey at Arrowhead stadium.
Lol, the guy @disqus_fv1O8rZFYs:disqus was flooding with automatic-rate-of-fire copy and paste stuff. And I guess he was doing the same. His username started with @disqus… something.
That guy’s still here. He was posting much less frequently than Stern was, and seems to have heeded the warning that Stern ignored.
Naturally, Stern asserted (elsewhere) that he was banned for “expressing his opinion.” He wasn’t. Several other people express almost exactly the same opinions he does here. When someone posts multiple one-word or copy and paste “comments” per minute for an extended period of time, he’s not “commenting,” he’s attacking the utility of the forum by flooding it.
LOL, we all think we are being banned for expressing our opinions. I know mine are not popular…. I'm tickled pink to be here.
That was meant for @disqus_fv1O8rZFYs:disqus
There is no known holocaust survivor supporting Zionists, but all known survivors oppose the Zionists; they agree with Einstein.
Google the letter penned by prominent Jews that was printed by the New York times on December 8, 1948, signed by Professor Einstein.

MURDER OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN
Zionists and settlers are evil people, they raise their children to be evil.
In zionist Israel there are successul arabs and muslims .
What about the rest of the mid east?
Israeli Arabs don't have the same rights as other Israelis.
Not all Israelis are Zionists, there are many wonderful Israelis, but they too have been silenced. It will take a long time for the Israelis to recover and heal from this nightmare the Zionists created.
Trump has no character, principals or ethics or morals. He is a liar, a conman, he stands for money and personal power and nothing else, he is really a human basket case. The same goes for Musk, they are one of a kind.
Get ready for war NATO against NATO, Greenland/Denmark are NATO members. Shows you how deranged Trump and his neocons are. The USA is NATO's biggest enemy. It is imploding, the sooner the better.
Trump: “No terrorist force will stop American commercial and naval vessels from freely sailing the Waterways of the World.”

On Friday, 14 September 2007, ORB International, an independent polling agency located in London, published estimates of the total war casualties in Iraq since the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003. At over 1.2 million deaths (1,220,580), this estimate is the highest number published so far.
The war in Iraq was fought for Big Oil. "Of course it’s about oil – we can’t really deny that," said Gen. John Abizaid, former head of U.S. Central Command and Military Operations in Iraq, in 2007.

So said Trump, the belligerent peace-nick.
If the Houthis had something useful to bomb, Biden and Co would have bombed it already … you're just killing innocents and bouncing rubble at this point.
They’re attacking blind targets just like Biden was…!
It would be “it’s not working “ all over again…! Trump Version…!
Since there has been little or no details how do you know that they are attacking blind targets?
Caliman obviously doesn't know the mentality of Muslims either.
You mean me…?! It seems you mixed up the two men…!
Biden himself said that the bombing hadn't stopped Ansarallah, and wouldn't stop them, but that it was going to continue anyway. He apparently had no reasoning why, just that it was.
Thirteen people were killed in US strikes on Yemen, the Houthi rebels stated. An unfolding US military campaign of strikes against the Yemeni group could last days and maybe weeks, a US official told the Reuters news agency.
The Houthis called the US strikes on Yemen “blatant aggression”, which “encourage the Israeli enemy entity to continue its unjust siege on Gaza”.
Al Jazeera Arabic reported that Israeli forces are fighting Palestinian youths in the Fawwar camp, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
Three Palestinians, including a child, were killed by Israeli gunfire and drone strikes this evening in the town of Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip and in the village of Juhor ad-Dik in central Gaza.
This followed an Israeli attack on the same area that killed at least nine people.
Gaza’s media office said the killings mark 150 Palestinians dead since the start of the truce in January.
A Lebanese citizen was killed in an Israeli air strike on a vehicle in the town of Borj al-Mloukin, Lebanon’s Health Ministry said.

The peace president showing his true face…!
So, is this what a senile 78 year old president looks like?
No, this is what a Neocon administration looks like. Meet the new Neocon administration, same as the old one.
Americans appear to prefer them, it's our seventh one in the last 45 years. (Clinton wasn't really a neo-con, just a con.)
The public is being manipulated by the ruling elite, the people who pick the candidates we may vote for. They did it in Europe too, placing paid for American stooges in power. How else could Western democracies be such a wasteland? It is treason to govern against the best interests of their nation. They know what they are doing. Merz in Germany was the former CEO of BlackRock for Germany and Europe. Nine out of the 10 richest investors of Rheinmetall are Americans.
Yes, but now they have a dictator as their boss and it makes it far easier to go on killing and taking over other countries.
Starting at home, look at the bloodbath here at home, what they do to thousands of American families.
They will replace fired management with more like them. It looks like the execution of a government coup, not silent and in the open for all of us to see.
Where is the Prisoner…?!
Where is Uncle_Sapien? Uncle_Sapien writes as a member of a Satan club, as he explains to me in another post.
Uncle Sapien hasn't been screaming that Trump has said he WON'T attack the Houthis and that Trump chastised Biden for attacking the Houthis. That would be The Prisoner.
Maybe Trump did something the Prisoner finally disagreed with?
Very few details are available on the strikes. Until more details are released I'm don't know if this is just a "slap on wrist" that Biden liked to give them or is this a serious attack meant to stop them from attacking shipping.

So what the Israelis and Americans can't be trusted, it is a war zone and they know it.
The Lusitania case in 1915, we now know more.
" What’s more, as secret documents and evidence gathered at the wreck site would later show, Lusitania had 4.2 million rounds of rifle ammunition, 1,250 cases of shrapnel shells and 18 cases of non-explosive fuses hidden away in its cargo hold, bound for the Western Front."
Using an AI engine to search for a response to a comment is a waste of time.
A "serious attack" isn't going to stop them. They're doing what they are because they believe in what they are doing.
The Houthis in Yemen just recently warned that they would again begin attacking shipping in the Red Sea if Israel continued using famine and starvation as political weapons against the civilians in Gaza.
Thus the bombing. No one gets to interfere with our massacres of civilians!
Houthis did shoot down a $30 million RQ-9 drown about 10 days ago and issued threats recently. Now they are paying the price for that decision. Maybe the Houthis should not shoot down US planes and not get involved in a war that has nothing to do with them.
https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/menasource/houthi-strikes-on-us-mq9-reaper-drones/
Appreciate the US excuse for this attack, but do you not have issues with this as a 'casus belli'?
I mean attacking the Houthies on account of their attacks on shipping in international waters, seems a much better reason, attacking them because they shot down a RQ-9 that was violating their airspace…
I mean the US did not attack let alone ask the Russians for recompense for downing a similarly expensive drone that was flying in international airspace over the black sea.
In the Russia case it was clear from the video that Russian pilot did not intend to knock down the the plane. He was harassing the drone and got too close. Biden of course did not response as usual. He should have inform Russia that any of their planes that comes to within a 100 meters of US aircraft or a 1000 meters of a US ship will be targeted.
If you ask pilots the term used is danger close and they all know that the wash from the plane flying in front of the drone is very likely to cause it to 'fail'.
This was a deliberate attack – had it been a civilian plane there would have been no doubt – we now tr to maintain deniability because it was a drone and no one was killed – but this was an attack.
I find it amusing you say those things like the US has a right to enable a massacre of the Palestinians in Gaza on the other side of the planet. But those bad Houthi's are sticking their nose where it doesn't belong by trying to stop that massacre occurring in their back yard.
Amusing mixed with depressing. Forget about our morality, but what the hell happened to our collective IQ?
Brainwashing from both sides.
It has become a wasteland.
When the Gaza war started, Biden issued a warning for others not to join Gaza in attacking Israel. The Houthis chose not to follow Biden's advice. Like Hizballah, the Houthis are finding out it cost to join a war.
I don't give a rat's ass what Biden said. That doesn't change what I said. One side backs a genocide, and one side is trying to stop a genocide. The fact that Biden enabled the genocide isn't something you should be repeating as if it makes bombing the Houthis justified
Biden did not speak in the best interest of the Houthis, he was supporting the Zionists and their massacre of Palestinian women and children, including infants and toddlers. That was evil pure, tax payer paid evil.
Yemen as a Contracting Party to the Genocide Convention has obligations defined in Article 1 of the treaty.
Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide
The Yemenis have stated their actions are being taken in accordance with Article 1.
Well they had every right to shoot down the drone as far as I ca see, but attacking civil shipping is not ok.
How do you see adding more innocent civilian victims as valid response to a genocide – it is not as if they have been very selective about the ships they have attacked.
It is called collateral damage when we do it, like turning Gaza to dust, civilians, genocide, is collateral damage or not?
No, when the US attacks a ship – the dead sailors are not classified as collateral damage – probably only because they could not get away with that term for killing the only people in the target area being neither enemy nor fighters (or in this case transporting necessarily contraband).
It is true for strikes on land targets, though I believe the term now is enemy combatants (though it could be women and kids or as in some cases wedding parties).
If these were shipments for Israel (preferably military ones) then you could have a point – but as it stands I doubt it.
The Lusitania incident. We now know the truth one century later.
"What’s more, as secret documents and evidence gathered at the wreck site would later show, Lusitania had 4.2 million rounds of rifle ammunition, 1,250 cases of shrapnel shells and 18 cases of non-explosive fuses hidden away in its cargo hold, bound for the Western Front."
Is it your contention that ships attacked at random are all carrying contraband to Israel???
The issue here is that the Houthi attack ships without any inspection going through international waters without indication that they are heading for Israel.
This hurts the exporting countries and Egypt more than it hurts the US and also more than it hurts Israel.
It may hurt some European economies but those are the ones already voting for peace in Gaze:
Only 9 nations voted against demanding Israel granting a ceasefire, of those only Czechia and Hungary (and Israel) at the other endo of the trade route the Houthis attacks.
https://press.un.org/en/2024/ga12667.doc.htm
So just what is it that you expect they will achieve by attacking random civilian sailors?
The problem is the lawlessness and deceptions the Houthis have to deal with that means shoot first and ask questions later. Deception and lies do have a price.
Who is speaking up against the deliberate war crimes the Israelis are perpetrating against Palestinians including babies and toddlers. We have no tears left for sadistic perpetrators like snipers shooting children in the heads, denying food, water, medical care and shelter. Sorry, I have no sympathy for the Israelis.
Yes the argument of the underdog having to use whatever means it has – I pretty much understand this argument, but to justify strikes ideally they should hit some bad guys every now and then.
By my count they have attacked about 90 ships (from wiki) and of those only 5 were US flagged – those quite likely were going to Israel. 4 of those were unharmed.
Sure but should it not be the US/Israel who paid that price – why alienate the countries that support the Palestinians?
Several EU countries have been very outspoken in their support of the Palestinians the Norwegians prominent among these.
Nor do I, only the Houthis are not attacking the Israelis they are attacking mostly European destination shipping.
The US has undermined the UN, the members are being extorted and pressured to vote in the US interests, the USA vetoes all critic on Israel regardless of crime, even the obvious genocide in Gaza.
NO CREDIBILITY left for a rogue nation state like the USA.
Even so the US had only Hungary and Czechia of the European states voting with it – clearly demonstrating that it does not control the others – not as much as you imply at least.
Yup we pretty much agree on that.
The USA is extorting nations with the threat of sanctions, destruction of their economies and societies to get them to vote their way at the UN. The US has become a publicly known criminal terrorist nation. It does take courage to tell the truth, but that is what it is. Two nuclear powers attacking a defenseless population in Gaza, destroying the people and the land for now more than a year, and they have not won, Hamas is still resisting the mad Israeli/American dogs on the lose. The Houthis can’t take chances, they are dealing with lawless Western powers who show no mercy for the Palestinians, not even for babies and toddlers. Don’t cry me a river, I have no empathy for the poor ruthless Israelis and their supporters.
I know they do, but did not work for most of EU except Hungary and Czechia. So currently the US does not have the support of most of the countries importing most of the goods aboard the ships being attacked.
Well it does not take that much courage to say it from where I live – we have at least that much freedom of speech.
It used to be OK to say it also in the US but under Trump perhaps not so much any longer.
That is exactly the problem – they are attacking mostly third nations – not in support of neither the US nor Israel.
Nor do I attack the Hungarians all you want but attacking the Norwegians – how does that make life harder for the Israelis or their supporters in the US???
Hungary and Czechia, I think they were the only votes NOT supporting the USA.
The Houthis actively support the Palestinian people as we actively support the Israelis and Ukrainians, who are we to point the fingers at others?
Most of the Western Democracies are treasonous, they are acting against their nations best interests, that is so obvious and points to corruption. It is no coincidence that all of them at once voted for criminals to govern them, corruption is more likely than fair elections.
Hungary and Czechia voted with the US – are you completely ignorant of the votes?
https://undispatch.com/here-is-where-every-country-now-stands-on-a-ceasefire-in-gaza/
How did Norway support Israel? Was that by recognizing Palestine as a state?
https://www.regjeringen.no/en/aktuelt/norway-recognises-palestine-as-a-state/id3040194/
We do support the Ukrainians but then they were attacked like the Gazans by a larger and nuclear armed neighbor.
Which of the recent Swedish, Danish or Norwegian governments have been treasonous or corrupt?
When have they acted against their populations best interests and why have they won elections based on these actions?
You do know that recognizing Palestine as a state is based on international law. Western democracies are corrupt with a few exceptions like Hungary. The others are serving the US/ISRAELI interests, they are either extorted or bribed or both, they are openly throwing their nations under the bus. The current German government would never have been elected, they are openly serving the occupier the USA. The CIA and MI6 are well trained and funded to do regime changes. And pay attention to the belligerent Trump talk. The USA needs Greenland for security, and they will get it one way or other, he said, the US is entitled to take whatever suits them, like the Panama Canal, Canada, and the American Gulf and the Monroe Doctrine and Greenland, they are entitled to rule the blue planet even if they have to bomb the planet until hell freezes over.
Yes I do, only most of the European countries had not done so before the Israeli's started their genocide in Gaza – then Spain, Norway Ireland and Sweden did – and their reward was to have Houthis attack their shipping.
Hungary is the most corrupt country in EU:
https://tradingeconomics.com/country-list/corruption-index?continent=europe
So Hungary and Czechia voting with the US while all the rest of the EU voted against – leads you to the reverse conclusion – how Orwellian of you.
The current German Government was elected after Trump entered the White House and they are in direct opposition to the Trump administration – what papers do you read, or where do you get your information???
And yet they completely failed in most of Europe – Or has it escaped your attention that Trump is pro Orban and thus in conflict with basically all other EU governments?
Yes and now his government is best friends with the Russian government.
I grew up in Europe when Europe had real statesmen and so did the USA, they were not perfect but they had a sense of responsibility and service for their nation.
I think that the elections in the larger nations in Europe are as rigged as here in the USA.
We should not forget that the EU has a big military industrial complex too. In fact out of the 10 richest Rheinmetall shareholders nine are Americans, actually Americans own Rheinmetall, Germany’s biggest
weapons producer.
Merz, the potential new German chancellor is a former CEO of BlackRock for Germany and Europe.
BTW, politics makes strange bed fellows.
JFK was the last US president able to make a speech worth listening too. Now we have public officials unable to give a coherent answer to any question, all they can say is to repeating bumper sticker election slogans, dishonest, unconnected thoughtless BS.
I could see how elections in the US (and in UK) could be 'rigged', I cannot see how that would work in most of the other large EU countries with PR systems.
Could you elaborate on how you imagine 'they' would rig elections in e.g. France or Germany?
You've tried this one before and I told you that the 10 richest shareholders in Rheinmetall holds no where enough shares to be a controlling group.
https://ir.rheinmetall.com/investor-relations/share/shareholder-structure/
You really should check some of the 'facts' you are told – the 10 richest shareholders can maximum hold 27% of the Rheinmetall shares – but they do not even hold that much.
Yes he left the position in about 2020 – so while Germany was still very friendly with Russia.
Well if you only listen to the leaders of very large nations, otherwise we have had e.g. Oluf Palme the Swedish PM – even you should know about him.
And we will now get a second chance as European politicians again get to be in a position to actually shape events.
The issue being that they have for a long while been care takers or managers of countries very much being beholden to US or other large players' policies.
This is just a waste of time, your mind is made up and you know where I stand. BASTA, enough of that.
What you believe is not my business.
Yes it does seem to be a waste of time – my mind is made up attacking innocent civilians whether they are Palestinians or sailors from the third world transporting goods to states that are against the Israeli war in Gaza is bad and evil.
They are possible false flag ships, the Houthis don’t take chances, civilians can be used for human shields, it happens all the time in Gaza. But that is collateral damage like killing babies and toddlers, and children.
I'm sorry no these are not false flag ships – we know very well what each ship is.
There are not enough warships or marines in the area as it is – proposing that 'they' are manning ships (to do what exactly) and are thus legitimate targets is absurd.
So no killing mostly underpaid sailors from the third world does nothing to neither change attitudes towards Gaza in favor of the Palestinians nor to put pressure on the US or Israel to end their actions.
If the actions were to some degree hurting the US or Israel then you might have a point – as it stands it is the Chinese and the far eastern trade partners of the Europeans (and the Europeans themselves) who bears the lion share of the costs.
As you ma have observed Trump is only too happy about this – and it gives him an excuse to apply pressure in Iran.
How you cab see killing innocent civilians to achieve the goal of your opponents as collateral damage I do not understand.
To the contrary, the Yemini are interfering with Israeli trade, not other though many shippers avoid the insurance risk entirely.
From following Ansarallah what I see is 4 crew members have died in it’s 17 months of Red Sea operations and not one through it's actions in Israel. You want to compare that to the 180K dead Lancet estimates Israel and it's complicit western accomplices have delivered?
The issue being that the Yemini are not attacking Israeli trade but just about any trade.
I'm not comparing this to the genocide by the Israeli's on Gaza – there is no way the two comes even close to being equal in any sense.
It is not (only) about the loss of innocent civilians either – it is about the indiscriminate nature of the attacks.
Attacking civilians, cannot be excused by others having attacked civilians in a war far away.
But tell me how did we in the west become complicit in Israel's genocide?
If we who have voted for peace, are complicit is it your argument that all who have not killed some random civilian are also complicit?
It is a war zone and collateral damage should be expected, it happens to women and children when civilian targets get bombed, than it is called collateral damage even if it is genocide.
No the waters beyond the territorial waters of Yemen are not a war zone and has AFAIK not been declared to be so.
When you attack a ship calling any of the victims collateral can only be justified if the ship in question is a ship carrying goods to/for a party to a war.
The US and Israel break every law there is, the Houthis are dealing with lawless, nuclear armed terrorist states which can't be trusted to abide by international laws. They are baby killers. One could call it payback.
There was the sinking of the Lusitania a luxury liner with more than 1000 passengers killed, we now know, a century later, they were human shields to transport weapons, the Germans were right.
Yes, but does that make attacking shipping to say Spain, Portugal or Ireland is OK? I'm not seeing the connection could you explain?
Sure – but they were attacking a ship they knew were transporting people and as you point out stuff to the UK and they were in a war with the UK.
The Houthis are attacking random shipping none (or next to none) of which is going to the US and not a lot of which is going to Israel – I'm not seeing the parallel to the Lusitania.
Tell that the Israelis and Americans and to justify genocide first and all the war crimes like torture and all the other war crimes they are committing, including the rape of men, women, and children.
Now how would that work?
In much of Europe there has been a very negative attitude towards Israel's genocidal war in Gaza.
The opposition (and the Israeli government) have claimed that Hammas is not to trusted and cannot make peace.
So how do you think the Houthis attacking shipping that has no connection to Israel will affect public opinion?
I'm still very much against Israel and what they are doing, but what the Houthis do makes it more difficult not easier to persuade others that Israel is the main culprit!
For the moment what Trump does, do make it a bit easier though.
You make no sense at all, there is a negative attitude and growing to the Israelis all based on what the Israelis are doing. They are not hiding their crime of genocide of the Palestinians, including women and children, their brutality knows no limits. They deserve what they get, the Zionists are simply evil.
There is in much of Europe – the Houthi actions is not helping that attitude at all – that is what I'm saying – how is that not clear?
Yes a point we agree on – what we seem to disagree on is how the Houthi striking at the friends of Palestine makes things worse for Israel!
When people get punched in the face how do you think they should respond, just take it lying down? I would say the Americans make the Israeli war crimes possible, it is not helping to improve the attitude about the Israelis and Netanyahu. It is payback time. What difference is there when the USA /NATO fund the Ukrainians? Would you agree that it is the same when the USA supports Israel that it makes things worse for Israel and the USA?
Europeans have to make their own moral judgement, Israelis are being judged by their actions, genocide is a war crime, bombing civilians is a war crime. Only the Israelis can change that by stopping the war crimes like killing of women and children, you know what Gaza looks like, or not? You also know that Gaza is densely populated there are no warnings of air-raids and even if, there are no bomb shelters and no air-defense. Food, water and real medical care have been destroyed, even children get amputated without anesthetics. How inhumane and brutal must it be before people see and admit a most brutal genocide is done in front of their eyes? Even the criminal Biden administration had the audacity to say, they know of no genocide evidence in Gaza.
They should hit back and I would support them, you know like I do the Ukrainians and the Palestinians.
So now that the Houthis are hitting us in the face I have a harder time convincing some of my compatriots that we should not hit back – you know because this was the Houthis hitting us in the face without us fighting them or the Palestinians.
I'm a European we are not supporting neither the Israeli government nor the US one – we are actually in a trade war with the US right now.
Well the Russians attacked Ukraine first. Is it now your contention that the Houthis are hitting the Europeans in the face because they support the Ukrainians against the Russians doing to them what the Israelis do to Gaza?
I have a hard time seeing what the US is doing for Israel as harming the Israelis – could you explain how you see it as harming Israel?
That is exactly the moral judgement the Europeans made – or have you forgotten that the Court in Hague condemned Netanyahu?
https://www.icc-cpi.int/news/situation-state-palestine-icc-pre-trial-chamber-i-rejects-state-israels-challenges
Do you actually read what I write? I only ask because you keep arguing points I have already made myself – i.e. that what the Israelis are doing is genocide etc.
Have you visited Palestine? Only asking because I actually have.
For different reasons and by choice the US supports Ukraine against Russia and Israeli Zionists against Palestinians. US/NATO has been used aggressively to serve US interest, at no time did NATO act on paragraph 5 defending a NATO member. NATO members supported the Iraq war, they are funding the de facto NATO member Ukraine against Russia, supported the war against non NATO member Afghanistan, as I remember they also helped fund Gulf War one. Russia never threatened Europe, not in 1948 when NATO WAS CREATED and Russia was on its knees after losing some 20 million people and the the destructions of a war fought on their homeland.
Where did the Houthis hit Europeans in the face? American Navy is all over the straits, and Americans with Arabs have bombed Yemen for a long time, they know what getting being bombed feels like.
They are the citizens of the region, what are Americans doing there? Maybe they got confused with Greenland as Trump said, they need Greenland for security reasons.
The US could stop the genocide in Gaza and the WB instead of providing the bombs to kill civilians. Israel and the US reputation has been flushed down the crapper.
Frankly, I can’t see were I argued about anything with you. You pasted excerpts, there maybe differences in nuance but not basic facts.
I do think that it is stupid for Europeans to go on fighting a lost cause and end up like another Ukraine, in ruins and under the bus for nothing. The EU IS BREAKING APART, it needs massive reform and NATO is imploding, the pipeline sabotage is not forgotten, and the Ukraine disaster does not help. Europe much like the USA needs statesmen with character, integrity, and COMMON SENSE.
Wrong NATO acted on article 5 after 911 – do try to check your 'facts', Trump just lies.
The fact that NATO has otherwise not act is down to it being so good at its main objective i.e. deterring attacks on its members.
You could equally easily say it was UN members – implying that NATO is involved here and complicit as an organization is plainly absurd.
Germany and the US are in UN together that does not make a German responsible for what the US does.
Yes that part is at least partially true – as there is some coordination via NATO, but again Hungary is not any part of this so…
That was (wrong as it was) an article 5 attack and (in my view shameful) occupation of a state that had housed an organization which had attacked the US.
Again guilt by association – the Gulf War one was conducted by a coalition of the willing not NATO.
In 1949 (when NATO was founded) Russia occupied: Poland Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia and East Germany.
You'll have a hard time convincing any European then or now that Russia was and is not a threat.
E.g. when they hit Norwegian shipping or any shipment going to any of the friends of Palestine.
They could attack US or Israeli shipping all day long without me even bothering to complain.
Again preaching to the choir.
The 'nuance' is that I know that the Houthis are attacking mainly shipments to Europe – hurting the countries in trade conflict with the US making them more dependent on the US – you seem oblivious to this sad fact.
You think the Russians are going to attack us – you just wrote 'Russia never threatened Europe' now you are indicating that the Russians are very much a threat.
NATO's main problem is that Trump has not left it yet – until he does having the US inside working for Putin is a problem.
EU always needs reform and is in a near constant process of reforming – their main problem is their agricultural policy and it has been so since at least the 1970'ties.
It breaking apart is a possibility but not one that will solve anything for neither its members nor any of its trade partners.
Well if you want a statesman who will accept that borders are not sacred (the new world order Putin wants) then you will not get him/her elected without rigging the elections, because that line has very sparse support in Europe.
Actually they have been selective, and impact to shipping is less than claimed by the western press corpse. In 2020 19,000 ships passed through the Suez Canal, in 2024 there were 13,200. If your ship isn't destined for Israel or belong to one of the countries gratuitously attacking Yemen the primary problem is the inflated cost of insurance.
2020 was the year of COVID not a good year to use to compare with.
The problem is higher costs and more pollution, less trade and a poorer Egypt.
Ships destined for Israel have the same options as ships destined for Greece – Greece is not attacking Yemen.
And ships bound for Greece which don’t belong to the combatants can pass through unmolested by Yemen (the US may choose to board and pirate their cargo if it’s outbound from somewhere they don’t like.) If you prefer a different year then there were 18,000 ships using the Suez Canal in 2018 and 17,000 in 2016. 2024 was the lowest since 2002, but not dramatically lower. Since Israel returned control of the Canal to Egypt in 1982 traffic has fluctuated between 13,000 and 26,000.
That is kind of the point – they can't – the Yeminis do not inspect the ships before attacking.
Not sure it is a point much worth debating as it is not pertinent to the question as to if it is OK or not to attack civilian shipping, but the effect is supposedly about 300 ships less per week.
https://public.axsmarine.com/blog/nearly-300-less-ships-through-suez-canal-through-red-sea-crisis
Ships register their routes and cargoes well before leaving port, and report their location regularly. There’s a central clearinghouse of that information for the insurance industry. This is one:
https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:-47.3/centery:25.2/zoom:4
This is a better source than I’ve used in the past, it even shows traffic on the Amazon and the Great Lakes. I’ll have to remember it.
Using such sources find me just a few of the about 80 (non US) ships the Houthis have attacked which were registered with a destination of Israel or the US.
Looking at the map few if any have registered destination and even fewer (I did not find one) with the destination of Israel.
Yeah, looking deeper I found that while it’s a nicer interface than I’ve used before the info isn’t as complete.
I think among others neither ships destined for customers of Russians products nor those destined for Israel would declare their destination – there may be many other destinations that the shipping agents would rather not disclose – if for no other reason then on account of safety.
Nice try by the Houthis. The problem with their statement is that they fired missiles at Israel very early in the war when the Gaza losses were small and word "genocide" was not being used.
Bullshit.
Stop the whining, the Israelis get kicked in their cojones because they kicked the others first. If the kitchen is too hot, get out. Stop the God damned whining because they kicked back and hurt you. What do you expect?
We should hope they shoot down some more, every one if possible, to teach the American aggressors that their actions come with a price.
So you are hoping that the Houthis keep trading the lives of 30 or more people just to shoot down a drone. Not to mention damage to their systems.
How many Palestinian women and children waiting to get a piece of bread are killed by the Israelis? How much Israeli evil do you notice and deny?
What is the purpose of a drone? Why should they not shoot down the drone? Is it ok to shoot down airplanes on bombing missions?
You make me want to cry when you recount the terrible damage to the poor, innocent American aggressors.
All the Americans have to do is simply take their a** home, who forced them to fight the Houthis?
Common sense tells me the Houthis are right, what does the war have to do with Americans, it is not their front yard, that is thousands of miles away from the Houthis' yard.
Ami go home, you are in a war that is none of your business.
What a joke, they dare fight back. Who do they think they are?
How many people and much destruction did the glorious Americans bring to the ME?
TIM, WHAT AN IDIOTIC STATEMENT YOU MADE.
WHAT BUSINESS DOES THE US HAVE IN THE ME?
HOW MANY PEOPLE AND HOW MUCH DESTRUCTION HAS THE US BROUGHT TO THE ME?
Take a look at Gaza, the ruling elite in Washington is a shame FOR ALL OF US, and we should hide under the biggest stones we can find. They made us all drown in blood not only in the ME.
THEY LEAVE A TRAIL OF BLOOD WHERE EVER THEY GO, THEY ARE GREEDY, DERANGED S*O*Bs.
I choose some quotes from the Qu'ran to describe the mentality of Muslims:
2.190 "Fight in the cause of Allah ˹only˺ against those who wage war against you, but do not exceed the limits.1 Allah does not like transgressors."
2.191 "Kill them wherever you come upon them1 and drive them out of the places from which they have driven you out. For persecution2 is far worse than killing. And do not fight them at the Sacred Mosque unless they attack you there. If they do so, then fight them—that is the reward of the disbelievers."
2.193 "Fight against them ˹if they persecute you˺ until there is no more persecution, and ˹your˺ devotion will be to Allah ˹alone˺. If they stop ˹persecuting you˺, let there be no hostility except against the aggressors."

https://quran.com/22:78/tafsirs/en-tafsir-maarif-ul-quran "And struggle for (seeking the pleasure of) Allah, a struggle that is due to him – 22:78) The words جِھَاد – (jihad) and مُجَاھِدہ (mujahadah) mean to exert one's utmost effort to achieve an objective and to take pains for it. (That is why the word is translated above as 'struggle' )."

Sounds much like the bible, and or Talmud.
If you're at war with one of the poorest countries in the world because they are defending a people being occupied, blockaded and starved, know that such absurdities have consequences for your sanity, dignity and standing in the world.
That goes without saying…!
For normal common sense people that is true. But we are ruled by deranged oligarchs in complete control of government, see Musk, an idiot on the lose controlled by another i.e. deranged man on the lose.
The deranged oligarchs would eventually disappear because of the consequences of their actions…!
They will be made to disappear and that is always bloody, i.e. the French and Russian revolutions.
Spilling Blood is equivalent to Flowing Freedom…!
There is no perspective in this bullying stance, no empathy. The world sees it clearly and even in the US the approval ratings are going down. There is no "mandate" for this behavior.
Oh, and did I mention that the country bombing one of the poorest countries in the world is the strongest and richest?
The Donald is not a lethal weapon…. That is Mel Gibson’s domain!…
Remember Japanese internment camps? We are getting very close to camps for anyone who does not agree or go along with the regime.
What an oxymoron, a belligerent and confrontational peace maker.
Deranged people like Trump are convinced they can bomb their way to peace as they see it.
They destroyed the Ukraine de facto NATO member to make it a de jure member and the people believe it, when in reality it is all about natural resources and hegemony for the great USA.
It's worth seeing the lyrics.
Find the cost of freedom buried in the ground
Mother earth will swallow you, lay your body down
Find the cost of freedom buried in the ground
Mother earth will swallow you, lay your body down
Goodnight
This song tells you that you should never be afraid of dying because being six feet under frees you from the mortal world…!
Bathists
Khomeni followers
Bin Laden supports
Nasser followers are all untrustworthy racist criminals
LMAO!

And how much longer do you want to continue digging in old wounds? It is all water under the bridge you can't undo the past but you can work for a better future.
But maybe you are making a living digging the hole deeper.
Thta is why there is no peace .

russia has a demographic problem
The CCP has a demographic problem
The US has a gun violence problem.

Russia h as the same rate of murder as the US
and a higher rate of drug abuse
The U.S. has 120.5 guns per 100 people, the highest gun ownership in the world. Americans are 25 times more likely to be shot and killed with a gun than people in other developed nations.
Gun violence is now the leading cause of death for U.S. children and teens.
How many mass shootings occur in Russia each year? The U.S. has a mass shooting or two every day of the year.

Since yesterday, the Zionist regime has been murdering Palestinians in Gaza as well as Lebanese citizens at a rapidly increasing rate.
Stenographers working for Western media in both Lebanon and Palestine are silent.
It is reported in Danish media – are you equating US media with Western media?
Admittedly we have a 'crowding out problem' currently, with the Orange one preparing to annex Greenland and throwing the European NATO allies under the bus, plus starting a trade war.
But articles on the Israeli actions in Lebanon and Palestine still get written – is it some special thing that you think was not reported?
Ask Marandi. I just posted his tweet, word for word.
Where's your country of residence? American journalists can be fired and blacklisted for running afoul of AIPAC.
I'm living in Denmark – have family in Lithuania, Germany, England and Sweden. Our journalists are not much influenced by AIPAC.
But yes for historical reasons it has been connected with some problems speaking out against Israeli policy – though when things are so clearly out of order most do speak out.
Tell that to the Zionists. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/c2824da423f46c5b2242cf6fcc2e8e2f6bc0f7f6fb6bdf4b89e108bc1549d666.jpg

The US is going to beat the CCP and Russia
Then guess who is next up
Under Trump, the US is going down the toilet.
The CCP still has a demographic problem
The U.S. has a major demographic problem.

His face in the picture for the article is one of pure evil.
Quite a combination of evil and buffoonery. Lethal for our rights. The scrubbing of names of blacks, Hispanics and women from Arlington archives is just astounding. Any current or past men and women who served in the U.S. military, then voted for the scum should feel shame. SHAME.
You got what you wanted, right?? RIGHT??
Trump is a man without character and integrity and simple decency, he is a human basket case and so are the friends he keeps, like Musk and the people he appointed.
