How do sailors go missing? Did they fall off the ship?

One time heart attack

Then mild headache

This time missing

 

[MS Sandhu]

Great question, more likely the latter- simple drama for PR.

hmm

if that was true then why do Yemenis in major cities come out to protest Gaza and support their govt? Why aren't people protesting if they dont agree with the Houthi govt? Define "give a flying fuk to common peoples lives"- what Yemeni think is "giving a flying **** to common people lives" in their society is just different from what YOU think "giving a flying fuk to common people lives" means.

If Houthis cared about Yemenis they would not have launched attacks on Ships b/c they don't possess anything to counter the retaliatory strikes from US.
In their false bravado,Only Yemen's common people are going to suffer.

Why do you think Iran does not try a missile strike on israel right from its own territory ? THE ANSWER IS OBVIOUS TO ALL: YEMENIS ARE EXPENDABLE FOR THE REGIME IN TEHRAN & Yemen.

Especially in an active combat zone, it’s not like they were on shore leave. But if we look at it another way, if they were UDT / EOD or similar you could argue they got into difficult during a dive and went missing. But this statement is rather suspicious.

Or maybe an impression is being created that the adversary is stronger than believed and therefore grounds for another strike? Who knows?

We will know soon enough if another steak and lobster dinner is served to seamen on the strike group.

Exactly. No news in such an environment is ever what it appears to be. We all need to be calm and keep an open mind.

Houthi are picking unnecessary fights that bring no value to their country. Yemen is one of the least developed countries in the world with a significant humanitarian crises. Sad situation.

Houthi can threaten neighboring countries but they stand no chance against the US in a conventional showdown and war.

Yemen needs sensible leaders.

Yemen is stronger than Taliban.
Houthis are very very non material and religious at time of thinking. They do not think like you.

 

[Shawnee]

When a country is bombed by more bombs than WW1 and WW2, little more can be done with bombing.

You need to fight in the mountains like KSA allies

Thank God they don't think in this way. Materialism needs to be challenged by whatever means necessary.

what has got to do with military doctrine and assets ?

US has 65 million people with no dental healthcare so what has that got to do with the war?

the fact that Yemen have managed to hit Eilat bypassing 43 warships from 16 nations in the Red Sea including 6 x Patriot III batteries in Saudi and Jordan then bypassing the 3 x Saar 4 and 5 of the israeli Navy in the Gulf of Aqaba and then finally Israels own high altitude Patriot III, Davids Sling, Arrow and finally the Iron Dome shows that Yemen has very advanced spectrum of weapons

with each launch they are calibrating their weapons and missiles and no doubt Iran will be adjusting accordingly

if they want to hit the USN they can do it easily

They are doing whatever is in their perceived interests. They do have that right. But they will also be responsible for the consequences, just like how all other parties involved are as well.

the people of Yemen can speak for themselves. some things are more important than bringing 'economic value'.
