Yemen Civil War News and Discussion.. an evolving situation

'Dangerous moment' in Middle East, Lloyd Austin says​

The US secretary of defence is holding a news conference at the Pentagon.
Lloyd Austin says the president "will not tolerate" attacks on US troops and neither will he.
"Our team mates were killed when a one-way drone struck their living quarters," he says.
"We continue to gather the facts about this deadly attack."
He goes on to say "our team mates were killed by radical militia backed by Iran and operating inside Syria and Iraq".
Mr Austin says "this is a dangerous moment in the Middle East" but the US "will take all necessary action".
He adds: "In the aftermath of the Hamas attack on Israel terrorist groups backed by Iran and funded by Iran have tried to create even more turmoil, including the Houthis."
For context: On Sunday, three US troops were killed in a drone attack on an American base in Jordan.
The three US army reserve soldiers were assigned to the 718th Engineer Company, 926th Engineer Battalion, 926th Engineer Brigade in Fort Moore, Georgia.
Officials said that of the more than 40 wounded, most had cuts, bruises, traumatic brain injuries and similar wounds.

These aren’t Russian warships. Look I want the Houthi to stick it to the man, but the reality is their capabilities are just not there.

The US struck 10 unmanned drones in Yemen that were preparing to launch overnight, according to Central Command.

It also said a UAV ground command centre was targeted.

We've no word yet from the Houthis, and the US did not say if any fighters were killed - only that all targets were destroyed.

Central Command did not disclose the location of the targets in Yemen, which were struck at 1.30am local time.

Yesterday the Houthis said their naval forces carried out an operation targeting an "American merchant ship" in the Gulf of Aden hours after firing missiles at US Navy destroyer Gravely.

It wasn't a thing until it became one
...

Now it is playing catch up... US allowed itself to be played for an outpost.
That wound had to metastasize!
It did... it wouldn't heal till you remove the tumor itself...

But how do you perform that surgery when it is your own baby?
... who will?

At this moment the US UK and soon European navies are genocide supporter. This is what history will remember , make no mistake.

Combined western navy against two small Arab nations. What a farce. How cowardice.

Would our current western establishment fight against ANC? I think it would. Total moral degeneracy.

Words to remember...
The world masses just saw themselves hapless, spineless and worthless in front of tiny yet relentless amd organized elite who would budge at nothing!

When masses look in horror and awe... what they assumed was impossible just months ago... see their worlds shatter... when seeming opponents only play for the audience. The world people had built around them has collapsed.
Let that sink in and see how it transpires... how those who rule when exposed maintain or sue for legitimacy.

The curtain has dropped...

Given how ineffective Iranian systems fired by the Houthis have been on direct attacks on USA/UK ships - Iran would tell well to consider its next steps. The only missiles that have gotten through, were those directed at merchant ships. Everything else has been intercepted and shot down.

What about all the drones and missiles that Houthis hit the port of Eilat with? Offcourse US Navy told us all of them were intercepted but Eilat is empty of port activity and videos of explosions in it from attacks are on the internet. believing everything the US govt tells you today is so not recommended bro!

Shows how ineffective Iranian systems are against the Americans and UK. Iran would do well to calm down, and not try to fight a fight that Iranian systems cannot fight!

The US military is what is ineffective, and the evidence of that is the lack of fear that regional resistance forces have when confronting it. Iran is not yet in battle, so this is too early to speak/conclude on. US knows what a legend SHAHED-136s are though, and Iran hasn't given Russia its "best" war toys yet.
