Yemeni Houthis have attacked the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the Red Sea. The strike was carried out in response to US airstrikes on Yemen, reports Al Jazeera and Houthi Brigadier General Yahya Saree.
“The Houthi military spokesperson said that the group has responded to the US bombing of Yemen by attacking the USS Harry S Truman with ballistic missiles and a drone,” the report said.
Yahya Saree specified that the Houthis launched 18 missiles. He also claimed that the US had carried out more than 47 airstrikes on several Yemeni provinces, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries.
The Houthis possess over plan B: flatten all Saudi oil reserves and refineries and collapse the global economy.
Ultimately it is the Houthis holding the cards here. Though most Americans do not seem to know it.
As contentious statements go, “The average american does not posess even an abstract understanding of the political and economic realities present in the mid. east” is one I wouldn’t even consider objecting to.
Fucking lmao.
