Whoever is running the Biden Administration took the Houthis in Yemen off the terrorist group watch list in early 2021. “In exchange, the Houthis continued to recruit child soldiers, bomb airports, and kill civilians – they even raided the US Embassy in Yemen before the year was out.” The chaos continued until Feb of 2024 when the Bidenistas put them back on the Terror group list. Since then, Iran has provided drones and missiles, which they’ve put to use, shutting down the shipping lanes.
In other words, the Houthis are big supporters of President Joe Biden, probably because Obama’s meddling middle-eastern JV Team (ISIS) was wiped out by Trump as promised within months of taking office. If the Houthis follow the 2024 Election, Biden must be their guy. He’s good for business.
“After the expulsion of its aircraft carrier [USS Dwight D. Eisenhower from the Red Sea], America turned to involving its Saudi agent to push it into serving the Israeli enemy more than it already does. Our people’s turnout last Friday was massive and great, as millions flocked to the squares to show the world their steadfastness in support for the Palestinian people despite every agent’s will,” he said….
“Allah has humiliated the modern-day arrogant tyrant, the U.S., at the hands of our people,” he declared. “With Allah’s will, the tyranny of the U.S.’s agents will be broken, and their capabilities will be destroyed by the hands of his faithful servants.”
One report I read suggested that international shipping through the region is down nearly 80%, which begs a different question. The US Navy used to help secure the world’s trade routes, albeit as a product of America’s interests. The rest of the world was happy to benefit, but in Biden’s age of declining American influence, this erosion of projected power has proven detrimental. If power abhors a vacuum, should we expect it to be filled with Iranian-armed brigands demanding jizyah from the infidels in exchange for safe passage?
What’s next, hooligans demanding tolls to cross a bridge?
The world has, as yet, been to unembed the Houthis’ Islamofascist tick. No one seems capable of rooting them out or ending the flow of weapons from Iran. But I’d bet money that if Donald Trump wins and survives the journey back to the Oval Office, he will have resolved the Houthi problem before the end of the summer of 2025, even if half the soldiers left him in the lingering stink of a Biden family White House exit are in high heels.
The Houthis are Ridin’ with Biden or, after this unconfirmed announcement, whoever the Democrat delegates pick at the convention to replace him on the 2024 ticket. Different Democrat, same agenda.
