The breach of the U.S. Embassy grounds in Yemen casts President Biden’s overtures to the Houthis in a bad light.

In trying to both appear forceful and not anger Iran, Washington sanctions two high-level Houthis as terrorists although it had previously removed the group’s terrorist designation.

The investigation points to Iran as the culprit. Yet Tehran denies it is supporting the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

Houthi rebels have attacked Saudi military bases and key oil holding and distribution facilities marking a major ramp up of violence.

The Biden administration is trying to issue a bold message to Iran, but it’s getting lost in translation and leading to increased violence.

If you read the tea leaves, it’s apparent that Iran is infiltrating huge swathes of the globe through proxy militias and surprising allies.

State Department: “The Houthis’ assault on Marib is the action of a group not committed to peace or to ending the war afflicting the people of Yemen.”

Weapons smuggling off the Somali coast is common, but last week the U.S. Navy seized thousands of Russian-made AK-47s, RPGs and machine guns.

POTUS seeks to pull support for offensive operations in Yemen and reverse the Trump-era decision to designate the Houthi rebels as terrorists.

Information Minister Muammar al Eryani accused the Iranian-backed Houthis, of launching the attack. The Houthis have denied responsibility. 

Just as Pearl Harbor pulled the United States into WWII, the bombing of the USS Cole plunged the U.S. into an era of asymmetric warfare.

Airwars claims that in the US airstrikes between 86-154 civilians have been killed, including between 28-32 children.
