Austin went to the hospital before this decision was made.
They’re already here.
“We only bomb empty warehouses.”
There are a lot of dead guys who would argue with you about that.

That’s on YOUR menu, Frick; not mine.

BREAKING:
Reports of the Houthis firing off a large barrage of anti-ship missiles against US Navy vessels in the Red Sea
???
“Took long enough”
By design, minimal impact for the terrorist. Mllions of tax payer dollars for the missiles.
I predict an endless tit-for-tat all year. This administration is spineless.
US and UK launch strikes against Houthis. White House states that Pres Biden is not available because his ‘lid’ for the day was put on this afternoon. Is there anyone in charge? Other than Obama?
The oil tanker is American....
Plus the enemy have attacked US troops 130 times ...
Plus Congress doesnt get involved unless the war goes over 90 days...
Plus war have not been declared...
Its about time!
Iran should be next...
Here’s an end to your
waiting FRiend.
“On December 3, 2023, three commercial ships, including the USS Carney, were attacked by ballistic missiles fired from Houthi-controlled Yemen, according to the US military”
Though we have not declared
war on the Houthis, we’re
bound by alliances to defend
hostile actions.
“When did Congress declare war on Yemen? Or Houthis? When was an American vessel attacked?”
To defeat the Soviets the United States patrolled the global oceans and made free trade possible for everyone. The last 80 years or so has been the most peaceful and prosperous in human history. But since the Soviet Union fell the United States has been backing away from the role of maintaining peace and trade.
By blocking trade through the Suez Canal, the Houthis may cause famine and financial collapse in the more vulnerable countries. It won’t help the finances of the US and its allies either. What is America’s interest? Well, there are a lot of things that will affect us. As people starve, they tend to get on boats to South America so they can eventually get across our non-existent southern border. From there they will go on welfare. All we have to do to prevent potentially millions of people coming here to vote Democrat is bomb a few Houthis. I say, “let the bombing commence.”
“Reports of the Houthis firing off a large barrage of anti-ship missiles against US Navy vessels in the Red Sea.”
I think that was yesterday. I’ve seen nothing current on visegrad24 or anything else. Do you have a link?
Got them aspirin factories, alright!
99 Red Balloons”
You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we’ve got
Set them free at the break of dawn
‘Til one by one they were gone
Back at base bugs in the software
Flash the message: “something’s out there!”
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it’s red alert
There’s something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Where ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine Decision Street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we’ve waited for
This is it, boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine knights of the air
Ride super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone’s a Super Hero
Everyone’s a Captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It’s all over and I’m standing pretty
In this dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you, and let it go
any after strike assessment yet??? WH gave plenty of warning so casualties are probably minimal.The Houthi’s next step will be kidnapping Americans and holding them as hostages.
