According to CCTV News, U.S. officials told Reuters on the 11th local time that the United States and the United Kingdom began to strike at Houthis-related targets in Yemen.
The United States finally can't help but do it!
American hegemony is sometimes so unreasonable, and when the United States and Western countries support Israel's attack on Gaza, they can avoid international condemnation without being reasonable. But as soon as there is a force to try to resist their actions, the United States will immediately wave the banner of morality and begin to stigmatize those acts of resistance!
The United States has already called many times before, appealed many times, stop engaging in our merchant ships, and what is the result?
On January 10, the Houthis fired 24 missiles and drones at three US warships and a British warship in one go, and Iran directly seized an American oil tanker on January 11!
Everyone knows that the United States does not want to fight, let alone fight with Iran. It's not that the Americans are good-hearted and peace-loving, but that now they have limited energy and too many fronts to deal with them at the same time. The US allies have refused to send warships to participate in the US escort operation, this time it seems that they can't bear it anymore, and if they don't do it again, the whole world will treat it as a sick cat!
There is no need to guess that it must be an airplane that has rushed over and relied on fighter planes to launch long-range precision strike munitions to carry out several rounds of air strikes to hit ground targets.
When they fought with Saudi Arabia back then, they didn't know how many rounds of air raids they had, but they were still doing their own thing, on the contrary, the Houthis have accumulated a wealth of air raid means in the process, and their weapons and equipment have not only not suffered major losses, but have become more and more advanced. I don't think such a blow from the United States will have any effect for the time being, and there are only two ways to solve the problem. It is to send ground troops into Yemen to sweep away the Houthis, but it is very likely to get bogged down in a law and order war. The second is to simply withdraw from the Red Sea and leave it alone. Otherwise, such an attack would have had an effect, but the actual effect would be limited.
But if the strikes don't work, the Houthis are still in control of the Red Sea a week later. Then the mythology of the Air Force and the mythology of the US military may be completely bankrupt, and not only will the situation of human warfare enter a new era, but the pattern of the world will also be about to change. Although I think back in Ukraine, in Gaza has gone bankrupt. But this time it's the end of the real U.S. military!
The fact that the United States and Britain have personally come to the scene is in itself an indication that the United States' ability to control the Middle East is declining.
Do you think that the United States will retreat from Afghanistan? In fact, the impact is beginning to be felt now, no one is willing to be a proxy of the United States anymore, when the United States supported al-Qaeda to fight against the water, and later supported the Islamic State, it was basically eliminated, and the Syrian rebels were suppressed, and they were held back by Russia and Bashar, and the Kurdish forces were supported, and they were rubbed by Turkey. He installed the Hadi government in Yemen, which was killed by the Houthis. There is only one Israel left, which is held back by Hamas in Gaza.
On the other hand, on the Iranian side, I have to say that Soleimani is super capable, although he was killed by the US military, but the Shiite fox that he runs continues to grow and develop, Hamas, the Houthis, and the Lebanese Allah Party......
Sit back and wait for the American GIs to end up in person, I will look down on you if you don't land!
