Yet that’s exactly what happened and the US public are not only okay with it, but eager to repeat it again.
So now I am taking bets on how much time and money do you think the US will lose in the Middle East to achieve nothing except looking foolish in the eyes of the world.
My observation based on everyone who was cheering the US military action against Yemen and its unconditional support of Israel.
It is a hyperbolic statement. I think at least 50% of the US public opposes the operations in Yemen and the unconditional support of Israel. But without a solid public opposition, perhaps a general strike, no one is stopping the US from getting into more pointless wars.
Got it, I thought maybe I missed something that happened today specifically.
Here’s my view on the shitshow that is Earth:
I’m not cheering the attacks on Yemen but that’s a sort of fuck around and find out thing (US/UK in general, I know there has been recent Houthi drone/Israel response that seemed to be overkill). Israel on the other hand can go fuck themselves with what they are doing in Gaza. I think a lot more people are actively opposed to the Israeli response to Hamas than any US/Houthi stuff.
But wtf do I know.
Yemen’s motives are clear, and they have offered to stop their blockade if the genocide in Gaza stops. But regardless of why, or whether you believe the Yemenis are justified or not, the US is losing in Yemen.

In most cases, the U.S. is launching $2 million defense missiles to stop $2,000 Houthi drones, a discrepancy that the Yemeni rebel group has noted in its statements mocking Washington.
Come on, the US is losing? It’s barely a conflict at this point and it’s mostly shooting down Houthi attacks, right? I’m not saying the US is ‘winning’ but you’re lying to yourself if you think the US military is using all of their resources against the Houthis.
