COWARD TRUMP SUPPORTS YEMINI FORCE TOWARD HOUTHIS

It was reported that the Yemeni military and several militia factions from within Yemeni are seeking to execute a land offensive on Ansarullah (Houthis). We guess the old saying of “the enemy of my money is my friend” applies here. the Trump Administration has been bombing Ansarullah daily with a record number of strikes totaling roughly 400 since 2002 and just within the last three weeks America had dropped and estimated $200 million in bombs in Yemen along in a failed attempt to combat Ansarullah from engaging in a blockade against both American and Israeli ships in protest of Israel’s genocidal war on the people of Palestine, more specifically Gaza. With America conducting strikes in over 40 locations in Yemen over the past 3 weeks, it appears that the Trump Administration has discovered that there is no defeating Ansarullah.

 

Now in an act of desperation, America has turned to the most unlikely of allies if you can call them that and that would be the Yemeni government and other Yemeni militias and factions to execute a ground excursion against Ansarullah. This is the mark of a coward. America; with all it bravado about its military might and capabilities not only failed, like many other nations have to defeat Ansarullah, but the Trump Administration has now demonstrated its cowardice by instead of putting its own military on the ground in Yemen to back up its rhetoric are now opting to use Yemeni forces no matter the type to “get the job done”. Many people in West Asia see President Trump's actions as weak and pathetic.

 

Supporting this position is Matthew Levitt Director of Counter-Intelligence and Intelligence program at the Washington Institute located in Washington D.C. who stated the following about Iran:

 

“[they] had a big setback but at the end of the day not a single one of their proxies has been completely destroyed.”

 

Other nations such as the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia have denied that they will have no involvement in such matters, there are some that don’t believe the stance of Saudi Arabia nor the UAE as they have been known to be vassal states of America from quite some time. On top of that both the UAE and Saudi Arabia seemed to have learned from their mistake which resulted in a loss in 2015 when they attempted to militarily help the Yemeni government fight against Ansarullah in Sanaa. It was this fight that led to a civil war in the country. The reason for the fighting was because Ansarullah deemed that the Yemeni government at the time was corrupt.

 

Currently, America along with the Yemeni government are looking to push Ansarullah way for the Red Sea ports and other coastal areas. Whether or not Ansarullah is backed by Iran (which they are) is inconsequential. The situation at hand is simple. Ansarullah want the genocide against the Palestinians to stop and America and the collective west wants to resume international trade in the region again. the current Yemenis government is either being naively stupid to think that they have a chance at hoping Ansarullah will withdraw from the country or at least cease and desist their activities, or maybe the Yemenis government has folded in the face of American pressure. Either way peace, security, and stability in Yemen are not the main priority.

 

It was reported that American airstrikes have killed roughly 150 Ansarullah fighters. Sounds like a lot until you consider that there are an estimated 10,000 Ansarullah fighters and supporters in Yemen.
