Like I said,
its been a lil busy
meant to get to these a few days ago.
Houthis, assessing $500 million damage
from Israeli strikes on airport, vow response
5/7/25 2:59 pm
"Truce agreement with US won’t halt missile, drone attacks on Israel, vow Iran-backed Yemen rebels; IAF intercepts drone launched ‘from the east’
"On Tuesday the US announced it would end its bombing campaign against the Houthis who, it said, had agreed to stop attacking ships"
(US ones)
"in vital Middle East maritime routes."
"the director of the Sanaa airport, told the rebels’ Al-Masirah television on Wednesday some $500 million in losses were caused by the Israeli strikes."
“The enemy destroyed the terminals at Sanaa airport, including all equipment and devices,” he said, adding that a warehouse was also “completely leveled.”
(So?
we spent 2.3 billion?
(or there abouts)
over seven weeks or so
and the Israelis?
Take out the concrete factory?
The sea port?
And the airport in two days?
WTF,
were we doing exactly
except blowing through munitions
we are gonna need elsewhere?
If you cut off the seaport?
And the airport?
You cut them off from the world.
Seems like what we should have done first
don't ya think?)
“There are alternatives to temporarily reopen the airport, and we need a long time to rehabilitate it and restore operations,” he said.'
NOW THE IMPORTANT STUFF:
"Houthi spokesman: US truce ’embarrasses Israel’
"An unnamed spokesman for the Houthis told Al Jazeera on Wednesday that the group’s recent ceasefire agreement with the US “serves the Palestinian cause and embarrasses Israel,” as officials confirmed the deal will not halt Houthi attacks on the Jewish state."
“We will continue targeting Israeli ships until aid is delivered to Gaza,” the unnamed Houthi spokesman told Al Jazeera, saying, “We will assess any future American support for Israel and determine our position accordingly.”
(That's not exactly the
"capitulation"
that the false prophet had claimed.
).(WTF
were all those targets still doing there
for the Israelis to take out
after a 24/7,
seven week nonstop onslaught?
The only thing that makes sense is:
WE WERE PURPOSELY
BLOWING THROUGH MUNITIONS.)
"Mohammed Abdul-Salam,
the chief Houthi negotiator, told Reuters that
“the agreement does not include Israel
in any way, shape or form.”
(Were not gonna have an ally left
before things even get going
at this rate.)
"An Israeli official and a US official
separately confirmed to AP
that
the Trump administration
did not inform Jerusalem
of the deal with the Houthis
ahead of time."
(And if you dont think?
Israel will act on its own?
If it feels like it needs to?
Then you don't know
how the Israelis work.
Ref: Raid on Entebbe)
"Israel, instead, learned of the ceasefire when Trump announced it publicly during an oval Office meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney."
(Way to be there fry boy.)
Trump announces US truce with Houthis,
who say their strikes on Israel will continue
7 May 2025, 2:21 am
"President says rebel group agreed to cease attacks on US vessels, in what Omani mediator says will ensure Red Sea freedom of navigation; Israel caught off guard by announcement."
"Israeli officials told Hebrew media outlets that Washington did not give Jerusalem advance notice of the announcement, and that Israel was surprised by it."
"Oman revealed that it had mediated the ceasefire deal
under which
neither side will target the other,
including US vessels in the Red Sea
and Bab al-Mandab Strait."
(I've said it before,
you can not
just keep bombing
indiscriminately
from two different air craft carriers.
Jet fighters need fuel
and munitions.
And resupplying those two items
at sea
is an arduous process
under the best conditions.
Choppy seas,
Houthis decide to reengage
during resupply etc.
See:

Reloading Missiles and Rearming Warships At Sea
Oct 15th 2024)
"During a meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney in the Oval Office on Tuesday,
Trump said the Houthis
had informed the White House that
“they don’t want to fight anymore.”
(Projection much?
"Projection happens when someone unconsciously attributes their thoughts, feelings, or behaviors to another person. 1 For example, your partner may feel jealous in your relationship but may accuse you of being jealous. In this example, your partner is projecting their jealousy onto you."
It's kinda what toxic people do yo.)
“And I will accept their word, and we are going to stop the bombing of the Houthis effective immediately.”
(That is 100%
bat shit insanity
at this point.
It really is.)
"Trump’s administration has been negotiating trade deals with a number of countries, and has been reported to be planning a $100-billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia. Speaking to Time magazine last month, Trump also predicted Saudi-Israel normalization could come “very quickly.”"
(Newsflash:
We cant even make what we need for us!)
“As to the Houthis continuing to attack Israel — they do so at Iran’s own peril. Without Iran, the Houthis do not possess the capability to attack America, international shipping or Israel,” Graham (US Senator Lindsey Graham) wrote on X. “To my friends in Israel, do what you have to do to protect your airspace and your people. It is long past time to consider hitting Iran hard. It wouldn’t take much to put Iran out of the oil business.”
(It will not go
like we are thinking it will.
The big unknown is
Who comes in on whose side?
And when you aren't
informing your ally's
of your intentions?
Like we apparently didn't in this case?
Then who are you going to get
to be your ally?)
"Houthi attacks on commercial shipping largely ceased six months ago, though this was after many international companies rerouted their vessels to avoid the Red Sea. Attacks on Israel and other military targets had also continued in recent months."
(Gives credence to my:
The only thing that makes sense is:
WE WERE PURPOSELY
BLOWING THROUGH MUNITIONS.
assertation.
Judgement has been pronounced on this country,
and It wont be stopped.)
"The US military has said it has struck more than 1,000 targets since the start of its operation in Yemen, known as Operation Rough Rider, on March 15. The strikes, the US military said, have killed “hundreds of Houthi fighters and numerous Houthi leaders.”
(Okay so roughly seven weeks.
Lost 7 reaper drones
at a cost of 28 million each.
(196 million)
2 jet fighters lost overboard
(roughly 140 million.)
Spent a billion
during the first three weeks
of the operation
sending off alarm bells
to the Indo-pacific command.
So if we spent another
billion?
The second three weeks?
Like we did the first?
Roughly 2.3 billion for:
hitting:
"1000's of targets"
and killing:
“hundreds of Houthi fighters
and numerous Houthi leaders.'
Meanwhile it takes Israel
two days
to hit the port,
the airport,
and the concrete factory?
And the attacks on Israel
are going to continue?
Does that sound like a good
ROI
(Return on Investment)
to you?
Cause it sure don't to me.
God has given Satan
the authority
to destroy this country.
"One and all
have got to face reality now."
RNM
Trump ditched Israel with surprise Houthi truce.
That doesn’t bode well on Iran
7 May 2025, 10:13 pm
"Days after Yemeni group caused untold economic damage by hitting Ben Gurion Airport, the US president blindsided his allies; this has no doubt unsettled Jerusalem amid nuclear talks"
(Its either that.
Or that is what they want
the Iranians to think.
One of those two options.)
"Without coordinating with Israel or other allies, he announced during a White House meeting that the Houthis had agreed to stop attacking shipping lanes in the Red Sea, and said that the US would halt its attacks on the Iran-backed group."
"The Houthis, meanwhile, declared they would keep hitting Israel. As if to emphasize the point, a drone believed to have been launched from Yemen flew toward Israel early Wednesday before being intercepted by the IAF."
(So how is that ROI on that
2.3 billion working out so far?)
"If the agreement holds —
and that is an
extremely uncertain proposition —
Israel, it seems, is on its own in the fight against the Houthis."
“President Trump’s decision to halt attacks against the Houthis effectively leaves Israel alone in the campaign against the Yemeni terrorist organization,” said Danny Citrinowicz, research fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies."
(Or thats what they want interested parties to think.
But those weapons stocks?
On those two aircraft carriers
in the area?
Severely depleted.)
"Worryingly, Trump didn’t even mention the Houthis’ attacks on Israel, two days after one of their ballistic missiles struck Ben Gurion Airport, injuring several civilians and causing massive economic damage as most foreign carriers canceled their flights to the country for days and in some cases weeks."
"It is unclear what exactly was achieved by Trump’s two-month bombing campaign, which cost over $1 billion.
(It cost over a billion,
thats 1000 million,
not a hundred,
after the first three weeks.
I have already said
what was accomplished:
"The only thing that makes sense is:
WE WERE PURPOSELY
BLOWING THROUGH MUNITIONS.")
"The US president said the attacks were meant to stop Houthi strikes on ships. But the Houthis haven’t claimed an attack on a commercial ship since December 27, and the last verified attack was in November."
"The US military also lost seven Reaper drones since the expanded American attacks began in March, each costing $28 million. And it lost two F/A-18 Super Hornet fighter jets, which are worth at least $67 million each."
“We’re basically back to where we were four months ago, just with many lives lost in Yemen and after considerable expenses to the US taxpayer,” argued Wolf-Christian Paes, senior fellow at the International Institute for Strategic Studies.
“The Houthis will use this
as an opportunity to regroup and rearm,
while the US is further weakened.”
(All part of the plan people,
you might as well get used to it.
Put your faith in God
and his plan
to eradicate evil from this world
once and for all
and just roll on.
WHAT IS
YOUR BETTER OPTION?)
“The ceasefire’s artificial separation between the October 7 war and the Red Sea means that the Houthis will be able to rest, refit and attack Israel,” said Brian Carter of the American Enterprise Institute. “All while implementing the lessons they learned fighting the US Navy and preparing for new escalation against the United States and its allies that could begin at any time and for any reason.”
"He expressed his belief that
“the United States
will need to fight the Houthis again
in the future.”
(Im telling you
we are out of weapons.
We are the ones
that needed
a cease fire.)
"It’s not even clear
that hundreds of US strikes
are what caused the Houthis
to agree to a ceasefire with Washington."
"Even before the ceasefire announcement, the US campaigns were having some effect. There was a noticeable drop in Houthi attacks on civilian shipping and in total attacks starting in the summer of 2024. The recent intensified campaign took out leaders, stockpiles, and infrastructure. Resupply is becoming harder for the Houthis, and they’ve fired much of their high-end arsenal."
(Or so they want you to think etc.)
"But even facing hundreds of US strikes,
they continued shooting at US military vessels and at Israel."
"Though Israel has shown it is capable of pulling off long-range raids in Yemen, it would not be able to match the US operational tempo."
(Well?
Apparently?
We cant keep up
that tempo either.)
"And it seems
there is an intelligence gap."
(No kiddin?
Never knew.)
"Israeli jets have hit the Hodeidah port
on four separate occasions..."
(We hit 1000's of targets?
But not the port?
The airport?
Or the concrete factory?
WTF?)
"boasting about the impact on the Houthis’ economy and military every time. Against powerful foes, the Houthis have proven resilient. As in Afghanistan, Yemen’s mountainous terrain is a valuable asset to guerrilla groups facing aerial attacks."
"And over the years,
they have learned how to adapt
to aerial campaigns,
hiding key assets
or moving them underground."
(That is why I do not buy into the:
"they’ve fired much
of their high-end arsenal"
line of reasoning.)
"It appears Israel may run out of meaningful targets
before the Houthis run out of missiles."
"A poor tribal group in the desert
that almost no one had heard of 15 years ago,
the Houthis are now enjoying
unprecedented popularity
across the Muslim world
as the vanguard
of the fight against Israel."
“What better way for an otherwise despised and marginalized Shiite sect to claim what remains of the mantle of Arab nationalism and Islamic resistance than taking regular potshots at the Jews and Great Satan?” explained Hannah. “And all in service of defending Palestinian rights
and preparing to reconquer
Al Quds (Jerusalem) to boot.
It’s pure Jihadi gold.”
“If this were a different entity,
civilian casualties might be a factor,
but the Houthis seem to be relatively immune
to that,”
said Paes.
(They got what to live for
besides fighting their enemy?)
"From Yemen to Iran
Sunday’s Houthi attack imposed a steep cost on Israel,
as it led to a wave of flight cancellations."
"Still,
the most important element
in the conflict with the Houthis
is the implications
for Israel’s confrontation
with Iran."
(That really just can not be
emphasized enough.)
"Israel’s ability to strike high-value targets nearly 2,000 kilometers away is undoubtedly making leaders in Iran nervous, with Tehran only 1,500 kilometers away."
"With Israel on the sidelines, the president could suddenly announce a deal with Iran that leaves its nuclear program intact. Israel would find itself isolated,
and unlike in the Houthi case,
it would be inconceivable
that it would attack Iran
after an agreement with Trump."
(Yeah...right...sure thing.
Israel des whatever Israel does
and Trump
or anybody else
just aint gonna matter.
Not to mention:
"it would be inconceivable
that it would attack Iran
after an agreement with Trump."
Could very well be
the set up for the Iranians.
Either way?
the US and Israel
or Israel alone
will go after Irans nukes.)
"With Trump coming to the region next week,
and not planning to stop in Israel,
more surprises could be in store."
(I'd count on it.
Ive been saying
late June for an attack on Iran's nukes.
Honey says she thinks it will be late May.
TBH?
Im starting to lean toward
honeys way of thinking here lately.
Yeah I am.
She knows things I don't :-).
and Israel not covered by ceasefire
5/7/25
"A senior Houthi official has rejected US President Donald Trump's claim the Yemeni armed group "capitulated" when agreeing a ceasefire deal, saying the US "backed down" instead."
(It makes more sense than what Trump said.
It really does.)
"What changed is the American position, but our position remains firm," chief negotiator Mohammed Abdul Salam told Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV."
"The Houthis were not deterred by the deployment of Western warships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden to protect merchant vessels last year, or by multiple rounds of US strikes on military targets ordered by former President Joe Biden.'
(If you got nothing else to live for?
Best to fight your enemy.)
"On 15 March, Trump ordered an intensification of the air campaign against the Houthis and threatened that they would be "completely annihilated".
"At the end of April, the US military said it had struck more than 800 targets, including command-and-control facilities, air defence systems and advanced weapons manufacturing and storage facilities.
It also said the strikes
had killed hundreds of Houthi fighters
and "numerous Houthi leaders",
without naming them."
(I gotta explain
what that really means?)
"They say they will not be blowing up ships anymore and that's what the purpose of what we were doing."
(False prophet much?
As stated earlier
they had already stopped late last year.)
"on Sunday a Houthi missile landed near Israel's main international airport, Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion, leaving six people with minor injuries."
"The attack has prompted Israel to carry out two rounds of air strikes on what the military called "Houthi terrorist infrastructure".
"The first on Monday targeted the Red Sea port of Hudaydah, reportedly destroying docks, warehouses and the customs area. The Houthi-run government's health ministry said four people were killed."
"On Tuesday, Israeli jets bombed Yemen's main airport in Sanaa and several power stations."
1000's of targets.
7 weeks.
2.3 billion as a conservative estimate of cost.
How many power stations did we hit again?
"The only thing that makes sense is:
WE WERE PURPOSELY
BLOWING THROUGH MUNITIONS."
Cause the evil people
running this shit show?
Flat out know
this country is already done.
