The heroic Houthis take it to uncle satan.

Yemen’s Houthi militia has shown how a small army can take on the American Empire and win. They have shown how courage, resolve and commitment to principle can act as a force-multiplier allowing a much weaker military to ‘punch above its weight’. They’ve also shown that a few well-placed missiles in key locations on the world’s most critical shipping lanes, can send tremors across the global economy and shake the “rules-based order” to its foundations. In short, the Houthis have shown that David can bring down Goliath without breaking a sweat, provided that David maintains his perch along the Bab-al-Mandab Strait.

As Dr. Ironsides remarked the other day, no one other than weak, faithless, stupid Amerikans fears the dying GAE. And it is dying, being unable to run some gay-sounding maritime operation for a full week. All of this is a great Christmas present for the bold and the committed people of the world.
