The US’s large-scale strike campaign against Houthi targets in Yemen will be “unrelenting” until the Iran-backed proxies pledge to back off US assets, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Sunday.
“The minute the Houthis say ‘we’ll stop shooting at your ships, we’ll stop shooting at your drones,’ this campaign will end, but until then, it will be unrelenting,” he told “Sunday Morning Futures” host Maria Bartiromo.
US Central Command said Saturday it had “initiated a series of operations consisting of precision strikes against Iran-backed Houthi targets across Yemen to defend American interests, deter enemies, and restore freedom of navigation.”
President Donald Trump wrote in a TRUTH Social post on Saturday that he had “ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen.”
Hegseth, on Sunday, sought to make “very clear” that the ongoing campaign is about “freedom of navigation” and “restoring deterrence.”
“An era of peace, through strength is back…” he said.

I mean, seems like a pretty reasonable response and plan to me. But I guess that’s just me. I realize a number of folks amongst us are flabbergasted by this policy.

I guess you haven't got the talking points yet.
Woke Right X is melting like a bunch of homos over Dictator Drumpf getting us into another war at the request of Da Joos.

I tried to present the thread without comment.

Hope we wipe them off the Earth but we’ve told Hamas this is their last chance multiple times.

About dam time! Wipe them out!

I get the sentiment, but we’re talking Houthis here, not Hamas. Now, how many times we’ve told this particular group of terrorists, not sure.

The Eurofags have navies and the Saudis have an air force.
They should handle it.

If America paid as much attention and money(our tax dollars)to solving our own problems instead of trying to control what happens elsewhere, we would be in a position to help others. This administration has crippled and weakened our foreign standing.

I guess it no longer pays to be a Houthi Momma.

What a dumb fricking post. The Houthis have made one of the worlds biggest shipping routes unusable from their attacks. If Biden had any balls this would have been dealt with over a year ago.
Peace through Strength is not peace through submission

I doubt we are even in the top ten when it comes to commerce, either import or export, traveling that route.

Pete has turned out to be way better than I thought he would, by a lot!
He will do a great job for the world!

They are just a few tentacles of the real monster who is Iran. Israel and the US need to turn Iran into a parkign lot.

Oh yeah? Was it dumb four years ago?

How well did the previous administration do?

I’m not even disagreeing with Hegseth, but how embarrassing must it be to be a European?
You whine about America, yet when bullets and missiles start flying, you cry for daddy.
Those shipping lanes are just as important to them and much closer.
This should’ve been handled by them long ago. But alas they are apparently ineffective yapping dogs.

I hope we have enough ordinance to make em stop. Brandon et all depleted our stockpiles so much.
I hope Pete has done an inventory from top to bottom on ordinance levels!
