means absolutely nothing

If the Iranians get ahold of Yemen, they will be able to harass traffic entering and exiting the Red Sea approaches to the Suez Canal.

A strategically important area. A shooting war in the Red Sea would be disastrous to the Global economy.

Policy toward Yemen will not change.

I bet Donald Rumsfeld and John McCain told you that.

How long do you expect the power Iranian Navy would be able to paralyze the Red Sea?

Probably about as much impact as they have on the Strait of Hormuz.
