Pretty amazing how people in Congress just want to give Iran a victory and the ability to control the strait of Hormuz which is a major shipping route.


Yemen does not border the Strait of Hormuz you are speaking of the Bab al Mandeb....and we control the other side with our base in Djibouti

I’m all for it. But what military support have we been providing to the Yemen war anyway? I was under the impression Trump ended military assistance to the Suadi effort I. Yemen months ago?

We need to get out of there immediately. Let Saudi Arabia handle it.

Trump is in neck deep with the Neocons and he went out his way to save MBS - and he saved MBS when it would have been easier not to.

The neocons believe SA is critical to any anti Iranian coalition, hence the support for MBS.

With Yemen. Trumps done everything Riyad has asked.

So yes, it’s his war now.

Specifically, in what material way is the United States supporting the Saudi War effort in Yemen. That is a serious question.

Can we just glass the entire Middle East and be done with it? Please?

Sure, Trump would be remembered as history's biggest monster, but think of all the headaches we'd spare ourselves in the future. I think it's worthwhile to take that for the team.

I think Trumps right to get out of both Syria and Afghanistan. The Generals would have us there for another 17 years. That’s why a civilian is in charge of the military.

Maybe simplistic but my theory is that the Democrats along with their MSM counter parts are still butthurt over Kishoggi and any support of SA they are going after. Democrats could care less about the Civil War in Yemen.

Didn’t congress just say they were going to fight Trump trying to take troops out of another country? Now they want to take troops out of different country. Damn the swamp is deep.

Theyre voting to take troops out and end material support for a war in which we have no troops or provide no material support.
