Uncle Sam has lost his.
The map shows the impact of the ongoing Houthi attacks on in the Rec Sea, The Houthi’s and their Iranian supporters have effectively shut down the Suez Canal. The diverted ships are shown in Orange.
Our response? We are really really mad, and if the bad guys don’t stop doing bad things we might get madder.

The Houthis will bear the responsibility of the consequences should they continue to threaten lives, the global economy, and free flow of commerce in the region’s critical waterways. We remain committed to the international rules-based order and are determined to hold malign actors accountable for unlawful seizures and attacks.
When DJT personally spoke with Baradar about our withdrawal from Afghanistan, some reports suggest Trump punctuated the deal by threatening Baradar‘s home village and his home— a war crime. This was after Trump dropped a Hellfire on Qasem Soleimani, an act Biden insisted was a war crime. But both worked. Attacks on the US stopped after Iran immediate convulsed action. That’s Backbone.Back to the Red Sea. Houthi attacks have been going on for months.
