The Houthis have got to go!

"But we can do our part. We can take the lead with the Saudis and turn Yemen into a sheet of glass. All Yemen is to Saudi Arabia is a pain in the rear. One for chance to play nice - if they screw this up - stand by for pain and suffering. I know we get tired of being the world's policemen, but somebody has got to do it. I guess it will keep being us." 

Here is a tip for the war criminal hunter, Mamdani of NYC - since you are on the hunt for more war criminals here are some you have not yet mentioned. Putin of Russia, for attacking civilians in Ukraine. The Muslims in Nigeria for the genocide against Christians. Hamas for the genocide against Israel three years ago. And now the Muslim Houthis for what they are doing to innocents in Saudi Arabia. But I guess in the eyes of the Muslim Mamdani, heinous crimes committed by other Muslims don't count.

Here is my take - the Houthis need to go. We need a coalition of the willing to go in the bomb the life out of these thugs. Not only are they going after innocents who are engaged in civilian shipping, but they are also bombing just about every airport in Saudi Arabia. Why are they doing that? Who knows. But here is my point - after the chaos that Iran has unleashed on the Strait of Hormuz, we don't need another bunch of mutts raising havoc in the Red Sea. 

My Dad told me after the first Gulf War started (Desert Storm), the Middle East has always had a war culture and always will. I think he was right. It is like playing Whack 'Em Mole - as soon as one area settles down, another one pops up. I really thought that the Houthis could read the room better. Hello? Peace might be at hand shortly with Iran. Time to lay down your arms boys, and act civilized. Otherwise, we have a whole bunch of Navy jets just sitting on carriers off your coast who could deliver you the same message in much stronger terms.

Here is what I hope the world has learned from this last fiasco in the Strait as well as the Red Sea. Be smarter next time. Get your needed supplies from sources which cannot be held hostage. Right now, diesel fuel and fertilizer are the two things which are the longer poles in the tent. It is not just the US which is suffering under higher prices - it is most civilized countries in the world. The same groups which are suffering under artificially high prices, must be the ones which will plan better for the future. Otherwise, the entire mess can happen all over again. 

But we can do our part. We can take the lead with the Saudis and turn Yemen into a sheet of glass. All Yemen is to Saudi Arabia is a pain in the rear. One for chance to play nice - if they screw this up - stand by for pain and suffering. I know we get tired of being the world's policemen, but somebody has got to do it. I guess it will keep being us.
