Forget about the War Plan leaks - why the hell is the US Bombing Yemen?

He resigned?

No?

The party of “full responsibility” at work.

Based on tonight’s New York Times report, it looks like Yemen has been bombed, by the U.S., for twelve days in a row so far:

The U.S. military has conducted strikes against Houthi militia targets in Yemen daily since March 15, but the Pentagon has not provided details about the attacks since March 17, when it said more than 30 Houthi targets had been hit on the first day.

The U.S./UK bombing campaign ended on May 6, per Wikipedia, with a agreed ceasefire.

According to my last link, the Houthis agreed to allow U.S. shipping but said they would continue to block Israeli shipping. Since almost all cargo ships fly flags of convenience and are otherwise international, this makes little sense.

Is the Houthi maritime crisis over? Did the Trump administration even perhaps luck into a little war where the U.S. won?

The beauty of being Trump (and by extension a Trump toadie) is that you just declare victory no matter the actual outcome. For some reason, the media doesn’t call you out on it.

On the Iran bombing, I’ve seen a lot of media saying that the Iran nuclear project may have been only slightly harmed. That’s why Trump is going homophobic on CNN’s Anderson Cooper (this one I don’t want to give a link for), and otherwise blasting the media (albeit for different reasons than you are slamming the media).

But this thread is about the March-May 2025 bombing of Yemen. Are you saying that the outcome was not what I think? Then what was the outcome “the media” is failing to report? Is shipping still avoiding the area?
