Trump announces ‘decisive and powerful’ airstrikes against Houthi terrorists in Yemen<\/h3>\n

Trump blamed former President Biden’s ‘pathetically weak’ response to Houthis<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

By Andrea Margolis Fox News
\nPresident Donald Trump announced on Saturday that he has ordered airstrikes against the Houthi rebels in Yemen.<\/p>\n

In a Truth Social post, Trump wrote that he had “ordered the United States Military to launch decisive and powerful Military action against the Houthi terrorists in Yemen.”<\/p>\n

“They have waged an unrelenting campaign of piracy, violence, and terrorism against American, and other, ships, aircraft, and drones,” Trump’s post read.<\/p>\n

“Joe Biden\u2019s response was pathetically weak, so the unrestrained Houthis just kept going,” Trump continued. “It has been over a year since a U.S. flagged commercial ship safely sailed through the Suez Canal, the Red Sea, or the Gulf of Aden.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Another facet of the prior administration’s incoherent foreign policy was failing to enforce Freedom of Navigation regarding international commerce and allowing maritime acts of war against our own flagged commercial and naval vessels. There was no stated strategy, just a dangerous game of whack-a-mole with million-dollar missiles. In the last four years the US Navy has seen more action since World War 2 and countering Iran-backed Houthi attacks in the Red Sea area played a big part.
\nGame over, it seems.
