The Houthis aren’t a problem that can be solved from the sea. You have to go ashore which means bringing in the Marines. We simply aren’t willing to get that involved, and honestly, nor should we.
You are naive if you think marines have a chance against Houthis in those mountains. Unlike Iraq those mountains are the most ideal terrain for guerrilla warfare imaginable
Agree. Further as the situation since the 1990s showed (1990s, not just from 2015), regional-tribal rivalries worked in such a way that limited intervention would not work. Either persuade them to change their policies or eliminate them. The Western World is neither able nor is it willing to do either. Not a coincidence why that particular region tend to be associated with conflict. There is not much of a division between military, political and civic objectives in the Western sense. If a particular tribe is involved, then the individual tribesman is involved.

The absurdity of calling the Houthis rebels is mind boggling. If you control half of the landmass of a country and have done so stably for more than a decade, most sane diplomats would consider you to be the government.

Fun fact the connection between the Yemeni People and the Persians goes back to pre islamic times. Back then the Persians wanted to stop Roman trading so they established an alliance with the Yemeni People.
An ideological (and tribal?) struggle between Jewish Yemenis (supported by Persia) and Christian Yemenis (some groups supported by Rome and others by Persia), then (following the establishment of an anti-Christian Jewish king) Christian Axumite (Ethiopian) intervention followed by a warlord of Ethiopian extraction (Abraha) who established himself during the childhood of the later Prophet of Islam, and finally direct Zoroastrian Persian intervention by Khusraw I against the Axumites. Certainly geopolitics was involved! I wonder what would have happened had Islam not unified the peninsula against both Persia and Axum.

Problem with the US with their current counter insurgency strategy is that its purely millitaristic not diplomatic collaboration and hearts and minds. Just think about it seeing foreign solders coming to your homes and arresting anyone whoes merely a suspect and than theres drone strike killing friends and family of course its going to bring support and recruitments. Each collatoral brings a batch of new recruits. Just look at all US counter insurgency in middle east. No matter how much US and Europe coalition invaded and crush insurgents only for the insurgents to come back stronger and more adapt with new strategy. Its simply far too expensive for US and Coalition to maintain presence and combat insurgents. Look at Vietname war. They used everything (like gas and weather for a example) and still lost.

lol ikr? the moment the US left Afghanistan the Taliban just took over with little to no resistance, and the Americans have left them a shit ton of advanced military equipment paid for by the US Taxpayer. the United States is one of the dumbest countries in the world
The opinion of “the American electorate” doesn’t mean much. Jeffrey Sachs pointed out that when it comes to military spending the US is little different from a military dictatorship.
"Decades of experience in Afghanistan...." Colossal failures aren't experience unless you learn from them. Vietnam, Iraq...nah, Afghanistan wasn't "experience."
The US military is a top to bottom failure and the only success the US military has has in the past 70+ years has been the vaporizing of the stolen US taxpayers income.
But it protects US (Saudi, Kuwaiti, etc.) oil (which in turn protects US dollar and US oversized budget, never mind the private profits). The USA has bet hard into this war-genocide precisely because they hope to consolidate their imperial domination of the region this way. The Yemenis were probably not factored in the plan however.
@@cubajonesie - It doesn't protect "you" (assuming you're part of the working class), it protects the whole imperial system, especially since the Nixon-Saud pact, i.e. the petrodollar scheme: oil can only be bought, until now at least, in USD, it's a fully convertible currency in "black gold", even if conversion rate fluctuates somewhat. That's why Trump ranted so loud and angrily yesterday against the collapse of the trust on the USD and how "he will solve it" (or probably not because it's precisely tariffs and sanctions what have been eroding the system since at least when the Venezuelan gold and assets were stolen under his watch). Israel was designed in old colonial times as a racist regime but it was by design the keystone to protect vs pan-Arabism and keep the Arabs divided. The USA has been fighting very hard against the remnants of pan-Arabism embodied in the Baath Party, which used to rule Iraq and still rules Syria (and also other relatable regimes like the one of Gadafi in Libya, which also threatened with gold-based pan-Africanism much as the Russian-backed Sahel countries are trying to do now in a way). It's all about "divide and loot". To the working class that works at best as "trickle down economics", which are not very real but may indeed have some small effect of increasing wealth (salaries) indirectly. It also makes housing and such more expensive, because the US economy is heavily financiarized now and those banks need to reinvest in "assets", which are often your home and mine (I'm European but Wall Street owns Europe anyhow). Barring socialism, the USA needs its Empire and Israel has been for a very long time central to it.
@@LuisAldamiz Israel doesn't have a commitment to protect the gulf countries in any way. When Iraq invaded Kuwait, the USA had to intervene themselves. The petro-dollar arrangement means USA is the direct protection of the gulf states and that's why they have military bases all over the region along with maritime presence. Israel loves for Americans to believe they are supporting them by providing some intelligence here and there evidently during the war on terror. Israel only acts to its own benefit even if it meant sabotaging AmericA's diplomatic efforts like what they are doing now attacking Iran and escalating the war despite the overwhelming desire of the US to de-escelate. America's unwavering support for Israel is due to the influence of Israeli lobbies along with the evangelicals christian zionists. The support is driven by internal politics and ideology not by logical or rational geo-political considerations while Israel's alliance with the US is driven by pragmatic, precisely calculated rationale and supported by a spectacular propaganda machine that only came to fail recently.

In March 2024, the Houthis fired five ballistic missiles at the Chinese-owned oil tanker, the M/V Huang Pu, while it was traveling in the Red Sea. The ship sustained minimal damage and a small fire, but no one was injured. The ship was able to resume its journey after issuing a distress call but not requesting assistance. The attack came despite the Houthis previously stating they would not attack Chinese ships.
As a member of the American electorate, i can confirm we are not going to the polls on this topic. We are extremely, extremely, EXTREMELY under educated on the financial cost of our foreign policy, and our political attention is entirely directed by media sources. Edit: for all the people commenting about how Americans fail in our electoral and civic duties, while true, this is true of wherever you are too. There isn't a single place in the world where the population has lived up to its responsibility to restrain government and enforce sound policy. You want Americans to live up to an expectation you don't hold for yourself. Channel your outrage into something productive, set a good example, or admit you are part of the problem and would probably act exactly the same here.
In the UK pensioners will no longer receive an uplift benefit allowance for winter fuel bills because we have a black hole in the budget that needs to be fixed, however there's a few billions available to help Ukraine of course - we've given them soo much and war still hasn't ended.
Speak for yourself. Or rather I think you are more aware than you realize and most people are aware that the US defense budget is insanely huge. And most people know that the wars in the middle east fought in the lifetimes of Millenials were not simple matters and didnt really amount to anything, thus fighting another one in Yemen, while paying for one in Ukraine and carefully watching to see what Xi does about Taiwan as the last strands of his power slip away from him and he is finally consumed by the beat he created (getting dramatic here but point is that guy is fucked), doesnt seem bright. Besides the Houthis are shooting a lot of missiles sure. Are they sinking a lot of ships? Absolutely they are not.
@@VelereonicsI don’t think that the majority of the American populous doesn’t know much about geopolitics at all. You’re a proof of that. If you think going into Iraq and Afghanistan was pointless then you truly are ignorant. Which I don’t blame you for. It’s hard to see you the crap the media pushes out on a regular basis. I mean you probably believe we went to Iraq for oil don’t you? The truth is we want into Iraq and Afghanistan to destabilize the region and put a well trained and educated(by war) battle hardened force of several thousand troops right on the border of countries that where not playing nice with American interests. You put your finger on the center of the Middle East and where do you find yourself? Iraq, and Afghanistan? Well we’re right on chinas and Russia borders along with Pakistan and Iran, which we’ve been harassing for years. Stabilize Iran and you destabilize the entire alternative oil sector for the people not wanting to deal in dollars. But for Iraq, we supplied them with WMD’s(chemical weapons not nuclear) and we needed to take care of the situation so we used the first situation available to us to invade a country unrelated to 9/11. And we stayed till 2012 and left a small fighting force there. Who knows? They might become our next Vietnam, Allie and an our next big global trade partner.

“Since america is the chief global naval power, the U.S navy must maintain a presence worldwide” Sounds like an empire to me… Edit: I was told the proper term for this is HEGEMONY. So… That’s that
There is a difference between an Empire and a Global Power. Empire; an extensive group of states or countries ruled over by a single monarch, an oligarchy, or a sovereign state.
that reminds me of the ww2 when the germans invaded our country with tanks and weapons and they were slaughtered with trashcans and thrown in wells. easy.
Thar western task force crapped their pants when they found out the Houthi's were shooting at them. It's no fun attacking someone who can and is more than willing to fight.
Ever hear the expression, “Not worth the powder to blow them away?” What really happened wasn’t an American retreat in “fear” but a US economic assessment that the Houthi aren’t worth the financial price of the bullet required to annihilate them. The US is economically independent in terms of agriculture, energy and manufacturing. It simply has no strategic interest in maintaining the safety of shipping through the Babel Mandeb. If ships go around the Cape of Good Hope instead, the added costs to shipping is insignificant to the US economy when compared to the cost of hightech ammunition required to secure the Babel Mandeb passage. It’s this simple…to the strategic and economic interests of USA, the Houthi are no more significant than a pimple on a gnat’s ass. If they want to engage in an interminable internecine civil war in Yemen, let them; they aren’t substantially hurting anyone but themselves and are only a minor annoyance to the Saudis as well as an unforeseen expense to the Egyptians. The IMF and the Gulf States will continue to provide financial resources to offset any Egyptian cash flow issues resulting from the loss of canal revenues caused by Houthi attacks on global shipping. What the Houthi in fact are is Iranian stooges who are currently being exploited to serve corrupt foreign interests which are ultimately counterproductive to their own long term best interests. When the events in Gaza eventually come to an end, regardless of what that outcome looks like, the world will return to the former status quo in which, perhaps tragically, nobody gave a rat’s ass about the Yemeni people except the Saudis who hated them. Once they cease to be of marginal utility to the Iranians, rest assured the Persians will once again abandon the Yemeni people to their own inexorable fates. To be fair, I pity the suffering people of Yemen, but thanks to their own incompetent leadership they are proving to be their own worst enemies. Tragically, nobody is actually going to be coming to save them … not the Europeans, not the Americans, not the Russians, not the Chinese, not the Turks, not the Egyptians, not the Saudis, not Al Qaeda and not even the Iranians. Apparently, the hopelessly divided people of Yemen are incapable of saving themselves. Given this circumstance, their future looks bleak indeed. Some people seem to be cursed by a combination of geography and history. The Yemeni may be just such a people but, if so, they would be well-advised to pray for peace rather than futilely insisting on perpetual jihad. Ultimately their fate isn’t in the hands of Americans, of Zionists, of the Wahabists or even of the imams of Quom. The Yemeni control their own destiny and they will have the peace and justice they deserve when and if they ever discover the collective wisdom to attain it. 🙏🏼

Yemen had 52.8 firearms per 100 people with around 14.9 million civilian firearms. They are No.2 in the most armed nation list. No army wants to face a population like that.
It also resembles Afghanistan in its tribal politics and difficult mountainous terrain. Yemenis live in abject poverty and they have much less to lose than any invader, similar to Afghanis.
not agreeing with this. i think any NATO country's army would have no problem going up against untrained civilians. they might not like how many people they're killing but it wouldn't be a challenge. also think larger guns which civilians do not have. air force bombing etc.

Your map of Yemen and the cities is extremely incorrect. A channel like Caspian Report, you'd expect some journalistic integrity and thoroughness. If you cannot get the basic cities in a map right, how can we account for anything being said? Really disappointing.
And that's why the US spends trillions on a useless military. Most are too blind to figure anything out in the real world cause they're either distracted by celebrities, football, or some other useless "wine and circus"
Maybe we should try peaceful trade and foster peaceful relations with them instead of arming and aiding their enemies? Notice they're not attacking Somalia or Egypt? Too complicated? Think about it.
That's not point - Western powers had either reduced (EU) or spread out (US) forces beyond point of sustainability. Coupled with lack of political will for decisive action, they are in point where they cost something, but achieve nothing.
And this is why we lose wars . In Vietnam after the Tet offensive the Viet Cong as a force was destroyed. Afganistan would still be in our hands of Trump had not allowed the agreement with Kazakistan allowing us to use their airbases had not expired. We had to beg Pakistan to allow us to use their airspace to extricate. We had to leave a lot of heavy equipment because Pakistan was giving us a hard time using their roads to get out. In Korea we wouldnt listen to McCarther and create an unpassable zone at the Chinese border. Nevertheless Korea was a success when you considered the original objective was to regain South Koreas territory.

You said that Russia and China often act as spoilers in the UN. I didn't know you were this biased towards the West. You're also leaving out the wider purpose of the Houthis from their perspective or the perspective of other Arabs who want to break free from imperialism.

I think the question is should the US solve the problem? The US doesnt really need this trade route. As the US becomes a larger energy exporter the blocked Red Sea makes its energy exports more attractive to Europe. Besides the US doesnt really want to win wars anymore. The USN could stop this quickly just blockading any supplies coming into Yemen, sure the world would scream, but its not like the world could do much about it if they wanted. At the end of the day I see this more a thumb in the eye of China as this threatens their exports into Europe as the PLAN does not have the capability to secure this trade route.

Dijbouti is real estate leasing company. That's a huge part of the economy. Plus, by inviting nearly every world power, they have in effect a mutual defense agreement.
When the European powers (Portugal, Holland, Britain) expanded into the Indian Ocean … the Yemeni highlands (and their Zaydi imams) and Ethiopian highlands (and their Abyssinian emperor) were always a problem. They never managed to topple them for geographic reasons, so they instead set up in the periphery to always maintain a naval presence that would protect their ships traveling east or returning with colonial plunder. Until recently, it was one of the few places in the southern Red Sea that would allow a foreign military base. This is partly because it was being leased by the French for 99 years. Now its tiny population relies on the rent gathered from those bases. Maintaining the international access of Naval imperialism is part of the reason why those states would never accept an expansion of either Yemen or Ethiopia.
They’ve tied their own hands on this game. If you can’t win without compromising on multiple fronts, you might as well be losing straight up. Save an eyeball, lose your testicles kind of thing.
“Modern warships are not built for asymmetrical warfare” …very bad design flaw Edit: I am fully convinced Washington wants the Houthis to hit/sink a US warship. They are the bait for another intervention
Well that would destabilize the region. Cause us is prob docking in some Yemeni ports if that happens and can’t imagine what Iran or proxies around Israel would do if that happened
@@trillionbones89 i doubt that too but that’s also hubris talking. To say they aren’t and to operate in those very volatile waters that is their backyard and have advanced Iranian missiles, might even have Russian advanced munitions, naval drones, etc you never know what could happen
How? The US Navy was seriously defeated by the strike against the USS Eisenhower (which had to run away for emergency repairs, no matter D.C. denies it happened at all). Nothing short of nukes can harm the Yemeni Armed Forces, they're better than the Taliban.
All these keyboard warriors. If the US actually did it, you would say they are committing genocide. The same way you would have said israel is weak if they didn't declare war on hamas after October 7. Secondly, you claim israel is winning because the US is backing them up. Imagine what would happen if the US themselves really wanted war. Learn from Iraq.
So, in short, there is an easy solution.. Israel to stop the genocide in Gaza and the Houthi's back down.. but this the most unpalatable solution to the Israel-controlled Americans even more than it is to Israel themselves
The US controlls Isreal. Heck Natenjahu or what ever his name is spelled is an American. There is an Israel lobby, but the US benefits from Israel a lot more then one might think.
What tactic? A full on ground invasion and occupation and nation building is not a tactic. That's not even strategy. That's a massive multi-agency (and international) project.
Therefore, they can't. If the consequences are limiting you, then you can't. Everybody with 300k can bet on the casino, should they? No, therefore they can't or risk too much. They should have learned from Vietnam and Afghanistan already.

The Houthis aren’t a problem that can be solved from the sea. You have to go ashore which means bringing in the Marines. We simply aren’t willing to get that involved, and honestly, nor should we.
Calculating mission as a cost from the conflict is misleading because the ships would be deployed either way
You are naive if you think marines have a chance against Houthis in those mountains. Unlike Iraq those mountains are the most ideal terrain for guerrilla warfare imaginable
Agree. Further as the situation since the 1990s showed (1990s, not just from 2015), regional-tribal rivalries worked in such a way that limited intervention would not work.
Either persuade them to change their policies or eliminate them. The Western World is neither able nor is it willing to do either.
Not a coincidence why that particular region tend to be associated with conflict. There is not much of a division between military, political and civic objectives in the Western sense. If a particular tribe is involved, then the individual tribesman is involved.

Fun fact the connection between the Yemeni People and the Persians goes back to pre islamic times.
Back then the Persians wanted to stop Roman trading so they established an alliance with the Yemeni People.
An ideological (and tribal?) struggle between Jewish Yemenis (supported by Persia) and Christian Yemenis (some groups supported by Rome and others by Persia), then (following the establishment of an anti-Christian Jewish king) Christian Axumite (Ethiopian) intervention followed by a warlord of Ethiopian extraction (Abraha) who established himself during the childhood of the later Prophet of Islam, and finally direct Zoroastrian Persian intervention by Khusraw I against the Axumites. Certainly geopolitics was involved! I wonder what would have happened had Islam not unified the peninsula against both Persia and Axum.
Since the Roman traders made it all the way to china & India doesn't look like that alliance was to successful.

TLDR; The US Navy operates on water, Houthis operate on land. There is no stopping Houthi operations without ground invasion. The end.
Problem with the US with their current counter insurgency strategy is that its purely millitaristic not diplomatic collaboration and hearts and minds. Just think about it seeing foreign solders coming to your homes and arresting anyone whoes merely a suspect and than theres drone strike killing friends and family of course its going to bring support and recruitments. Each collatoral brings a batch of new recruits.
Just look at all US counter insurgency in middle east. No matter how much US and Europe coalition invaded and crush insurgents only for the insurgents to come back stronger and more adapt with new strategy. Its simply far too expensive for US and Coalition to maintain presence and combat insurgents. Look at Vietname war. They used everything (like gas and weather for a example) and still lost.

Israel isn't a cheap friend to have.
But it protects US (Saudi, Kuwaiti, etc.) oil (which in turn protects US dollar and US oversized budget, never mind the private profits). The USA has bet hard into this war-genocide precisely because they hope to consolidate their imperial domination of the region this way. The Yemenis were probably not factored in the plan however.
Israel isn't a friend of the US. Israel is the owner of the US.
@@LuisAldamiz A lot of people, mostly from the same religion say that. But they can never explain how exactly Israel 'protects' us.
@@cubajonesie - It doesn't protect "you" (assuming you're part of the working class), it protects the whole imperial system, especially since the Nixon-Saud pact, i.e. the petrodollar scheme: oil can only be bought, until now at least, in USD, it's a fully convertible currency in "black gold", even if conversion rate fluctuates somewhat. That's why Trump ranted so loud and angrily yesterday against the collapse of the trust on the USD and how "he will solve it" (or probably not because it's precisely tariffs and sanctions what have been eroding the system since at least when the Venezuelan gold and assets were stolen under his watch).
Israel was designed in old colonial times as a racist regime but it was by design the keystone to protect vs pan-Arabism and keep the Arabs divided. The USA has been fighting very hard against the remnants of pan-Arabism embodied in the Baath Party, which used to rule Iraq and still rules Syria (and also other relatable regimes like the one of Gadafi in Libya, which also threatened with gold-based pan-Africanism much as the Russian-backed Sahel countries are trying to do now in a way). It's all about "divide and loot".
To the working class that works at best as "trickle down economics", which are not very real but may indeed have some small effect of increasing wealth (salaries) indirectly. It also makes housing and such more expensive, because the US economy is heavily financiarized now and those banks need to reinvest in "assets", which are often your home and mine (I'm European but Wall Street owns Europe anyhow). Barring socialism, the USA needs its Empire and Israel has been for a very long time central to it.
@@LuisAldamiz Israel doesn't have a commitment to protect the gulf countries in any way. When Iraq invaded Kuwait, the USA had to intervene themselves. The petro-dollar arrangement means USA is the direct protection of the gulf states and that's why they have military bases all over the region along with maritime presence. Israel loves for Americans to believe they are supporting them by providing some intelligence here and there evidently during the war on terror.
Israel only acts to its own benefit even if it meant sabotaging AmericA's diplomatic efforts like what they are doing now attacking Iran and escalating the war despite the overwhelming desire of the US to de-escelate.
America's unwavering support for Israel is due to the influence of Israeli lobbies along with the evangelicals christian zionists. The support is driven by internal politics and ideology not by logical or rational geo-political considerations while Israel's alliance with the US is driven by pragmatic, precisely calculated rationale and supported by a spectacular propaganda machine that only came to fail recently.

In March 2024, the Houthis fired five ballistic missiles at the Chinese-owned oil tanker, the M/V Huang Pu, while it was traveling in the Red Sea. The ship sustained minimal damage and a small fire, but no one was injured. The ship was able to resume its journey after issuing a distress call but not requesting assistance. The attack came despite the Houthis previously stating they would not attack Chinese ships.
Complaining is an American way of living
As a member of the American electorate, i can confirm we are not going to the polls on this topic. We are extremely, extremely, EXTREMELY under educated on the financial cost of our foreign policy, and our political attention is entirely directed by media sources.
Edit: for all the people commenting about how Americans fail in our electoral and civic duties, while true, this is true of wherever you are too. There isn't a single place in the world where the population has lived up to its responsibility to restrain government and enforce sound policy. You want Americans to live up to an expectation you don't hold for yourself. Channel your outrage into something productive, set a good example, or admit you are part of the problem and would probably act exactly the same here.
In the UK pensioners will no longer receive an uplift benefit allowance for winter fuel bills because we have a black hole in the budget that needs to be fixed, however there's a few billions available to help Ukraine of course - we've given them soo much and war still hasn't ended.
Speak for yourself. Or rather I think you are more aware than you realize and most people are aware that the US defense budget is insanely huge. And most people know that the wars in the middle east fought in the lifetimes of Millenials were not simple matters and didnt really amount to anything, thus fighting another one in Yemen, while paying for one in Ukraine and carefully watching to see what Xi does about Taiwan as the last strands of his power slip away from him and he is finally consumed by the beat he created (getting dramatic here but point is that guy is fucked), doesnt seem bright.
Besides the Houthis are shooting a lot of missiles sure. Are they sinking a lot of ships? Absolutely they are not.

Ever hear the expression, “Not worth the powder to blow them away?” What really happened wasn’t an American retreat in “fear” but a US economic assessment that the Houthi aren’t worth the financial price of the bullet required to annihilate them.
The US is economically independent in terms of agriculture, energy and manufacturing. It simply has no strategic interest in maintaining the safety of shipping through the Babel Mandeb. If ships go around the Cape of Good Hope instead, the added costs to shipping is insignificant to the US economy when compared to the cost of hightech ammunition required to secure the Babel Mandeb passage.
It’s this simple…to the strategic and economic interests of USA, the Houthi are no more significant than a pimple on a gnat’s ass. If they want to engage in an interminable internecine civil war in Yemen, let them; they aren’t substantially hurting anyone but themselves and are only a minor annoyance to the Saudis as well as an unforeseen expense to the Egyptians. The IMF and the Gulf States will continue to provide financial resources to offset any Egyptian cash flow issues resulting from the loss of canal revenues caused by Houthi attacks on global shipping.
What the Houthi in fact are is Iranian stooges who are currently being exploited to serve corrupt foreign interests which are ultimately counterproductive to their own long term best interests. When the events in Gaza eventually come to an end, regardless of what that outcome looks like, the world will return to the former status quo in which, perhaps tragically, nobody gave a rat’s ass about the Yemeni people except the Saudis who hated them. Once they cease to be of marginal utility to the Iranians, rest assured the Persians will once again abandon the Yemeni people to their own inexorable fates.
To be fair, I pity the suffering people of Yemen, but thanks to their own incompetent leadership they are proving to be their own worst enemies. Tragically, nobody is actually going to be coming to save them … not the Europeans, not the Americans, not the Russians, not the Chinese, not the Turks, not the Egyptians, not the Saudis, not Al Qaeda and not even the Iranians. Apparently, the hopelessly divided people of Yemen are incapable of saving themselves. Given this circumstance, their future looks bleak indeed.
Some people seem to be cursed by a combination of geography and history. The Yemeni may be just such a people but, if so, they would be well-advised to pray for peace rather than futilely insisting on perpetual jihad. Ultimately their fate isn’t in the hands of Americans, of Zionists, of the Wahabists or even of the imams of Quom. The Yemeni control their own destiny and they will have the peace and justice they deserve when and if they ever discover the collective wisdom to attain it. 🙏🏼

From the background information I got here is why: The Houthis arent just a navy they also have ground operations, and unless you defeat them on land you cant really get rid of them
You can't defeat them on land. US-proxy coalition (Saudia, Egypt and UAE) tried and lost already. They know they are pretty much impervious to any kind of war anyone can bring on them (except nuclear war maybe?)

At the beginning, he says "Even giants can fall".
I believe that is a bit dramatic. I would rather say "Even giants have trouble dominating at every single step of the escalation ladder".
Yeah, that seemed a bit ridiculous to say.
Entire powerful empires fell throughout history but america is special? Dont think so, empires rise and fall and anyone who thinks america isnt in a decline is delusional
"Giants thinks they're invincible stepping on others until they step on a minefield"
But they fell pretty hard in Vietnam and Afghanistan.

Your map of Yemen and the cities is extremely incorrect. A channel like Caspian Report, you'd expect some journalistic integrity and thoroughness. If you cannot get the basic cities in a map right, how can we account for anything being said? Really disappointing.
And that's why the US spends trillions on a useless military. Most are too blind to figure anything out in the real world cause they're either distracted by celebrities, football, or some other useless "wine and circus"
the fact that it seems to be a serious and objective channel doesn't mean it is not spreading propaganda.
Maybe we should try peaceful trade and foster peaceful relations with them instead of arming and aiding their enemies? Notice they're not attacking Somalia or Egypt? Too complicated? Think about it.

The narrator talked about every solution except the obvious one. Immediate ceasefire in the middle east conflict. I think everyone knows what I'm talking about.
(The reason why the US is there is because the western world depends on Saudi oil, which the Houthis were attacking for years to strengthen the economy of Iran while damaging the economy of the west world, the Gaza conflict is a comfortable excuse for Iran to ramp up the attacks. )
None of the sides want a ceasefire. No justice,...no peace.

Fun fact they just messed with the wrong person because houthis got hypersonic missiles
I think the question is should the US solve the problem? The US doesnt really need this trade route. As the US becomes a larger energy exporter the blocked Red Sea makes its energy exports more attractive to Europe.
Besides the US doesnt really want to win wars anymore. The USN could stop this quickly just blockading any supplies coming into Yemen, sure the world would scream, but its not like the world could do much about it if they wanted. At the end of the day I see this more a thumb in the eye of China as this threatens their exports into Europe as the PLAN does not have the capability to secure this trade route.

Could you point out the bias in this video?
@@OverwatchUnit The language, their "pirates" our "naval forces" etc... it feels like his whole channel antagonizes non-western forces and glorifies western ones.

Agreed. I know who his real sponsors are
There's a very clear pro-israel tone and view of his recent videos on middle Eastern issues. To a lesser extent, also pro-western.
For example portrayal of the Israel Palestine conflict is no different than any western mainstream media. The avoidance of acknowledging ICJ rulings, and avoidance of any allusion to the genocide.
@@kenny1514 Yeah, Shirvan is Azerbaijani. They are pretty chummy with Israel. However, I'm not really seeing the bias you're talking about.

I am not sure why this video stated ineptitude of the US Navy, reducing these threats are a ground war issue, the Navy just does strikes. This issue is not just a USA issue, it is an international problem that other nations / coalition needs to resolve. USA is getting out of the globalized system no matter what.

USA can't "get out" of the global system, when it's the main benefactor of it.
The rebels are deliberately targeting western shipping while avoiding attacking Chinese or Indian interests.
So it's a direct US interest to get this sorted, in conjunction with other western partners.
Otherwise, what's the point of being an US ally for the others? 🤷♂️
As the 🇺🇸 superhero 🕷 movies like to say "with greater power comes greater responsibility".

What's up with all the major power's, including the US's military bases in Djibouti on the other side of the strait?

He actually already made a video about this topic
Dijbouti is real estate leasing company. That's a huge part of the economy. Plus, by inviting nearly every world power, they have in effect a mutual defense agreement.
When the European powers (Portugal, Holland, Britain) expanded into the Indian Ocean … the Yemeni highlands (and their Zaydi imams) and Ethiopian highlands (and their Abyssinian emperor) were always a problem. They never managed to topple them for geographic reasons, so they instead set up in the periphery to always maintain a naval presence that would protect their ships traveling east or returning with colonial plunder.
Until recently, it was one of the few places in the southern Red Sea that would allow a foreign military base. This is partly because it was being leased by the French for 99 years. Now its tiny population relies on the rent gathered from those bases. Maintaining the international access of Naval imperialism is part of the reason why those states would never accept an expansion of either Yemen or Ethiopia.
because it helps them steal from these countries !!
The word "Can't" is a huge misnomer
They’ve tied their own hands on this game.
If you can’t win without compromising on multiple fronts, you might as well be losing straight up. Save an eyeball, lose your testicles kind of thing.
Gotta love the ragtag rebel group giving the largest and best equipped navies in the world fits. Reminds me of Starwars eventually the rebels won.
Not hard at all to see the parallels when you find out the creator of StarWars used the same country to draw inspiration for the empire.

“Modern warships are not built for asymmetrical warfare”
…very bad design flaw
Edit: I am fully convinced Washington wants the Houthis to hit/sink a US warship. They are the bait for another intervention
Well that would destabilize the region. Cause us is prob docking in some Yemeni ports if that happens and can’t imagine what Iran or proxies around Israel would do if that happened

@@ahrlj24 No, not quite. Much easier access if that's what you mean.
How? The US Navy was seriously defeated by the strike against the USS Eisenhower (which had to run away for emergency repairs, no matter D.C. denies it happened at all). Nothing short of nukes can harm the Yemeni Armed Forces, they're better than the Taliban.
All these keyboard warriors. If the US actually did it, you would say they are committing genocide. The same way you would have said israel is weak if they didn't declare war on hamas after October 7.
Secondly, you claim israel is winning because the US is backing them up. Imagine what would happen if the US themselves really wanted war. Learn from Iraq.
@@ahrlj24 Worse since all the major players are involved. One will drag the other along just like the last two times.
So, in short, there is an easy solution.. Israel to stop the genocide in Gaza and the Houthi's back down.. but this the most unpalatable solution to the Israel-controlled Americans even more than it is to Israel themselves
The US controlls Isreal. Heck Natenjahu or what ever his name is spelled is an American.
There is an Israel lobby, but the US benefits from Israel a lot more then one might think.
"Can't"? They could, but effective tactics would have political consequences.
What tactic? A full on ground invasion and occupation and nation building is not a tactic. That's not even strategy. That's a massive multi-agency (and international) project.
Therefore, they can't. If the consequences are limiting you, then you can't. Everybody with 300k can bet on the casino, should they? No, therefore they can't or risk too much. They should have learned from Vietnam and Afghanistan already.

Operation prosperity Guardian 😅, US really knows the art of sarcasm
All bad options but perhaps we should pull out completely and instruct that all cargo must pass around s Africa. That would put huge pressure on Egypt and Saudi Arabia to sort Yemen out otherwise Suez Canal becomes useless. It’s not worth sending countless vessels to protect that area, if Middle East wants cut off then let them have it. We’ll check back in a few decades to see if they’ve sorted their crap out and if they finally treat their citizens with basic decency. Yeah, all our imports become slightly more expensive for longer shipping but so be it. This isn’t driven by hate, but I think we need to disconnect from that area completely, no person from any middle eastern country can enter any western country and no western citizen is permitted to enter any middle eastern nation. It wouldn’t impact our lives that much, and they couldn’t be more clear about hating everything we stand for and that’s their choice. Just leave the region alone, no interaction with it at all and no travel or business whatsoever.
@@futuredisaster-k5l not anymore, there are lots of places with oil. Middle Eastern oil is not needed in the west - it’s a global market currently but it doesn’t necessarily need to be. If anything, there is so much available oil that many countries are winding down operations driven in part by their desire for getting ahead of renewable transition. Twenty or thirty years ago that was true, but there is no need to sell our souls to gain access to their oil now.
This reply omits the strong possibility of Iranian submarines torpedoing some merchant vessels en route to the Cape or other interference. The effect will virtually paralyze world trade by the inability to insure the shipping & cargo. The Houthis have even hinted at this and entry to the Mediterranean at Gibraltar. One wonders what if any plans to control this possible Iranian surge by Western & other countries?
