This bombing is unlikely to achieve any meaningful degrading of Yemeni missile and drone capabilities, but it will rally more of the global Arab and muslim street to the side of the Houthis. It also raises the risk that the Houthis, who up until now had only targeted ships linked to Israel, will expand targets to include U.S. and U.K. vessels.

@Rogue Runner you have made several good points, I hope I can address each one of them. Firstly, the Houthis are hardened, seasoned, warriors, that have been constantly bombed by the Saudis, using American weapons and ammo, so they know how to react, to these predictable strikes. They know, that the west is itching for a fight with Iran, and I think Russia, China and Iran, themselves, also know this. I wouldn't be surprised, that the Houthis, knowing that, the US and its coalition allies, would act impulsively, helped to provoke them, into launching these strikes. Their motives, may be  yet unclear, however, it would be a good strategy, if one wanted to draw the United States, into a war, where they may or may not have to employ troops, in the middle of an election year. So far, the Washington dimwits, seem to have fallen for the bait.

I don't like bullies, especially foolish, impulsive, dishonest ones, therefore, I'd obviously, like to see the underdogs, the oppressed, the righteous warriors, if one will, have a win for a change. I also think, that there are many in Iran, who know the score, who despite the odds, are perfectly willing to accept the challenge, once and for all, just to move out, from under the spectre, of the constant threat, of a looming attack and would like to once and for all, get it over with. It would not be a surprising fact if they have plans for just such a contingency. Or, I'm hoping that they do.  It wouldn't be surprising, if the Gaza operation, as horrendous as it is, is merely a pretext for both sides, to choose what's right, or what's politically expedient. We are seeing that Israel and her western allies have chosen the latter and are risking alienating the Arab and Muslim, surrounding nations, which would make the logistics of this war, wear even more heavy on them.

Israel abandoned their Gaza settlements, I think, perhaps, almost two decades ago now and I'm curious why, suddenly, why they think that they need them back. I'm not sure what the true motives are, especially between Israel and Hamas. It seems foolish, that Hamas would have struck Israel, knowing full well, how the Israelis would react. What if Hamas is being set up, just so that, there could be a wider escalation to the war, we now see festering? I think that this, is a distinct possibility and if so, the people  orchestrating it, would be very callous, calculating, murderous and just plain evil.

The whole situation, which occurred on October 7^th 2023, seems orchestrated, pre-planned and highly convenient for the collective west, especially the United States. If Hamas isn't being set up, it is a party to the suffering of the people of Gaza then. Again I don't know the truth of what is really at play here, except, that very real people are dying and being killed. That much, I think, may be true, even if I haven't witnessed the souls, leaving the lifeless bodies. If the carnage is comparable to what the glass does show, then it would be reasonable to think that people are indeed, dying. However, only those there, in the experience, actually know for sure if this is indeed playing out or, if it's all just a play in another psychological war to illicit more fears and emotions.  Also, why would Israel need thirty or, forty billion dollars to complete such a war? There is something even more nefarious at play here which eludes even the most fertile, of imaginations.

I hope my points and thoughts were clearly stated and I'm anxious to hear, just what you, also think.

I'm still waiting to find out how the IDF managed to be caught with their pants around their ankles that day. Not that I have put forth any effort to look for explanations, so maybe they are out there.

@Marshall Sutherland (Posting with Hubzilla) I haven't been looking too hard either, since I'm thousands of miles away with no assets on the ground but it seems to me, that their behaviour seemed uncharacteristically, sloppy. Apparently, we're all to believe, that an army that is constantly on alert, somehow couldn't gleam a single bit of intelligence, foretelling the upcoming events.
