I continue to not understand the hardcore Ron Paul anti-interventionists. These terrorists have been lobbing missiles at Western ships, including US ships, for years, and yet the bleat from the Tucker Carlson Chorus is that we just need to let them blow up our ships. To do otherwise is to, as always, "risk World War III."

Remember when the neocons used to tell us that we had to bomb this country or that one or else we risk World War III? Well, the born-again paleocons now claim that we must not do anything to any terrorist country, or else we risk World War III.

I think there's an explanation for this: This isn't about being anti-interventionism, this is about being anti-Israel and... maybe more than that. Because they only seem to start squawking when we bomb someone who is bombing Israel.

The Houthis recently shot missiles at Israel's main airport, and Israel has responded by bombing Yemen's main sea port and then the main air port.

Israel counter-attacked a country that will not stop launching missiles at them, and I'm very sure this is somehow Israel's fault.

And I'm sure Tucker Carlson has a problem with that, even though it didn't involve the US. I'm sure he's just worried that the Jews he feels such pungent antipathy for are "risking World War III."

Can you get me a beer while you're up? If you don't you're Risking World War Three.

Weird he never thinks that Iran or its many, many terrorist proxy armies are Risking World War Three. Only Israel, and the US, if the US sides with Israel against terrorists.

The Jerusalem Post:

The Israeli military carried out an airstrike on Yemen's main airport in Sanaa on Tuesday, its second attack in two days on Iran-aligned Houthi rebels after a surge in tensions between the group and Israel.

Three people were killed in the strike, according to Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV.

Israel warned people to leave the area around Sanaa International Airport before Tuesday's attack, which it said targeted Houthi infrastructure and "fully disabled the airport". Witnesses later reported four strikes in the capital.

Tensions have been high since the Gaza war began, but have risen further since a Houthi missile landed near Israel's Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday, prompting Israeli airstrikes on Yemen's Hodeidah port on Monday.

"A short while ago, IDF (Israel Defence Forces) fighter jets struck and dismantled Houthi terrorist infrastructure at the main airport in Sanaa, fully disabling the airport," the Israeli military said.

"The strike was carried out in response to the attack launched by the Houthi terrorist regime against Ben Gurion Airport. Flight runways, aircraft, and infrastructure at the airport were struck."

Three airport sources told Reuters that the strikes targeted three civilian airplanes, the departures hall, the airport runway and a military air base under Houthi control.

The Israeli military said the airport had been "a central hub for the Houthi terrorist regime to transfer weapons and operatives."

In a statement carried by al-Masirah, the Houthis said:

"The operations of our armed forces will continue and the support by Yemen to Palestine will only end with the end of the aggression and siege against Gaza."

They can say that, but Yemen's foreign minister has announced that he wants a ceasefire:

Following recent discussions and contacts conducted by the Sultanate of Oman with the United States and the relevant authorities in Sana'a, in the Republic of Yemen, with the aim of de-escalation, efforts have resulted in a ceasefire agreement between the two sides. In the future, neither side will target the other, including American vessels, in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait, ensuring freedom of navigation and the smooth flow of international commercial shipping. The Sultanate of Oman expresses its gratitude to both parties for their constructive approach that led to this welcome outcome, and hopes that it will lead to further progress on many regional issues towards achieving justice, peace, and prosperity for all.

Massive WIN.

President Trump promised to restore the freedom of navigation in the Red Sea, and he used great American strength to swiftly deliver on that promise.

The world is safer with President Trump in charge.

"President Trump ordered the US to start bombing the Houthis on March 15, 2025, when the United States launched a series of airstrikes across Yemen targeting the Houthis."

That didn't take long. Biden barely made an effort.

So I don't get it: How would not counter-attacking these terrorists have benefited the US? It would have created more acts of war -- more missiles lobbed at cities and airports, and more Western ships being attacked by Houthis -- not fewer.

But whatever. We're all terrorists now, I guess.
