This is a significant escalation, but it shouldn’t come as a surprise given Biden declared them non-terrorists in 2021 and gave them one billion dollars last year. This administration seems to think they can buy goodwill from terrorists. They’re remarkably inept.

Ballistic missiles fired by Yemen’s Houthi rebels struck three commercial ships Sunday in the Red Sea, while a U.S. warship shot down three drones in self-defense during the hourslong assault, the U.S. military said. The Iranian-backed Houthis claimed two of the attacks.

The strikes marked an escalation in a series of maritime attacks in the Mideast linked to the Israel-Hamas war, as multiple vessels found themselves in the crosshairs of a single Houthi assault for the first time in the conflict.

This presents a grave risk of global war.
