Houthis Asked for War, and Now They Will Get It
The Houthi Shiāas in Yemen have for the past six months been firing on ships ā mostly commercial shipping ā in the Red Sea, in an effort to cut off Israelās maritime lifeline to Asia. They have been wildly successful; almost all of the traffic going from or to Asia via the Red Sea has had to be rerouted around the Horn of Africa.
Now Israel, not for the first time, has shown the West how to deal with terrorist entities. Israel has now delivered ā on July 21 ā its most devastating blow to Houthi-controlled infrastructure, and if the Houthis dare to respond to by, for example, managing to hit Eilat, the Jewish state will deliver even more severe attacks, including further attacks to render the port at Hodeidah completely unusable, and striking Houthi targets in Sanaāa itself, the Yemeni capital that the Houthis seized and have held since the beginning of the civil war, in 2014.
