Iran Sends Warship in Response to American-Jewish Move to War in Yemen

We need to start bookmarking the Andrew Anglin articles where he suggests what will happen next.

He called it on Yemen as a flashpoint and the next step of the American-Jewish game.

New York Post:

Iran wasted no time sending a warship into the Red Sea on Monday, just a day after the US killed 10 Houthi fighters attacking commercial vessels in the contentious waters that separate Africa from the Middle East.

Tehran’s Alborz destroyer crossed the Bab-el-Mandeb strait and into the sea the same day Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian lauded the Houthis’ “strong and vigorous stance … in supporting the oppressed people of Palestine,” according to state-run media.

The Houthis, an Islamist military group backed by Iran, have been lobbing drones and missiles at foreign vessels in the Red Sea from their home of Yemen since November in response to the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict.

On Sunday, the US Navy closed out 2023 by sinking three Houthi ships in the Red Sea in a strike that marked the first time the US had killed any of members of the Iran proxy group since the recent spate of attacks began.

Helicopters from the USS Eisenhower and USS Gravely warships opened fire on “four Iranian-backed Houthi small boats,” sinking three of them, while responding to an SOS from the Singapore-flagged vessel Maersk Hangzhou around 6:30 a.m. local time, according to the US Central Command.

Houthis have launched nearly 20 attacks on such vessels in the Red Sea so far, prompting some shipping companies to avoid the waterway altogether.

The major trade lane offers passage between the Mediterranean Sea to the Arabian Sea, enabling vessels to bypass Africa with the Suez Canal.

Iran’s decision to send a warship into the Red Sea was an apparent answer to Washington’s calls for Tehran to condemn the Houthi attacks and encourage peace in the region.

The US demanding that Iran “encourage peace in the region” is quite possibly the most hilariously surreal thing that has ever happened in all of human history.

To be clear: the US is continuing to offer “unconditional support” for the slaughter of tens of thousands of kids in Gaza.

The idea that they could demand someone else “encourage peace” is so far beyond parody that it’s difficult to grasp the fact it actually happened.
