The Iran war has a new front in Yemen. Here’s how it could escalate | CNN
After a month of threats, Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels finally entered the Middle East conflict on Saturday, firing two missiles towards Israel. And in recent days they have also warned they could close a key waterway at the southern entrance of the Red Sea – raising the prospect of even greater disruption to global shipping and oil supplies.

>*“The truth is, (Israel is) at war with us and in a state of continuous aggression against us,” according to Nasr al-Din Amer, a member of the Houthis’ politburo.“They have not stopped, nor have they concealed their pursuit of what they call ‘Greater Israel’ and ‘changing the Middle East,’” Amer said in a statement to CNN on Saturday.* It's interesting how it's only framed as news when someone fights back.

talk about one of the worst strategic blunders since vietnam. not only is the us not winning this war, but iran is coming out even stronger and more well-positioned then it was before economically, cementing the rule of a hardliner ruler who had his family murdered in missile strikes and who is many, many years younger than his father, and overall changing nothing other than costing human lives and destroying our already fragile environment while spending billions of dollars pointlessly. all the while citizens back home starve and lose their healthcare, homes, etc.

If they shutdown the Red Sea again the energy crisis will go into full meltdown as about half of Saudi oil is still getting out via a pipeline to the Red Sea.

from the article: >*“Their main focus is still the Palestinian cause. By striking Israel, they are telling people in Yemen, their partners in the Iran-backed network, and supporters abroad that their priority has not changed,” Basha wrote on*[ *X*](https://x.com/BashaReport/status/2037878335334760464?s=20)*."*
