    Lmaoo they're targeting br*tish ships now too cuz they bombed Yemen. Incredibly based.

    Also funny seeing ships announcing they're not supplying Israel so Yemen doesn't attack them, which are mostly Russian or Chinese ships.

      Even if they wanted, the US can't afford the invasion in terms of human resources. Too much of their fleet is focused on Taiwan at the moment.

          Yeah but they're trying that. The Saudis tried that for like a decade before they started. It's harder than it appears to bomb a nation into submission.

          Edit: just in case someone says some genocidal thing about collectively punishing an entire ethnic group, if you're from certain communities in the fediverse I probably can't see your comments, but that would obviously be a horrific crime to actually do.

          I think there might be a difference between what US officials say and what is actually true. They're having a real hard time meeting recruiting quotas. Plus recent invasions haven't really supported the idea that the US is able to win invasions it starts.
