Who is attacking ships in the Channel? No one. If they did they would be blown out of the water. So this sort of statement is just nonsense.

I think a lot of people would be happier if the boats were physically turned around or deterred. But that comparison is just... stupid.

BBC News Text :
[The Guardian leads with an attack on an American-owned container ship by Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels in the Gulf of Aden, part of a major shipping channel which connects to the Red Sea, on Monday. It comes after US and UK strikes on Houthi positions in response to previous attacks on Red Sea shipping last week. The paper says the attack "represented a widening of the theatre of war beyond the Red Sea" and will add to fears that the strikes "have not degraded the militia group's ability to threaten commercial shipping".]

The air strikes have the full cross party support of parliament, so any other narrative is misleading

A tanker with links to the UK is on fire in the Gulf of Aden after a being hit by a missile fired by the Houthis.
The Yemeni movement said it targeted the Marlin Luanda on Friday in response to "American-British aggression". The US and UK have launched air strikes on Houthi targets in response to attacks on ships in the Red Sea region. The US military said the Iran-backed group hit the tanker with an anti-ship ballistic missile and naval ships had responded to its distress signal. The operator of the vessel is registered as being Oceonix Services Ltd, a UK registered company. The tanker flies under the flag of the Marshall Islands and is operated on behalf of Trafigura - a multinational trading company domiciled in Singapore. Trafigura said the strike caused a fire in one of the ship's cargo tanks and firefighting equipment was being used to contain it. No injuries were reported. It is the latest attack on commercial shipping by the Houthis in and around the Red Sea. The group says it is targeting vessels in the region in support of Palestinians in Gaza, where Israel is fighting Hamas. In a statement, a Houthi spokesperson claimed the Marlin Luanda was a British ship and was targeted in response to "American-British aggression against our country". The UK government said attacks on commercial shipping are "completely unacceptable" and that Britain and its allies "reserve the right to respond appropriately". https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-68110358 |

The USA has fired a Missile and
taken down a Houthi Bomber Drone. Why are they not flying their Bomber Jets over the place where that Drone was sent. Or will this just, keep going until a load of USA Navy gets killed Last edited by arista; 28-01-2024 at 03:32 PM. |
