-- "The IDF killed Houthi Chief of Staff Muhammad Abd Al-Karim al-Ghamari, one of the most senior military officials of the Iran-backed group, in a strike in late August, the military confirmed on Thursday after the Yemeni terror group declared his death." --

I'm guessing the Chuck E. Cheese camo fatigues made this one a little easier. 

About that ceasefire...

-- "A Palestinian who hurled an explosive device at Israeli soldiers during operations in the northern West Bank city of Qabatiya this evening was shot dead, the military says." --

WHEN HERDING FARM ANIMALS IS THE PEAK ACCOMPLISHMENT OF YOUR COUNTRY...

-- "Sanaa residents told Reuters that the attack was on a hideout between two mountains that is used as a Houthi command and control center. The extent of the damage was not immediately clear." --

As long as they keep lobbing drones & rockets at Israel...

KICKIN' THAT 'HOUTHI BOOTY'...

-- "‘The minute the Houthis say 'we'll stop shooting at your ships, we'll stop shooting at your drones,' this campaign will end, but until then, it will be unrelenting,’ Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Sunday." --

Let's ask the US Secretary of State...

-- "So we basically have a band of pirates, you know, with guided precision anti-ship weaponry and exact- exacting a toll system in one of the most important shipping lanes in the world. That's just not sustainable. We are not going to have these people controlling which ships can go through and which ones cannot and so your question is, how long will this go on? It will go on until they no longer have the capability to do that." --

-- "Israeli airstrikes targeted a host of Houthi infrastructure near the airports of Hodeidah and the Yemeni capital of Sana'a as Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi was delivering a 'victory' speech nearby, local sources said." --

IN OTHER 'KNIFE TO A GUNFIGHT' NEWS...

HOUTHIS SEEM DETERMINED TO DIE HORRIBLE FIERY DEATH...

-- "On Friday, Israeli officials said, 'There will be a response to the shooting of the Iranian drone by the Houthis' and that they would not rule out the possibility of retaliatory action on Yemeni soil, saying such action was 'on the table.'" --

Fuck the terrorists. 

Nota bene... Iran is roughly the same distance away from Israel as Yemen.

APPARENTLY, NOBODY TAKES PRESIDENT GRANDAD SERIOUSLY THESE DAYS

-- "A U.S.-owned bulk carrier ship, the M/V Gibraltar Eagle, in the Gulf of Aden was hit by a missile fired from Yemen on Monday, U.S. officials said. The ship is owned by Eagle Bulk, a Stamford, Connecticut-based shipping firm. This is the 30th attack on commercial vessels by the Houthi's since November 19th." --

F@CKED AROUND AND FOUND OUT...

-- "The United States and United Kingdom were striking more than a dozen Houthi targets inside of Yemen, reported Pentagon correspondent Carla Babb.  Strikes have been reported on the capital, Sanaa, and on Hudaydah, the Houthi Red Sea port stronghold." --

Well... they asked for it.

A VERY HOUTHI CHRISTMAS

-- "It’s taking no time at all for the Biden administration Red Sea plan to fall apart. I’m not sure what happened between that cozy phone call and a couple of hours later, but, holy SMOKES.  Someone must have sacre bleued in someone’s cornflakes, because the French abruptly decided they aren’t going to play." --

BIDEN'S GREAT RESET

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG --

"Customs and Border Protection announced on Monday the recent arrest of two Yemeni men featured on the FBI’s terror watchlist and allegedly illegally entered the United States from Mexico."

Late Monday, US Customs and Border Protection also announced the recent arrest of a convicted murderer previously deported from the US.

"More than 4,500 criminal aliens with serious records have been apprehended since October 1, 2020–the beginning of Fiscal Year 2021."

LAST WORD:   The daily violence nobody talks about...

The wounded, ranging in age from 18 to 44, were involved in a fight on the sidewalk about 11 p.m. on the 6800 block of South Justine Avenue when shots were fired.

Police said no one is in custody..

It's funny because it's true

You have to laugh... or you'd cry...

“Sure we sold them 3 billion dollars worth of military hardware in 2019 alone,” said Trudeau on NBC’s Meet The Press.

“But the relationship isn’t that serious.”

“We’re just acquaintances. Or work friends."

"At most we’re 'Fucking Over Yemen Buddies'.”

HOW TRUE IS IT?   Hells bells... let's take a look

The Biden administration has now frozen arms sales to the Saudis, but Justin Trudeau’s government seems happy to step into the breach as their gunrunner of choice.

"During Trudeau’s time as Prime Minister, Canada has exported more weapons abroad than at any point in its history."

LET'S TALK HAITI:   Again, PM Care bear looks away

"Canadian officials have barely criticized any of Moïse’s authoritarian measures. On the contrary, Ottawa has backed him at nearly every turn.

Canada continues to finance, train and legitimize a Haitian police force that violently maintains Moïse in power."

I think I smell Nobel Peace Prize #2

Who says Barack Obama doesn't believe in the death penalty?
Of course, Samir Khan stepped way over the line...

"Khan edited the slick Western-style Internet publication “Inspire Magazine” that attracted many readers."

No trial, no judge, no jury... that's one way to streamline the system.

Good on ya, Killer.

UPDATE: Playing it both ways...

...taking credit...

"We are very pleased that Mr. Awlaki is no longer going to be in a position to directly threaten the United States homeland, as well as our allies around the world."

...while ducking responsibility...

Mr. Obama declined to say whether he gave the order to kill al-Awlaki, saying he could not discuss operational details.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch... the McDreamy fanclub continues to shrink in numbers...

The American Civil Liberties Union, meanwhile, decried the killing of an American citizen who was never charged with a crime.

Hope, change and... ya feelin' lucky, punk?

-- SANAA, Yemen -- Yemen's chaos deepened on Monday when people looting a munitions factory set off an accidental explosion that killed at least 78 in an area torn from government control by Islamist militants exploiting the president's rapidly dwindling power.

FROM THE COMMENTS:

"Those weren't looters - they were ammunition equality activists."

The Tribe has spoken

Crush, kill destroy... just another day in the Arab Middle East...

In another setback for the president, his Human Rights Minister Huda al-Ban resigned Sunday in protest at Friday's killings. She is the latest of several ministers to quit his government in recent days.

But, hang on... Yemen has a Human Rights Minister?

There's your real story.
