A coalition of twelve countries led by the United States have warned Yemen’s Houthis (Ansar Allah) of “consequences” unless they stop their attacks on shipping in the Red Sea.
“Let our message now be clear: we call for the immediate end of these illegal attacks and release of unlawfully detained vessels and crews,” said the statement released by the White House on January 3. “The Houthis will bear the responsibility of the consequences should they continue to threaten lives, the global economy and free flow of commerce in the region’s critical waterways”.
The United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Germany and Japan are among the signatories of the statement. The only country in the Middle East to sign the statement was Bahrain.
The Houthis, who control much of Yemen’s Red Sea coast, are a part of the so-called Axis of Resistance that is backed by Iran and opposes Israel.
The group has fired several missiles and drones at the southernmost Israeli city of Eilat since the beginning of the Israeli war on the Palestinian Gaza Strip. It also assaulted a number of Israeli-related ships and announced a blockade on all ships heading to Israel.
In response, the U.S. deployed an aircraft carrier, the USS Dwight D Eisenhower, near Yemen and earlier announced a coalition of countries to protect movement in the Red Sea, through which 12 percent of global trade passes.
The new warning by the U.S. and its allies came after several reports that President Joe Biden’s administration is considering direct strikes on the Houthis, if the attacks continue.
A senior U.S. official told reporters on January 3 that Biden wanted to send “a very clear warning to the Houthis that they will bear the full consequences and responsibility for any further attacks against commercial vessels in the Red Sea.”
“I would not anticipate another warning because this speaks very much for itself,” the unnamed official said in a briefing.
On the same day, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said on X, previously known as Twitter, that this coalition was “united” in their stance against the Iran-backed rebel group.
“The Houthis must end their deadly and destabilizing attacks on vessels in the Red Sea,” he wrote. “The UK will always take action to defend freedom of navigation.”
The Houthis have already vowed that their attacks against Israel and related ships will continue and warned the U.S.-led coalition against launching any attack on Yemen. The Iranian-backed group possesses a large arsenal of offensive weapons, including missiles, drones and remotely-controlled boats that can attack vessels hundreds of kilometers away from Yemen’s shores.
pffft, what are the muslim countries gonna do?
the usa, uk and israel do as they please and noone fights back in any meaningful way.
israel has literally slaughtered 30,000 and maimed another 80,000 and noone is doing anything. 1.8 billion muslims and they dont have the guts or power to attack israel nor the pathetic usa which is thousands of miles from home
the khazar occupation of palestine will end and it won’t take years. will you want these welfare warfare demons back in their ghetto near your ghetto? it’s coming.
yea well, when the 2 bullies, israel and usa, have nuclear weapons, you have to build your world alliance protection (brics, etc) first and manage your retaliation. e.g. detailed case for genocide filed against israel in the international court of justice (icj) and the red sea blockage is working well against israel and europe. so israel support is being chipped away.
when has the icj or icc ever done a damn thing? they won’t even begin to issue charges. besides israel and the us are not signatories and ignore them. but if so, what will the penalty be? a tongue lashing? both entities are impotent and only for propaganda purposes. almost all these so-called international leos are fronts or tools. ansarullah is right. war is all they understand, talk is only talk.
agreed. but it is about the image. this is the first time an anglosphere party is called out in an anglosphere institution for what they are; mass murderers. there’s very little coverage of the genocide case against israel all nato media,as this case totally debunks israel’s and the west’s moral high ground, but flushes them out as the mass murdering turds they are.
it is a old and courageous move by south africa and just proves how corrupt and blind and treasonous western nations have become due to the infiltration of the dirty, animal jew.
but should the icj find israel guilty they must, without question, implement ceasefire or be totally barred from most modern society like north korea.
and it was also the africans who saved us all from thw who having emergency authority over every global nation.
yes. good points.
btw, you are zman are incorrect about the icj.
israel is infact a signatory to the icj and if the icj panel makes a decision it is binding as israel must abide.
if not, then boycotts, sanctions and embargos will be enforced and that will be done by other signatories aswell as israel allies
this will change. the a.o.r. knows they still have massive power, but now with limits. they know that death by a 1000 cuts is preferable and forces them to use their limited resources. this is why they are intent on pushing the resistance to act, time is not on their side, as nasrallah says. these terrorist attacks are acts of desperation as time is running out for them. they want war now, not later.
nazis said the same thing about the allies… pffft what are these morons going to do?
yeah the ussr lost a lot of men but they won the war…
btw this is very old zionist copy-paste people, muslims can’t/wouldn’t do this or that (trying to divide them). can you come up with something new for once? lazy donkey.
ohh get a clue clown. history is there for all.
muslims are very primitive and not very intelligent or advanced.
sure, 1, 10, 100 or 1000 muslim know how to fight.
but the muslim brain cannot comprehend battle that involves multiple facets and 10,000 to over 100,000 troops. muslims cannot process that hence why the muslim brain can only win a battle and never a war.
the simple muslim brain follows the quran so enough said…. that proves my point. not even a nutless pig is stupid enough to believe the childish nonsense in that arse paper.
mohammad- a totally illiterate fool who married a 6 year old baby and raped her from the age of 9.
the first ever ex-muslim was the man that wrote the quran
muslims will never comprehend combining infantry, artillery, mortar fire, airforce, navy and tank battalions because they are to stupid.
exactly thats what i was saying all the time. yes, of course some warners here warning that usrael is actively trying to provocate iran into some hasty action, in order to give reason for usa start all-out war against iran, is not fully wrong. but still iran & the muslim nations in a whole need to join hands & do something against this disgusting satanic cancer called israel.
1.8 bio muslims and they let the jews slaughter at will. falestinians, iranian generals, hezbollah commanders – without fighting back in an approriate way !? that’s embarassing !
it’s time the prophecy is fullfilled which says: “there will come an unstoppable army from khorasan”, and also that “that is the time where the jew will be afraid already from the noise of the leaves of trees – and finally whole world will rise up against these filth, so that in the end even the stone will lift itself saying: there is a jew hiding beneath me, please muslim come and kill him””
600m nato people and they let ukraine die on their own in a war with russia they are responsible via nato expansion.
you lump all muslims in one bucket but it is a huge diverse world each with their own problems. for sure they do what they can to help palestine. e.g. malaysia has blocked israel ships from docking in their ports.
rub a dub dub in a tranny filled tub. the no longer great satan is exposed and peeing itself as it gets attacked from all sides in a region that despises the anglozionazi viper. the kosher mafia “protection racket” is but a joke as the iou fiat filth ex saudi mercan toilet paper dollah gets flushed. how long before the wall st s#itter implodes and the inevitable tsunami of toxic derivative filth crashes down on $lumville proper unleashing the mother of all civil wars reloaded? karma is sweet.
“the uk will always take action to defend freedom of navigation.” uuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhh!
rishi the midget hindu chai boy squeals like a mighty mouse from pirate rock. oooooooh i bet the entire world is shaking as the little mouse flexes its “muscles” and threatens the fun loving houthi brothers.
yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn
yeah, those gray boxes made me laugh/gag. the uk is lucky if their junk can even get there. rishi is a uk uncle tom and nothing more. he is supposed to make uk look non-racist. look under the skin and you’ll find boris blowhard. the west wants to make a confrontation happen now, while they can still shoot back. soon ukr and israel will have exhausted western stocks. then the fun begins.
nobody cares about western pirates or their threats…..its called cigtow – countries going their own way. and nothing can stop it
if senile genocide joe starts ww3, there will be no ellections !!! so the deep state terrorists stay in power and will drive every country involved against the resistence fighters to bankrupsy.
deep state smh 🤦
deep state has been around for centuries. they consolidated full control after jfk was murdered. joe isn’t running anything. c.o.l. is. you sound like a trumpet. you do know deep state came out of europe, don’t you? khazarian mafia? but you do have the outcome right. it’s the plan after all. then comes the nwo, the mp-nwo that is. an all new juggernaut.
the houthis are not afraid of anglo-american threats.
they fought the us and israel before… oh boi who lost that war again? ksa and uae both told the us and israel that none of them can use their country to launch attacks on yemen.
i love mulatto cumdrop
you better not be talking about me holm-o-sexual
12 countries like seicheles islands… us bullshit 100%. i really hope the houtis will sink an aircraft carrier. it would be the most brilliant day in modern history.
what happened to us gang to protect israel ships? oh they left… lol.
what is the goal of houthis actions, economic pain to israel and western countries that support israel. they done that, as long as they attack here and there they job is done. look at the cost of shipping and let’s not forget some companies stop.
as the anglosphere a cultural desert declines into mental illness their impotent nato colonies devolve into garbage strife the tide turns and civilized peoples rejoice
oh yeah. just try it you bum. you just don’t want another cataclysm and catastrophe like vietnam was.
just like turkey controls the bosforus so can djibouti and yemen, no need to bombard ships.
