others steaming toward yemen, apparently with missiles and land mines and such and the aircraft bat group dispatched there and they re apparently turning back. is that a win? is that why they retreated? from what we know publicly i d say it s a win and a demonstration of what happens when real force is put on the table. it means you don t necessarily have to use it that the ability to muster that kind demonstrated the capacity we had and deterred the iranian forces to rearm the houthis. there s a lesson there. i m not sure the obama administration has learned it although the pentagon zerves credit for carrying through. now let s see if they can help the saudis the egyptians and others do something to diminish the cloud of the houthi coalition. do you think that will do that?
