Donald Trump states Houthis suffered heavy losses after US strikes and now seek peace
Story by Kateryna Serohina • 8h

In mid-March, the US launched large-scale strikes on the Houthis in Yemen in response to their attacks on ships in the Red Sea. Now, after suffering losses, the Houthis are seeking peace, according to a Fox News broadcast.

"The Houthis want peace because they’re getting the hell knocked out of them. The Houthis are dying for peace. They don’t want this… They were knocking ships out of the ocean…. In the Suez Canal, they only have about 20% of the ships going through. They have to go through a different way, which takes weeks of travel, and that really affects commerce. But the Houthis have been hit hard, and they want to negotiate peace," Trump said.
 
What preceded this

Reminder: On March 15, US President Donald Trump announced that the US had launched large-scale military strikes on dozens of targets in Yemen. This was an attempt to reopen international shipping lanes in the Red Sea, which had been under attack by the Houthis for months, as well as a signal to Iran regarding Trump’s intent to negotiate a nuclear deal.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

They don't want peace and never will want peace.  It's against Islamic law.  They want a cease fire to rearm and that's all. :osama:

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

The only peace for radical Muzzies is "Rest In Peace".

Houthis don't want peace.  They want a ceasefire so the Iranians can re-arm them.  They want to live to fight another day.

What they want is a "hudna".

A cease-fire under which they can re-arm and strengthen themselves...

Give it to them. Follow every shipment. Then bomb the crap out of them the second they set off so much as a bottle rocket.
