Houthi Drones Aimed At Shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden As Terrorist Label Wants to Drop

 

Once again we are forced to realized that fighting terror is like a game of Whack-A-Mole
Each time one appears to be whacked, another one appears to ruin your destruction goals
It is a game of quick reflexes where a mole appears and quickly fades away
Does not on the surface to be whacked for only a few seconds stay
Moving from the Hasbro gaming world to the real world of terror
You have to be perfect no room on location or timing be in error
If a mole is destroyed often no one will even learn
But if we fail and the target is hit to crash and burn
The world will know but not the identity of the mole
Spreading terror, fear and panic will be achieved goals
Designating groups as terrorists opens up a new set of tools to be used in the fight
No longer to have an arm tied behind your back to reduce your defensive might
The Houthis in Yemen have been subjecting shipping in the Red Sea to drone attacks
Yet the Biden administration seem intent on removing its terrorist designation to not strike back
Once again instead of leading from the front Biden follows not leads from behind
Little wonder our allies no longer respect, foes no longer fear and many here feel he’s lost his mind.
