Pardon me, but is there a link to a reputable source that backs this up? Or is this just typical .ml chicanery?

It's primarily to make fun of the author and Telegraph, but it's not going very well for the US navy or israel as you can see from the blockade still being up almost a year later.

It doesn’t seem to be going particularly well for anyone, really…

[–] Alsephina@lemmy.ml 7 points 3 weeks ago

That is true, and I doubt that will stop until the genocide does.

No you don’t understand. The Houthis sunk 3 aircraft carriers and also destroyed Israel. It’s true I was there

We can certainly hope 😔

Wow, that’s… a lot. No wonder Israel is so mad, no longer existing and all…

Only if the houthis get to define “winning”

So, not really a “reputable source”

as I suspected: .ml chicanery ;P

for the record, i hate that you are making me defend the tankies

  • us navy went in to protect shipping
  • the shipping was not protected
  • us navy left

what definition of "winning" are you using
