The White House calculation that expanding the war in the Middle East by bombing the country by the Red Sea would entice commercial ships to make journeys through the Red Sea war zone seems not particularly well thought out.
About as smart as the escalate-in-order-to-de-escalate approach.

All the important Military Experts in the media seem to agree that it was vital and necessary for the US to launch a new front of the Gaza war in Yemen. It’s always so reassuring when the very important experts are in such firm agreement

As expected, this brilliant move by White House has further reduced Red Sea traffic while giving more income to oil producers like Russia and Iran.
Also, they generously gave the Houthis a propaganda win they were dreaming of.
