Those strikes come with a significant price tag. In some cases, U.S. forces have used Tomahawk missiles, which can cost about $2 million each. But even beyond the costs themselves, analysts warn that the U.S. is quickly depleting its weapons stockpiles, which were already running thin after years of military support for Ukraine in its war with Russia.
“The price of the munitions themselves may be pennies to the Pentagon financially, but using so many of them amounts to a significant blow to our actual stockpiles of these weapons,” said Mr. DiMino, the Defense Priorities analyst. “By some estimates, the Navy has already used more than a year’s worth of [Tomahawk missile] production in Yemen. It takes time to build these things. So, the costs are not just sticker price. It can set back our production by years in some cases.”
Fuck Israel.
Why does every sign in the picture look like it was made by the same person?
Because it’s the Houthi flag, not a sign.
It reads:
God is the Greatest
Death to America
Death to Israel
A Curse Upon the Jews
Victory to IslamI never considered that a flag could just be colored words with no symbols
Pretty sure the 3rd and 4th lines are now meant to be read as
Death to Israel a Curse Upon the Jews
I think they’ve mellowed out a lot as they’ve taken power in Yemen
Commas, save lives.

But then they wouldn’t have as many resources to genocide brown people in the middle east.
“Fight against Houthi’s”
“War on Yemen”
“Special military operation”
Not concerned, we have the manufacturing capability to make more but we aren’t because we’re currently prioritizing profits for the MIC. Come war time the profits will be ignored and war time production of the American giant is unparalleled. If we decide to we can cover every inch of Yemen with tomahawks and bunker busters then switch back to “peace” mode
Yes, and now you know why most of the world’s inhabitants hate the USA
Most of the world’s inhabitants hate each other too
You can’t print a supply chain out of thin air. These things take time, if you start now you may be ready in 10 years.
