The total cost of the US military’s operation against the Iran-backed Houthi militants in Yemen is nearing $1 billion in just over three weeks, even as the attacks have had limited impact on destroying the terror group’s capabilities, three people briefed on the campaign’s progress told CNN.

    Nearly a billion dollars to swat drones with million-dollar missiles while the Defense Department assures voters it’s all “strategic deterrence.” At this rate, they’ll bankrupt the empire before they even dent a goat herder’s walkie-talkie. Bravo, Pentagon - masters of fireworks, amateurs at outcomes. LOL

    “US military offensive” is another term for “Israel proxy war using US funds”.
