    Wasn’t there one during the Biden sundowning? If so that’s three on the board.

      They supposedly shot the first one down with friendly fire.

        Fair enough. I remembered the headline, but not the details. I just had a look and it seems like they’re still being very vague about how one boat came to shoot down a jet taking off from another. Regardless, since they’re only there because of the Red Sea blockade I’m gonna count it for Ansar Allah creating the space for the own-goal.

    US Naval assets in the Red Sea have repeatedly come under Houthi fire since the Houthis began their attacks against Red Sea shipping in November 2023.

    No mention of why they’re attacking, of course.

        When I’ve interjected into my co-worker’s conversation about it, I’ve asked them point-blank “I wonder why they’re doing it”, and the question just slid right off their brains and they moved on to other topics. That’s just one anecdote, but it suggests to me that the average NYT reading American lib is not even aware of Ansar Allah’s demands and objectives.

    This is actually part of a much deeper CIA plot to arm deep sea eldritch horrors in order to further destabilize the region.

    No, no, it’s the assets on the Red Sea that have come under Houthi fire. The ones in the Red Sea, like this jet, are perfectly safe.
