The US Military UNLOADS on Houthi Rebels

About this video

Max analyzes recent U.S. military strikes against Houthi rebels in the Red Sea region, which he describes as an escalation aimed at protecting shipping lanes and global commerce. He examines footage shared by President Trump of a strike on a Houthi meeting, speculating it was likely conducted by an F-15E or F-18F using a 1,000-2,000 lb bomb. Max also discusses how Houthis have been shooting down MQ-9 Reaper drones using Iranian-derived Saker 358 missiles and predicts increased U.S. operations with the arrival of a second carrier strike group.

Key takeaways

• Max argues the Trump administration has intensified military operations against Houthi rebels to protect Red Sea shipping lanes and ensure free global commerce for countries that ‘play by their rules’
• Max speculates that recent strikes, including one on a Houthi meeting shown by President Trump, were likely conducted by F-15E Strike Eagles or F-18F Super Hornets using large bombs, not MQ-9 drones
• Max explains that Houthis have shot down multiple MQ-9 Reaper drones using Iranian-derived Saker 358 missiles, which he claims are smuggled through Kuwaiti waters by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps
