In a The New York Times pseudo opinion piece aka “news analysis” this weekend, the paper advanced the FALSE claim that no American troops are at war overseas under Biden. This disrespects the troops who are currently under enemy fire in Syria, the Red Sea, and Somalia under Biden.

Let nobody be fooled! The hundreds of attacks being made by Houthi, the sinister mobsters and thugs based in Yemen, who are hated by the Yemeni people, all emanate from, and are created by, IRAN. Any further attack or retaliation by the “Houthis” will be met with great force, and
