Everything is very dramatic. Just before, the Houthi armed forces in Yemen announced that they had launched multiple missiles and "successfully attacked" the US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier "Eisenhower" in the northern Red Sea. If I remember correctly, this is at least the third time that the Houthi armed forces have announced that missiles have attacked the "Eisenhower" aircraft carrier. Why is it in the northern Red Sea? The mystery lies here. A few hours later, the US Central Command announced that the "Eisenhower" had evacuated the Middle East and was on its way back home, wishing it "a good journey." On June 23, the "Eisenhower" had crossed the Suez Canal in Egypt and entered the vast Mediterranean Sea. The "Eisenhower" is going to run! The Houthis launched missiles to the northern Red Sea, which should also be the last opportunity to launch a final wave of attacks on the "Eisenhower", which can be regarded as "firing to see it off"!   

 Why did the USS Eisenhower withdraw now instead of earlier or later? The US military has its own explanation. The US Central Command said that the USS Eisenhower had sailed more than 55,000 miles in the Middle East and its carrier-based aircraft had flown more than 30,000 hours.

The situation in the Red Sea is highly tense. The Houthis are now the most important enemy of the United States. The USS Eisenhower is the most important force for the US military to fight the Houthis. Just a few hours before the Eisenhower was about to run away, the Houthis launched another attack on a merchant ship. But the Eisenhower still ran away. The aircraft carrier withdrew before the mission was completed. On Western social media, many people did ridicule that this was a "cowardly" act. It should be noted that as the situation worsened, the Eisenhower has become more and more a target of Houthi attacks. In the Houthi report, there was no unsuccessful attack, and it was even hinted that the Eisenhower was sunk by a missile. The Eisenhower certainly did not sink.

But no matter how they clarify, post photos and release short videos to show that the aircraft carrier is intact. But many people still doubt that the "Eisenhower" may have internal injuries, so even if the Houthis are getting more and more crazy, the US aircraft carrier is still in a hurry. Who will take over? The US Central Command announced that it is the "Roosevelt" aircraft carrier far away in the Pacific Ocean. So we also saw a slightly strange scene. The Red Sea is now windy and rough, and it is the most tense moment. The "Roosevelt" aircraft carrier has not arrived yet, but the "Eisenhower" ran away first. Is this encouraging the Houthi armed forces? Anyway, it's really a bit confusing. This is not like the usual style of the United States.

 

First, don't be superstitious about the use of force. Because force is not omnipotent. Even if it is the USS Eisenhower, will the Houthis be afraid? The strength of a US aircraft carrier battle group can completely crush the Houthis, but it cannot make the Houthis surrender, and it may even become a target of the Houthis. Just last month, the Houthis shot down three US MQ-9 Reaper drones. If we count from the new round of conflict between Palestine and Israel, six Reaper drones have fallen into the hands of the Houthi armed forces. The Reaper is the trump card of the US military's drones. It is expensive. Each Reaper drone is officially sold for more than 30 million US dollars. No matter how rich the US military is, it cannot withstand such a fight.

Second, the barefoot are not afraid of the ones wearing shoes. If you look at the numbers, every time the Houthis attack, the United States (and sometimes the United Kingdom) will launch a fierce air strike against the Houthis, causing tragic casualties among the Yemeni people. But the barefoot are not afraid of the ones wearing shoes. If the United States does not launch a ground war, it will not be able to defeat the Houthis; the United States dare not launch a ground war because it will definitely fall into another quagmire in the Middle East. The result is that the United States will fight symbolically and the international golden shipping channel will be closed. After 8 months, the "Eisenhower" hurried back home.
     Third, treating both the symptoms and the root causes is the right way. In this world, if you suppress one problem, another problem will pop up. The Red Sea issue is just a symptom, and the source of the problem is still in Gaza. But the United States doesn't care, treating the symptoms instead of the root causes. Will the world be better? We should still listen to the advice of the old Chinese doctor, treating both the symptoms and the root causes is the right way. Now, the Houthis are killing like crazy, and they must be celebrating their victory. Look, didn't the US aircraft carrier leave in disgrace? The "Eisenhower" breathed a sigh of relief, and after 8 months of suffering, it can finally return home; the test of the "Roosevelt" has just begun.
