Houthis target vital trade route

Houthis are also Alshabaab's biggest weapon suppliers

I think Houthis respect Somalia for some reason they're not a threat

Regardless I believe that the Houthis a Shia Iranian proxy being this close to us and operating close to our coast should be a concern

I do not want shia Iran or her allies in my backyard
