‘It is clear the Houthis are in violation of international law’

RUSH EXCERPT:
KELLOGG: "Thanks for having me.  the administration talk about  striking but tit-for-tat  strikes, if you want to break  the cycle, we saw this in the  White House.  the term I use a super  escalate.  you have to take it to a level  the other party.  the irradiance or the houthis  are uncomfortable with and  don’t have to go to Iran to do  it.  it is clearly the houthis in  violation of international law,  attacking gibraltar, us owned  cargo ship and what you can do  to send a point, target the  leadership of the houthis and  there’s one single leader,  abdul al houthi, the economic  leader, if you say we are going  to take him out, he is somebody  that needs to be taken out.  unfortunately this  administration withdrew the  terrorist designation we put on  them in the previous  administration.  they need to put it back on,  sending a message to Iran, they  have a spy ship in the red sea  monitoring this traffic going  to and from the red sea,  sitting there anchored in the  red sea, send it to the bottom.  this is what we are going to  do.  to go to Iran to send a  message, you have to be a  accepting what that entails.  before, when we had an  administration willing to take  a risk, we knew the  consequences, prepared for the  consequences.  this administration won’t do  it.  because of that you see this  continue tit-for-tat, back and  forth with no resolution to  this conflict at all."
