EXCERPT:
WHITON: "It seems like it’ll be a lingering conflict, one thing the administration has done in particular with the Houthis dispense with the ideas in independent force, they are armed and funded and encouraged by Iran. President Trump and Defense Sec. Hegseth has said not only we’ll attach the Houthis, we are doing that finally we are taking offensive to them rather than just defensively using million and a half dollar missiles to shoot down cheap drones that the Houthis are sending but actually hitting targets in Yemen. With Gaza, there is really not a great solution as far as what will this look like politically when the fighting starts. Noone wants to say it’s not politically correct but it needs an authoritarian government. There’s no way to have democracy in Gaza, you’ll end up with a Muslim brotherhood with Hamas in charge. Until there is a political solution which remains elusive I think of the conflict here on there."
