The skies over Jerusalem lit up early Thursday as air raid sirens blared across the city. A ballistic missile fired by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen was shot down by Israeli defenses before it could cause damage. This attack shows how radical groups keep trying to harm our strongest Middle East ally.
American forces immediately struck back at Houthi targets in Yemen’s capital. U.S. warplanes destroyed weapons storage sites used by these terrorists. President Trump warned Iran to stop supplying the Houthis, saying America won’t tolerate enemies threatening our friends. “They will be completely annihilated!” he declared on Truth Social.
The Houthis claimed they attacked Israel’s main airport as punishment for fighting Hamas terrorists in Gaza. But their missile didn’t even reach Israeli airspace. This failed strike proves these Iran-funded thugs can’t match Western military power. Our Navy easily shot down their cheap drones near the USS Harry Truman aircraft carrier.
While leftist politicians push for ceasefire deals, strong leadership matters. President Trump’s swift action protects innocent lives and stops radical Islam from spreading. Thirteen Israelis got minor injuries rushing to bomb shelters – a small price compared to the chaos if we let terrorists win.
Iran keeps fueling this violence by sending weapons to Yemen. They want to destabilize the region and hurt America’s interests. But our military’s fifth straight day of bombing Houthi bases shows we won’t back down. Freedom-loving nations must stand together against this evil axis.
The Houthis’ laughable “blockade” against U.S. ships shows how desperate they’ve become. Their leaders brag about fake victories while our missiles reduce their bases to rubble. Every failed attack exposes their weakness and America’s strength.
Some liberal media downplay these dangers, but the facts are clear. Since Operation Strength and Sword began, not one major Israeli city has fallen to terrorist rockets. Our tax dollars fund the Iron Dome that saves lives nightly. This is defense spending that works.
As Bible-believing Americans watch these events, we remember God’s promise to protect Israel. The Houthis’ evil plans will crumble just like Hamas’ tunnel networks. With strong leaders in Washington and Jerusalem, the forces of freedom will prevail against terrorism’s darkness.
