USA Launches Military Coalition after Houthis Red Sea Attacks Raising Risk of USA Iran Conflict - Joe Blogs
The Houthis are a military and political organization in Yemen that are supported by Iran. Over the past few weeks they have undertaken a number of ATTACKS on Ships travelling through the Red Sea, which is the shortest shipping route from Asia to Europe. As a result of these attacks the majority of major Cargo Companies have announced that they will no longer use this route and will be going via Africa which will take around 3 weeks longer. The additional costs and delays have the potential to push the global economy into RECESSION. As a direct result the USA has organized a MILITARY COALITION against the Houthis to protect shipping. In this video I provide more details on the situation and discuss the potential implications for both the Global Economy and World Peace.
