It's wild they're able to do so under the noses of all the American ships in the region. That fleet presence couldn't look more impotent to Iran and Hezbollah.

They physically can't get too close else they are in range of shore based Iranian missiles, and having one of their precious ships sunk would force them to make a decision with no good options for them: either do nothing, look completely impotent and lose all "deterrence", or go to war with Iran which is extremely risky and could end in the US' greatest defeat of all time. If we do see them push their navy up into the Persian Gulf it will mean that they have become so desperate that they feel they need to gamble it all on all out war. I don't think that they will do it just as they haven't and won't dare to get directly involved in Ukraine because a bully doesn't pick a fight against anyone who may actually beat or severely hurt them, but you never know what a losing, cornered and increasingly irrational empire may do in its final days.
LET'S GOOOO
BASED ANSARULLAH
Full letter by the Yemeni armed forces to the Palestinians in Gaza:
"From the forces in the Yemeni army to their brothers, the forces in Gaza:
Peace be upon you, O heroic Mujahideen, steadfast in the battlefields, with courage and determination.
Peace be upon your firm footsteps, like the steadfastness of mountains, and your resolute hearts despite hardships and tribulations. And your hands striking the enemies in all arenas of combat.
O sincere Mujahideen:
Your tremendous valor has shattered the myth of an invincible army and, along with it, the dreams of collaborators and those who normalize relations with the criminal Zionists. Through your Jihad for the sake of Allah, you have provided the finest examples of bravery and sacrifice for the youth of our nation and ignited the spark of revolution in their hearts.
O truthful Mujahideen:
Your steadfastness, courage, and Jihad have presented lessons to all the oppressed people of our nation on sacrifice in the fields of honor, dignity, and confrontation with the enemies. Rejoice in the promise of Allah when He says: "Indeed, Allah has purchased from the believers their lives and their properties [in exchange] for that they will have Paradise. They fight in the cause of Allah, so they kill and are killed. [It is] a true promise [binding] upon Him in the Torah and the Gospel and the Qur'an. And who is truer to his covenant than Allah? So rejoice in your transaction which you have contracted. And it is that which is the great attainment" (Quran 9:111).
You have taught the nations how to supplicate in the battlefields and demonstrate steadfastness against the enemies. You are like those about whom Allah said: "And when they went forth to [face] Goliath and his soldiers, they said, 'Our Lord, pour upon us patience and plant firmly our feet and give us victory over the disbelieving people'" (Quran 2:250).
O sincere and truthful believers:
"Be not weakened and do not grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers. If a wound should touch you - there has already touched the [opposing] people a wound similar to it. And these days [of varying conditions] We alternate among the people so that Allah may make evident those who believe and [may] take to Himself from among you martyrs - and Allah does not like the wrongdoers" (Quran 3:139-141).
"Do not weaken or grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers. If a wound should touch you - a similar wound has already touched the [opposing] people. And these days [of varying conditions] We alternate among the people so that Allah may make evident those who believe and [may] take to Himself from among you martyrs - and Allah does not like the wrongdoers. And that Allah may purify the believers [through trials] and destroy the disbelievers. Or do you think that you will enter Paradise while Allah has not yet made evident those of you who fight in His cause and made evident those who are steadfast?" (Quran 3:139-142).
So, do not be concerned with the noise and barking of the hypocrites. If you did not engage in Jihad for the sake of Allah and confront the enemy with all your strength and conviction, the massacres and crimes committed against you today would be far greater. All that pure blood and great sacrifices would have gone in vain without a position of honor and dignity for this nation.
Remember the words of Allah: "Do not weaken or grieve, and you will be superior if you are [true] believers." Do not be disturbed by the hypocrites' noise and barking.
May peace be upon you on our behalf, on behalf of our people, our nation, and the mercy and blessings of Allah.
Yemen - November 25, 2023"
