For almost a year, the Houthis' attacks have continued to keep global containerfreight cargo out of the Suez Canal.

This does two things: it absolutely cripples the world economy, as I explained in my column last week, and it starves General el-Sisi's government in Egypt of needed revenue.

Both are goals of the islamofascists ruling Iran.

No matter how hard we hammer the Houthis, as long as Iran isn't afraid of us, Iran will keep the Suez Canal closed to global trade.

Our enemy is Iran.

And that too is on the ballot this fall, since Kamala Harris represents another four years of the weak, appeasement-centered approach of the Biden-Harris regime, while Donald Trump represents the leadership that kept Iran cowed the previous four years.

My column on the matter focused on the damage that it does to world trade, here, if you missed it last week...
