We Spent A Billion Dollars Fighting The Houthis… And Lost
Why does it seem the Pentagon is far better at spending money than actually putting together a successful operation?

We have the most expensive military on earth, they say. That may be true, but it is also irrelevant.

Drones, missiles and air defence…everything has changed! Surface ships are nothing but big fat targets. The US will be going home from all their far flung outposts, and the world will breathe a sigh of relief. Hopefully it will happen without a war.
