Which is why we aren't going to invade Yemen with ground forces, which is why the Houthis are able to keep harassing conventional shipping.

Nobody here is proposing ground troops in Yemen. We must stop basing our policy on the proposition that the proxies are the enemy. Certainly they are, but only as an Iranian delivery system and not the real opponent.

The US has immense capacity to inflict damage using only naval and air force resources. We could easily pick off an IRG facility or weapons plant every day with no feet on the ground.
