President Trump said this week that Iranian-backed Houthi militants in Yemen have been “decimated by the relentless strikes” that he ordered beginning on March 15.
But that’s not what Pentagon and military officials are privately telling Congress and allied countries.
In closed briefings in recent days, Pentagon officials have acknowledged that there has been only limited success in destroying the Houthis’ vast, largely underground arsenal of missiles, drones and launchers, according to congressional aides and allies.

Limited success is bureaucrat-speak for failure.

Of course it couldn't be successful, the Houthis knew they were coming for frack's sake!

I suspect that the military knew the strikes would be a failure before they launched ( even someone like me knew that ), but the idiot commander in chief has so lost his mind when it comes to the M E that he thinks in his tiny brain that a few bombs could actually succeed in destroying a dug in local force.

 

Trump should stick to domestic policies as he obviously doesn't have a clue when it's not in the USA. He probably thinks the Houthies still live in tents and ride camels.
