Years of Saudi air strikes with US weapons systems ended in a victory for the Houthis. Not to mention causing one of the worst humanitarian situations of the 21st century.

WTF does the US think it's gonna do other than escalate the situation (and continue the next record breaking humanitarian crisis)?

The US is just making sure the humanitarian crisis in Yemen ISN'T the worst humanitarian situation of the 21st century.
