US President Donald J. Trump is currently under significant scrutiny after he rejoiced in the deaths of innocent Yemenis, whom he categorized as Houthi terrorists. On his official X page, the US leader mentioned that these Houthis had assembled for a briefing concerning a planned attack.
However, the US Air Force accurately targeted them, dropping bombs to ensure that no one would survive to see another day. Trump stated that there would be no further Houthi assaults on US vessels in that area.
“These Houthis gathered for instructions on an attack. Oops, there will be no attack from these Houthis! They will never sink our ships again,” tweeted Trump.

Nevertheless, the Republican has encountered backlash from thousands of his supporters. Many followers remarked that it is unlikely for terrorists to congregate in such a conspicuous location, fully aware of the high risk of being targeted.
It appears that the US military killed innocent individuals who were attending a tribal gathering. Regrettably, the US President and his group of loyal supporters are celebrating a victory that may constitute an act of war crimes.
“It was a tribal gathering. They were simply villagers celebrating Eid ul-Fitr, and you bombed them. This is a war crime, and you are a criminal. You vowed to end the war, yet instead, you have intensified it. You are a liar and a hypocrite,” one comment stated.
“The most powerful man on the planet just shared a video bragging about committing a war crime. What a time to be alive. The no-war president, right?”
“Blowing up starving, poor individuals in some random village in the middle of nowhere. Is that what making America great again looks like?”
“YOU JUST BLEW UP A BUNCH OF CIVILIANS, DIPSHIT. FUCK YOU, TRUMP. YOU TRY TO ACT TOUGH… TURNS OUT YOU’RE A COWARDLY CUCK FOR ISRAEL… AS IS YOUR ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION. YOU WILL LOSE HALF OR MORE OF YOUR BASE AND YOU’LL HAVE NO ONE TO POLITICALLY PROTECT YOU, AND THE WOLVES WILL TEAR YOU TO PIECES.”
It should be noted that the Houthis are a group of insurgents from Yemen who have faced widespread international condemnation for numerous atrocities committed against various nations and organizations. The US accuses them of targeting and vandalizing its ships in the Red Sea.
The Houthis, on their part, claim that these vessels are consistently delivering supplies to Israel, which they strongly oppose. In several statements made before and shortly after taking office, Trump vowed to eliminate this group.
Nevertheless, if the assertion is accurate and the individuals targeted by the US were not Houthi militants, it wouldn’t be the first instance of North America causing the deaths of innocent civilians and escaping without accountability. Examples include Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya, Vietnam, Japan, and many other nations.
