Feb. 12, 2024, Fairfax, Va.—Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning today issued the following statement marking the three-year anniversary of the State Department’s announcement that the Houthis would no longer be considered a terrorist organization:
“Three years ago today, the U.S. State Department and the Biden administration announced that they were revoking the terrorist designation of the Houthis as a Foreign Terrorist Organization. One month ago, the United States and the British bombed Houthi rebels is bombing the Houthis in retaliation for their attacks on cargo ships on the Red Sea heading to and from the Suez Canal. The Suez Canal handles 30 percent of the entire world’s sea-going container traffic.
“While the Biden administration seems to have forgotten this three-year anniversary which opened the door to Iran’s funding of its terror network in Yemen, it would be a shame if the rest of the world forgot about how kowtowing to Iran has made the world a much more dangerous place. Just another Biden blunder – shrinking America’s prestige, power and dollar one screw up at a time.”
