Israeli Navy Responds to Repeated Attacks by Striking Houthi-controlled Power Plant in Yemen

FDD | August 17, 2025

Latest Developments

Israel Strikes Sana’a: The Israeli Navy conducted a long-distance strike against the Houthi-controlled Haziz power station near the Yemeni capital of Sana’a on August 17, responding to “repeated attacks by the Houthi terror regime against the State of Israel and its citizens.” Local media reported large explosions that knocked generators out of service. The Iran-backed Houthis have launched at least seven unanswered ballistic missiles and seven drones against Israel since the last time the IDF struck Houthi targets on July 21.

Trump welcomes Russian President Vladimir Putin to Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Anchorage, Alaska, August 15, 2025 (By Benjamin D Applebaum – This image was released by the United States Department of Defense with the ID 250815-D-LS763-1028 (next).This tag does not indicate the copyright status of the attached work.

The party of war is apoplectic over the prospect of peace between Russia and Ukraine. The meeting was preliminary and productive, but it is soon to assess how formative it will be for an end to the war that Trump is pushing for. Roger Kimball: Trump said that he would rank their discussion as very good—”10 out of 10,” he said. He and Putin came to an agreement about a lot of issues. Some issues remained.

Peloni:  Trump’s policy on this point was quite on point during his first administration.  There should be zero tolerance for people coming from areas which are run by terrorists or unable to vet their own citizens as being terrorists…and yet an exception is being made for Gaza, of all regions??

The correct number of Islamic terrorism supporters to be admitted into the United States should be zero.

The new version of the Munich betrayal (Munich Betrayal 2.0) is eerily similar to the original one. It is also promoted by the original principal players, France and the UK.

It’s been almost 87 years since the ill-fated Munich Agreement, when the UK and France, ostensible allies and guarantors of the independence of the sovereign country Czechoslovakia, perfidiously abrogated that sacred responsibility.

Peloni: It is no secret that as Europe is becoming a Sharia conquest, the conquest of America is likewise being planned.

A very serious video montage that America must take very seriously. @realDonaldTrump ?? ? https://t.co/03as93DGlq

Peloni:  When will the expansion of Sharia Law be addressed in America?  Why has Pres. Trump not addressed this?  Why has AG Bondi not addressed this?  Where is FBI Director Patel on this subject?  Is America going to follow England, or is it going to maintain liberty over Sharia?  It give me no comfort in writing this, and in fact, the silence in the US regarding the expansion of Sharia from Michigan to Texas to Florida chills me to the bone.  Silence indicates consent, and such consent in the face of expanding Sharia Law can not be permitted.  In the wake of this silence among America’s leaders, Americans everywhere need to speak out about this looming catastrophe before them, and perhaps their leaders will come to follow the lead of the public in speaking out and acting as is already needed.

Peloni: Eve Rowell is quite correct.

I think the only thing standing in the way of the Arabs having self-rule is the King of Jordan. As soon as he abdicates, @Mudar_Zahran will become President of a new Republic of Jordan. All Palestinians are already, by Jordanian law, citizens of Jordan. He will welcome all…

Twenty years ago exactly, Israel began its disengagement from the Gaza Strip. Every last civilian and soldier would leave the enclave, though evidence of the Jewish communities would remain in the form of greenhouses, roads, and other infrastructure that was gifted to the Palestinians as they began their first serious experiment in independent self-rule.

A majority of Western leaders clearly refuse to exercise integrity when it concerns the Palestinian issue. Only leaders completely sold out to extremist ideologies would persist in pushing a proposal so far detached from reality and so harmful to many people — starting with the atrociously governed Palestinians — that it is almost beyond comprehension. “Are these people wicked or just very, very stupid?”, asks columnist Melanie Phillips. A valid question indeed. Pictured: 16/06/2025. Kananaskis, Canada.

This morning, the most destructive protest movement in Israeli society reemerged on the streets.

What’s really going on?

Once again, a tiny group of people are causing harm to the whole country and the hostages. (See picture below)

These demonstrations, held under the banner of supporting the hostages, are in reality a left-wing political campaign aimed at toppling the government.

In my January 30, 2022 article, “A Short History of Medicine and Megalomania,” I explain how holistic medicine is actually the original western medicine established on the principle of strengthening the immune system to fight off pathogens in the environment. It is traditional western medicine that is the alternative medicine because its fundamental premise is that medications are required to be healthy:

My point is that the chemical/pharmaceutical companies are pouring toxic chemicals into the environment that destroy public health -> then the chemical/pharmaceutical companies offer more chemicals and pharmaceuticals to “cure” what they caused in the first place. It is a never-ending cycle of destruction of public health. The United States is at the bottom of the totem pole in world health because the American medical community is driven by unscrupulous globalists and the corrupt politicians who serve them.

Peloni:  There was never any advantage to be had in pursuing a ceasefire for Russia.  Yet, Zelensky will find it difficult (read as impossible) to accept any final settlement, as I noted previously.  Time will tell.

Importantly, it is now being reported that Trump backs Putin’s proposal for Russia to take full control of Donbas region in Ukraine while with possible freeze along front lines in other areas.  Meanwhile, Europe seems to be pushing for more of the past three years, so no surprise there.

Washington Abandons Support for a Ceasefire
