Whiton on Israel Intercepting Houthis Missiles: ‘Seems Like It Will Be a Lingering Conflict’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
BARTIROMO: “Meanwhile sirens blared over Tel Aviv this week as Israel intercepted multiple attacks by Iranian back Houthis rebels, Hamas firing rockets into Tel Aviv after Israel resumed ground operations in Gaza on Wednesday. A breakdown of the two month cease-fire there, prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowing that the military campaign will continue by air, sea and the land until hostages are released. What about that are we headed back to a full-scale war?”

WHITON: “It seems like it’ll be a lingering conflict, one thing the administration has done with the Houthis dispense with the ideas in independent force, they are armed and funded and encouraged by Iran Trump and we are taking the offensive to them whether then defensively losing million and a half dollar missiles to shut down cheap drones that the Houthis are sending but hitting targets in Yemen with Gaza, there is not a great solution as far as what will this look like politically when the fighting starts. Nobody wants to say it’s not politically correct but it needs an authoritarian government no way to have democracy in Gaza you’ll end up with a Muslim brotherhood with Hamas in charge. Until there is a political solution which remains elusive I think of the conflict that one.”
