People inside the Pentagram are concerned about the cost of fighting the Houthis. Shooting down the cheap drones fielded by the Houthis will be expensive.

Pentagon officials are worried about the growing cost of countering Yemeni Houthi drone and missile attacks in the Red Sea, Politico reported on Wednesday. This comes after several major freight companies suspended travel through the region, citing concerns over the safety of their vessels.
The US Navy has shot down 38 drones and several missiles over the Red Sea in the past two months, according to the US Department of Defense. On Saturday, the US destroyer USS Carney shot down 14 drones – suspected to be launched from Yemen – in one attack alone.
The Houthis have stepped up attacks on shipping in the region amid the escalating Israel-Hamas conflict in Gaza. With the death toll among the Palestinians reportedly nearing 20,000, the rebels have vowed to continue their assaults until “the Israeli aggression against” their “steadfast brothers in the Gaza Strip stops.”
Politico reported that the cost of using US naval surface-to-air missiles is increasingly concerning, quoting sources from the Department of Defense. Each munition is reportedly worth an estimated 1,000 times more than the drones they’re used on.
…
Their experts estimate that the suicide drones deployed by the Houthis cost $2,000 at most.

The ZOG war apparatus is a mess. The system allows the big weapons manufacturers to rip them off and this is effectively undermining its viability. They’re going to go broke due to these military contractors charging insane sums of money for their weapons.
If each missile they use to shoot down a Houthi drone cost 1,000 times more than the drone itself, the Houthis could quickly bleed the US dry.
The US is going bankrupt from fighting all these Jewish wars. They expended all sorts of resources in the Ukraine and now with this mess they have with Israel, the Red Sea situation etc.. it is going to be very difficult for them to continue these efforts. At some point, they won’t have the money to continue it and it will all end.
The Pentagram is truly entering the danger zone!
