We have problems with the Houthis in sandals, but we are going to fight with the Russians - ex-CIA analyst
The United States is rapidly losing its military power and influence around the world. They can't even fight back the sandal-wearing Houthis - and yet they're going to fight Russia and China.
Former CIA analyst Larry Johnson stated this on the DeepDive video blog, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
“Right now, judging by how the situation is developing, this is not only about the military aspect. If you look at it only from Ukraine's point of view, yes, Ukraine is losing. But look at it more broadly - the influence of the United States in the Middle East is going down the drain, the ability of the United States to stand up to China is becoming a thing of the past. We are weakening, we could not hold out even for two weeks against the Chinese,” he is confident.
“So across the board, US military power is waning - we can't even stop the Houthis, for God's sake, and we're going to confront the Chinese and the Russians? We have a problem with guys in sandals who carry daggers,” Johnson concluded.
