Western world needs to maintain a relatively secure international environment to maintain prosperity & mitigate future risks.
We need to secure trade routes & deter international threats before they become local.

None of the Red Sea trade routes connect to nor from America. We don’t need to do anything about them.
They’re stuck between Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Somalia. All with skyrocketing populations which hate the west. That trade route is doomed. Fighting for it is futile.

They are a major world trade route & cannot just be ceded to Iranian/Russian backed force without setting major precedent.
Saudi pop declining. Their govts hate the West - but people just want food & security.
Only doomed if we fail to defend it.

And the best way to do that is stop creating freedom fighters

There are already plenty of them to go around - agreed it’s a risk management calculation but the risk of b]being to be too weak or timid to respond forcefully is more likely to encourage escalating attacks than making them too prohibitively dangerous for most attackers.
