Houthi rebels in Yemen announced that missiles and drones were fired at the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Eisenhower on May 31

For a long time, the Western media has likened Taiwan to an unsinkable aircraft carrier deployed by the United States in the belly of China, and even some Western media simply likened Taiwan to the “testicle” of China in the hands of the United States. These media commented that whenever the United States is unhappy, it will pinch the “testicle” and China will cry out in pain.
Holding this Taiwan “testicle”, the United States has been torturing China for more than half a century.
The United States may never realize that it also has a “testicle”, let alone that one day this “testicle” of its own will be held in the hands of others, and it will cry out in pain.
America’s “testicle” is the aircraft carrier USS Eisenhower. The Houthis in Yemen appear to be holding it. A spokesman for the Houthi rebels in Yemen announced that missiles and drones were fired at the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Eisenhower on May 31, hitting the aircraft carrier.
This time, the Houthis were clearly not going away, and instead of the Americans publicly denying being hit, it was an anonymous Pentagon official who came out and said there had been no attack, and then the captain of the Eisenhower sent pictures of the galley, suggesting that nothing had happened. The Houthi could not bear it and launched a second attack within 24 hours. In fact, Eisenhower had already moved from the southern part of the Red Sea to the north, and was still found “bombed.” Poor old America, being bullied like this by a guerrilla, I can’t bear to see it, but it still continues to endure.
It can be seen that the United States has found itself in a very painful situation where its own testicles are being pinched. It can be said that the small Houthi-armed guerrilla pierced the myth of the invincibility of the US military, and there will be more anti-American forces to beat the United States.
Aych! Just as swaggering as America was then, so desperate is it now.
The MCC looks like an American land-based aircraft carrier deployed in the southern foothills of the Himalayas. Let’s hope the land carrier MCC doesn’t become a testicle in the hands of others like Eisenhower.
