Houthi attacks are increasing and approaching American ships, similar to today's attack by anti-ship ballistic missile from Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen .

The Houthis contiue  threatening  to target American and British ships with missiles and drones, as well as booby-trapped boats. This brings to mind the Al-Qaeda suicide attack on the American destroyer USS Cole in 2000, which led to the death of 17 American Marines, Alawadhi noticed.

The USS Cole bombing was a suicide attack by al-Qaeda against USS Cole, a guided missile destroyer of the United States Navy, on 12 October 2000, while she was being refueled in Yemen's Aden harbor. Seventeen U.S. Navy sailors were killed and thirty-seven injured[2] in the deadliest attack against a United States naval vessel since the USS Stark incident in 1987.

Al-Qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack against the United States.  The United States Navy has reconsidered its rules of engagement in response to this attack. 
The main accused in the USS Cole bombing, Jamal Al-Badawi, is a Yemeni extremist who was targeted in January 2019 by an American march in northern Yemen.
