Even if you are right, which doesn't look like you are, then the Yemeni "government" started war with the US and other countries by attacking their ships.

I mean the US has basically at war with them for the better part of the last decade already. Also Ansar Allah did declare war on Israel.

I think you meant Saudi Arabia. There's nothing interesting there in Yemen for the US government. They only decided to provide a response after one of Iranian/Houthi rockets was fired at their ship.

The US supported Saudi Arabia in their bombing campaign and also participated in the blockade of Yemen.
