What ever happened to talking and reaching an agreement and asking for favors and scratching each other back.. like now we resort to uncivilized behavior by attacking the poorest countries.
Years of Saudi air strikes with US weapons systems ended in a victory for the Houthis. Not to mention causing one of the worst humanitarian situations of the 21st century.
WTF does the US think it's gonna do other than escalate the situation (and continue the next record breaking humanitarian crisis)?
The US is just making sure the humanitarian crisis in Yemen ISN'T the worst humanitarian situation of the 21st century.
Guaranteed employment for the weapons industry?
I stand with Yemen and the Yemeni government, the only terrorists are the US and Israeli militaries and whoever aids them.
I stand with anyone doing their part to pressure the US and Israel in ending their genocide. ❤️
If you stand with the Yemeni government then you want the Houthis gone.
Can you even find Yemen on a map.
The recent US and UK actions can be taken as examples on how to cure the symptom while making the disease worse
Here’s an idea:
The Houthi’s can just not launch missiles at ships
I'm tired of this kind of lazy rhetoric.
Why are the Houthi's committing violence?
I have a feeling it has less to do with a foundational nature of evil, and everything to do with a population being impoverished, oppressed, and forgotten.
Instead of spending 1.2 billion dollars bombing them, maybe purchasing 600 million dollars of their chief export would be a better idea.
Empower the legitimate businesses and the people in the region who aren't launching missiles instead of ravaging the region and creating a new generation of 'militant rebels'.
And the US could just stop funding Netanyahu's war in Gaza.
Good idea! Here's another: UK and US stop interferring in middle east (FYI the palestine problem was worsened by magnitudes by the UK mandate)
Actually they can’t, they have a legal obligation under the UN Convention on Genocide to take extra-territorial actions in order to stop or prevent genocide. They are acting within international law. The ships going to Israel despite the active genocide are violating international law and complicit in the genocide themselves.
I don't even know where to begin with this idiocy.
Ansar Allah are acting in accordance to international laws and treaties and are trying to stop the genocide in Gaza.
Lol🤔
US is a terrorist state, plain and simple.
Every attack strenghten the houthis.
But every attacks also creates shareholder value.
