        Why isn’t halting a genocide more important than interrupting commercial shipping to you?

                Yes surely Russia is somehow behind the Israeli decision to genocide Palestinians.

                  Don’t play dumb, that’s not what I said. Russia and Iran had a hand in the October attacks by the Palestinians which started this war however.

                    The entire IDF failed against a few dudes on a paraglider because RUSSIA DID IT!

                    This is just tinfoiling.

              Per your second article, “The Houthis say they are targeting ships which are Israeli-owned, flagged or operated, or which are heading to Israeli ports. However, many have no connections with Israel.

              Emphasis mine. So what exactly do they have to do with the Palestinian genocide? Sounds like they’re just clout chasing and distracting from it.

                Yes Israel, the countries illegally aiding genocide and ships heading there will be totally honest about which ships are going to their ports.

                Hint: numerous ships with no indication on their manifests have made their way to Israeli ports to deliver weapons.

                    Its almost like we were discussing the Houthi, their attacks on shipping and the motivations for those attacks.

                    Look if you can’t follow a simple chain of comments lemmy isn’t for you. I suggest childrens books with the age range of 3 to 5 years old for someone of your obvious capabilities.

            Houthis have been answering it for going on ten years now. Just ask the Saudi princes who got fireballed down at the F1 track last year.

      Sending my nation’s professional wet works crew to the other side of the world in order to assassinate some guys who took over a ship flagged to Panama, because it serves a national security interest to keep a cargo ship full of fleshlights from doing an end run around the Horn of Africa.

      And if you question any of this shit, or suggest other nations can do it now too, you are no better than that guy the CIA backed to do freedom fighting in Afghanistan back in the 70s.
