Companies are rerouting around South Africa to avoid militia attacks in Yemen in one of the biggest disruptions to world trade since the Covid-19 pandemic
Maybe the Houthi’s just take their slogan literally and have their own motivations? Everyone’s got to be a puppet though. Is Israel doing a genocide because the US told them to?
Some of the governments of various regional powers may not care. However the Palestinian cause has massive popular support.
In Yemen I think it’s both. The Yemeni people were starved and bombed by the Saudis with lots of US support. It shouldn’t be surprising to anyone that they feel a deep sympathy for what Palestinians are going through.
The US will lose to the Houthis faster than they did to the Taliban. The Houthis are far better soldiers than the Taliban an have already been dodging US made bombs for a decade.
But hey, maybe it’ll stabilize Red Sea trade long enough for the Zionists to complete their genocide.
I don’t know how you don’t see the difference between a political action like a blockade and actual violent Islamic terrorism. There seems to be a disconnect there. The blockade should be praised as a good thing when compared with all the other terrible actions that could’ve been chosen instead.

The Houthis do this because Iran tells them to. WTF. Can’t believe you’re white-knighting this.

Yeah, or the US just invades Yemen with global support, triggering the regional crisis Iran wanted.
None of the regional powers actually care about Palestine outside of using it as a convenient political excuse.

Didn’t expect to see pro-violent Islamic terrorism opinions when I logged into lemmy this morning but here you are

Really? What’s the Houthi movement slogan then?

The way you avoid the question tells me that you know you’re in the wrong. I hope you sleep well with your shocking lack of morals!

Keep dancing I’m sure you’ll feel better
Oh sure … just ignore the fact that Iran backs the Houthis and the Houthis attack random ships, like those owned by Danish Maersk… that’s not terrorism at all.
Yemen is enforcing a blockade against a genocidal criminal state. Someone else is playing world police and the US can’t stand that.

Seems like they’re siding with the lesser evil.
