The Houthis were not attacking all ships. They were only attacking ships connected to Israel, the US got directly involved to defend Israel. Now they’re attacking US and UK ships too, but only because of the unlimited support and defense for Israel.
It’s the UKs fault for the unlimited support and defense of Israel’s genocide (not “the Jews” but specifically the settler-colonial Zionist entity literally created from the British mandate). We supposedly have a duty under the genocide convention to prevent genocide, after all.
The Houthis having problematic views about Jews doesn’t change the fact that their attacks are directly motivated by the genocide. If Israel stops the genocide, the Houthis stop attacking. Simple as.
It’s terrorism regardless of who does it. Are you suggesting that allies of the US can fire missiles at random ships and have it not deemed to be terrorism?
I have 0 sympathy for barbaric ideas like executing people for being queer. I cannot imagine they ever act in any measure of good faith, regardless of the scenario.
They were only attacking ships they claim were related to Israel, no one with a brain stem should believe them. We already know for a fact they weren’t.
Actually if you do a little reading you’ll find out that they are. Ownership of large vessels is intentionally convoluted so as to lower the tax burden of very wealthy people, so when people without a brain stem see a Marshall Islands flagged ship they say “wElL tHAt a’iNT isRaEL tHEm hOOtiES is atTAcKin uNdiSCRiminiTLikE!!1” but actually, well just check it out below.
Link is dead so im gonna list the attacks I looked into and still remember.
So those 2 Russian oil tankers were actually owned by Israel? A few other “connected to Israel” ships I remember were 1 officer on board a UK ship was from Israel and some business guy was a member of the board in the company that owned another ship. The vast majority of ships getting attacked have come from or gone to Saudi Arabia and India.
They literally hit a ship a while back heading to Iran - they “say” they were only targeting ships to Israel but in practice they’re targeting every ship that goes through the area.

Got it, when Houthis attack British civilian ships, it’s the Jews’ fault.

The Houthi flag literally displays the words “Curse upon the Jews”. And that flag is 20 years old.
Yes yes, they’re very problematic.
What do you think “blowback” is?
It’s not an excuse for anti-Semitism
And anti-Semitism is not an excuse for genocide.

Hard to believe, considering that Houthis also attacked US vessels in 2016
Uh… There was an ongoing US-Saudi genocide against Yemen in 2016.
That’s a weird way to spell “as soon as Iran stops fighting a proxy war against Western interests, the Houthis stop attacking”
The Israeli actions merely provide pretext.
They don’t get to launch missiles at any ships lol, that’s terrorism regardless of their stated motive.
It’s only terrorism when enemies of the US do it.
It’s terrorism regardless of who does it. Are you suggesting that allies of the US can fire missiles at random ships and have it not deemed to be terrorism?
Actually, have the Houthis killed anyone yet? I’m having trouble sifting through the headlines.
They haven’t killed anyone yet with their ship attacks, thanks to the hard work of the coalition working against them.
Or they’re not trying to kill people.
But that doesn’t fit the narrative.
“Terrorists” like the E.L.F. 🙄 an inconvenience to commerce that targets goods, not people
They are shooting missiles at defenceless civilian ships, lol. What an absurd thing to say.
And yet no one has died.
Not sure about here but yeah they definitely execute a lot of people for being gay: https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2024/02/yemen-will-publicly-stone-crucify-10-gay-men-in-gruesome-public-spectacles/

That’s bad, but not relevant to whether or not the red sea attacks are terrorism.
“At random ships” is a lie. They’re attacking strategically.
Also, looking at what Israel is doing, it’s clear that US allies can kill anyone they want and have it not deemed to be terrorism.
Yes they can even fire at U.S. ships if they want, but they might get fined. Nothing a little U.S. foreign aid won’t cover, though.

They are just doing Somali pirates 2.

Says the US military.

Some people aren’t interested in more than the narrative, but I always do support your fighting with them.
