Yemeni rebels attempting to impose a blockade on Israel fired rockets on a British ship and reportedly managed to sink it, the first time it has succeeded since the start of Israel's war on Hamas in Gaza

          So belonging equals supporting and justifies destructive action?

          You mean… like belonging to a people living on land coveted by a white supremacist settler-colonial project justifies destructive action?

            The answer you were looking for is “no, belonging does not equal supporting”.

                You know this only works if you posted a question first, which you haven’t, right?

                But I do see a pattern. Everyone who is not in line with your simplistic world view is being accused of being in support of the genocide. Maybe you should learn how to differentiate.

                  I felt obliged to ask it for you since not being a genocide apologist seems outside of the realm of possibility for you.

                  learn how to differentiate.

                  There is no center here. If you oppose the only ones willing to lift a finger against genocidal white supremacism it’s perfectly clear which side you are most comfortable on.

                    Correct, it’s outside the realm of possibility. Because I’m not. Your desire to label everything a genocide apologist doesn’t make it true. But apparently that’s outside of your realm of possibility?

                    I oppose senseless violence. Attacking a cargo ship with absolutely no connection to Israel other than being registered by British company is pretty senseless - because it achieves absolutely nothing.

                    So, funny story. The British ship was Lebanese operated. Lebanon is opposed to Israel, and has been recently bombed by Israel even. In opposing a British registered ship, the Houthis have lifted a finger against nationals of a country attacked by Israel. They’ve unwittingly supported Israel.

                    Some rich British fucks lost a bunch of money. More Lebanese people lost their lives. Tell me, who have the Houthis done more damage to here? Perhaps they ascribe to the capitalist ideology that property is more important than human lives, and thus their attack was a net success? You seem to have fallen for this same logic.

                    Will you support Lebanon if they take revenge against the Houthis for their people? Or do you only reserve that support if it’s against Israel? There’s a reason why only fools support violence against civilians.
