The US said it would consider revoking its recent designation of Yemen’s Houthis as terrorists if the Iran-backed militants cease their shipping attacks in and around the Red Sea.
In case y’all wondering how the whole operation Prosperity Guardian is going.
Upholding international law by attacking unrelated commercial trade? Or by using child soldiers and human shields, or when they diverted international aid away from those in need and kept it for themselves, or when they blocked women in their controlled areas from travelling without a man, or when they tortured and raped female prisoners, or when they sentenced dozens of people to death for being gay, or when they raped, tortured and killed migrants from Africa. Were they doing what they could to uphold international law then too?
It is not unrelated trade though. And yes signatories of the UN convention on prevention of genocide have a duty to take action to prevent genocide. Ansarallah are upholding best they can.
Everything else you mentioned is pure whataboustims and has nothing to do with their operations in the Red Sea.
Houthis are a rebel group not UN recognized countries. The UN has condemned their attacks on commercial vessels. You’re literally advocating for terrorists with a long standing record of human rights abuses.
Regardless of whether the UN recognizes them or not, they govern over 80% of the Yemeni population with popular support. Far more legitimate than the other Saudi/US puppet government.
And they’re currently working to stop supplies to a genocidal colony. That already makes them more moral than pretty any other government in the world right now.
At least they are doing what they can to uphold international law. What are you doing other than complaining about that?
