      Also, one is going to spawn more of the other and worse over time.

      It’s not about the chat specifically, it’s about ignoring any sort of rules the government is supposed to be beholden to, and getting away with it consistently as they push more and more.

      yeah. journalists shouldn’t be blowing up their sources like this.

      and also yemen, you know, really doesn’t need to be bombed any more than it already is.

        If the Houthi Militia do not want to be attacked they have to stop attacking cargo ships. No one should be defending the Houthi Militia unless you support killing innocent sailors for some fucked up reason.

            No I support military responses to attacks made by militaries. The Houthi Militia are murdering innocent civilians on cargo ships that happen to pass by.

              They aren’t innocent. There is a blockade to stop a genocide.

          If the US doesn’t want it’s ships attacked, then it should stop arming Israel. No one should be defending the US government unless you support killing innocent Palestinians for some fucked up reason.

          By that logic shouldn’t Israel stop the crimes against humanity it’s currently undertaking in Gaza if it doesn’t want shipping attacked?

            No, because Israel’s attacks aren’t really related to the Houthi attacks. The Houthi are claiming solidarity with Palestine but the actions aren’t related.

              They had stopped them for a solid period until Saudi airstrikes began again, and Israeli crimes against humanity in Gaza got more blatantly underway.

              Might be worth giving it a try if we care about human life.

                  I assume you think Pakistan and China’s attacks on the Baloch people are valid as well, then?

                  Since how dare an exploited ethnic minority have some of its members turn to violence against a hostile state.

                    Are the Balochs attacking innocent civilians in international waters? As they aren’t this is a false equivalence.

                    The Houthi represent the plurality within Yemen. The overthrew the coalition government starting the civil war. They are not an oppressed minority rather they are a group that represents the largest group and want to oppress others.

          if the cargo ships don’t want to be attacked, their owners/nations can embargo the core of the zionist death cult.

          it’s really fucking simple. you do genocide; people are gonna try and kill you sometimes, partisans are just gonna fucking happen places, and they’re going to be in the right, even when they’re otherwise complete fucking assholes. which also has the unfortunate effect of making total fucking assholes look good sometimes, because even a complete fucking piece of shit can tell genociding innocent people when there is literally any other option is wrong and needs to be stopped. which zios and their american minions are also on the hook for. every houthi bomb is just a product of american support for their zio masters.

            Many of these ships have nothing to do with Israel.

            Why do you think the Iranian propaganda you are currently maintaining reflects the facts on the ground?

              many. so not all. maybe, if you want to protect your international shipping, you could lift literally a single finger to stop the FUCKING GENOCIDE that is destabilizing world politics? just embargo them. there. now everyone can be sure no ships are zionist, and there’s no excuse, and the ‘iranian propaganda’ can’t possibly work!

              or do you just want to protect the zios?

                No I want to protect the innocents on the ships who are getting murdered by The Houthi for no reason. These ships are not connected to the war or any party in that war in many cases.

                What you are supporting is terrorists murdering innocent sailors to stop a war they have nothing to do with, why?

                  but the innocents being murdered in gaza, they’re cool? right? it’s cool to support the terrorists doing that and explicitly saying “we want to do a genocide” while showing that their ambitions will not stop until they are stopped?

                  it’s cool to support THOSE terrorists?

                    I never said anything about Gaza so don’t put words in my mouth. The Houthi are claiming they are doing this in solidarity but they attacked ships during th ceasefire which is at odds with that claim.

                    It’s weird that anyone who isn’t in theory racist and ostensibly cares about peace would back The Houthi Militia who instigated the civil war and whose ideology is overtly racist.

          Yeah, but fuck Ukraine, Zelenskyy didn’t say thank you the 38th time. Also, boss and fuck buddy Putin wouldn’t like it. At least now they can use their bombs in support of their nazi zionist buddies. If only Ukraine was a nazi state, they would have gotten more bombs. Maybe moron Trump should listen more to Putin, he claimed the invasion was for de-nazification of Ukraine. That should motivate him to supply Ukraine. Who cares about the truth right? But I doubt his memory records anything other than golf.
