    So the Houthis get carte blanche to attack international trade routes because something someone Israel?

    Hard to believe we’re still making people this dumb. Darwin must have gotten something wrong.

      No, we should act to prevent them from doing this. Instead of bombing (and risking further spread and escalation) why not remove their motivation for doing this? What is their motivation for doing this? Their motivation is to prevent Israel from genociding. Now, if we just prevent Israel from genociding, the boats flow, Palestinians don’t get murdered, people in Yemen don’t get bombed either, and we make escalation less likely. That sounds like a far better outcome to me. The only reason to opt for the more violent path, is that you actually want the violence. If that’s your goal, then you’re the bad guy.

        Their motivation is Iranian power projection, and they are just a stooge. Palestine is just the headline they are using.

        (That said, what’s happening in Palestine is a genocide, no question about that)
