      Like the Ansar Allah trying to disarm Israel?

      Why isn’t halting a genocide more important than interrupting commercial shipping to you?

        A couple of targeted strikes on houthi terrorists is genocide to you? How about stop being disingenuous.

            Per your second article, “The Houthis say they are targeting ships which are Israeli-owned, flagged or operated, or which are heading to Israeli ports. However, many have no connections with Israel.

            Emphasis mine. So what exactly do they have to do with the Palestinian genocide? Sounds like they’re just clout chasing and distracting from it.

              Yes Israel, the countries illegally aiding genocide and ships heading there will be totally honest about which ships are going to their ports.

              Hint: numerous ships with no indication on their manifests have made their way to Israeli ports to deliver weapons.

                  Its almost like we were discussing the Houthi, their attacks on shipping and the motivations for those attacks.

                  Look if you can’t follow a simple chain of comments lemmy isn’t for you. I suggest childrens books with the age range of 3 to 5 years old for someone of your obvious capabilities.

                    You provided a source to explain how the Houthi attacks were related to the Palestinian conflict and how they were purportedly helping the Palestinian people.

                    Your source said despite the Houthis’ claims, their attacks were on ships unrelated to Israeli.

                    You said, contrary to the article, that the ships were in fact related and they had been lying.

                    Unless I’m to understand, you’re trying to have it both ways here, and saying the BBC is correct when they support your claim but the BBC is incorrect when they don’t support your claim – in the exact same article.

                    When your grade school writing teachers told you that your arguments and evidence made no sense and that you were actually undermining them, did you also insult them? It would certainly explain a lot about your argumentative capabilities if you belittled them instead of thinking to improve.

                    Your insult didn’t even make sense, it would read better as: “I suggest childrens books with the a suggested age range of 3 to 5 years old for someone of with your obvious deficiency in capabilities.”

                    By all means though, feel free to continue picking a fight with a pedantic engineer who’s good with words. I haven’t had a good laugh like this in ages.

            You think the Houthi attacks are anything other than a tactic to distract the west from Ukraine? Read between the lines.

              Yes surely Russia is somehow behind the Israeli decision to genocide Palestinians.

                Don’t play dumb, that’s not what I said. Russia and Iran had a hand in the October attacks by the Palestinians which started this war however.

                  The entire IDF failed against a few dudes on a paraglider because RUSSIA DID IT!

                  This is just tinfoiling.

                    Have you read anything about the attacks? The IDF failed for the same reason USA failed on 9/11, they had intel and ignored it

        That’s an excellent question the Houthis have yet to answer.

          Houthis have been answering it for going on ten years now. Just ask the Saudi princes who got fireballed down at the F1 track last year.

            You’re going to have to expand on how that was successful for them and how it answers the question.
