    It still amazes me that right after everyone got a masterclass on “people who are being colonized have the right to defend themselves” in Ukraine, they turn around and put an israeli flag in their profile picture.

    Even this meme pointing out the severe hypocrisy is only met with denial.

      Uh, I don’t think that is common sentiment here, I see this not as that houthis should have a free pass because Ukraine did it, but rather both Ukraine and Houthis should be criticized equally for this kind of stuff

      Majority here is still pro-Palestine though, even tho zionazis are increasing day by day, but like I said there is probably still some sort of prejudice even if it’s small

        Personally I swing the complete opposite way.

        Ukrainians are based for blowing up Russian railways.

        And the Houthis are based for blocking shipping.

          I also believe that small talk is not gonna stop Russia or Israel, but the problem is in olden times you could declare a war, pickup swords and go to the battlefield, which meant that there was very little collateral damage and people who didn’t get involved did not really have to worry about their lives, today though everyone has missiles and nuclear weapons, which means people sitting 1000miles away who have nothing to do with this will also suffer

            Yes but that’s why damaging their economy is so great. If you do it right it often costs far less lives than doing combat.

            The Houthis have massively impacted the war and they haven’t killed a person so far!
