The U.S. military early Saturday struck another Houthi-controlled site in Yemen that it had determined was putting commercial vessels in the Red Sea at risk, two U.S. officials said, a day after the U.S. and Britain launched multiple airstrikes targeting Houthi rebels.
I mean stop touching the damn boats. People be touching US boats like 4 times in history and it always turns out bad.
The Imperial Japanese Navy sank 8 US boats and we dropped the Sun on them. Twice.
America has been supplying Saudi with weapons to attack the Houthis with for many years.
The Houthis didn’t lose.
Why are people so mad that someone is actually standing up for human rights? The demands of the Houthis are very reasonable.
That’s the problem, you touch a US boat and you get bombed, the US fucks an entire region over and they face no consequence
Guess nobody wanted to mess with the US?
The Houthis are blocking Israeli ports in response to genocide.
Why were US ships going to the ports of a country actively committing genocide?
The US is now bombing a sovereign nation to stop trade sanctions on a genocide.
You don’t get to seal off a critical global shipping route just because you happen to be living next to it and don’t like where some of the cargo is going. This isn’t like the bosphorous, even a recognized Yemeni government wouldn’t have control over who can transit the strait unless they invaded Djibouti
They weren’t. While you may disagree with US Navy hanging out in the area, they’re in international waters and not trying to go to Israel. You could argue that attacking US ships proves the blockade story is a farce
The US is willing to kill untold number of people because otherwise the cheap shirts made by children in Bangladesh will arrive slightly late. I do hope for this evil empire to fucking die already.
For Bangladesh it’s probably faster to go east to get to the US. The majority of ships going through the Suez Canal are trading with Europe.
No civilians died in the first strikes, and I’m not aware of any sources claiming any civilian deaths in these strikes either, which is probably to be expected given that they were against a military air base.
Would you change your mind if Houthi soldiers died? What is civilians would die?
I’m not going to feel particularly bad about people with the slogan “Death to America, death to Israel, a curse on the Jews” being killed in combat in a retaliatory military strike.
