    Read up on the “blockade” and Houthis’ history and you will see a performative stunt funded by Iran and Houthis willing to do anything to get international attention.

    NONE of them care about the genocide, if you believe they do, you’ve fallen for the whole pile of bullshit. There is a naive desire to seek out allies in the face of a horrific situation, but there are no allies. (I mean, unless all Americans decided to work together and marched on washington demanding action and removal of our current so-called administration, but we can’t even get our own progressive side to stop arguing about if the Houthis are “bad or good” so I don’t have much hope that anyone is going to do more than bitch at each other on the internet while people continue to die needlessly for no other reason than humans are too easily swayed by emotional appeals one way or another.)

    If you translate any of this as anti-semitism you are a moron who belongs on Trump’s cabinet.

      Then WHY did the blockade stop and start at the same time ceasefire started and ended.

      Doing anything you can to bring international attention to a genocide is not only a good thing, it is every country’s duty under international law

        Because Iran was paying them. Please read the actual story. I cannot be a current events professor here, repeating the same shit doesn’t change the story, Houthis are not your heros.

          I don’t care if Iran is paying them, the goal of both the Houthis and Iran is to stop the genocide which is not only a good thing, it is the duty of every country under international law

            I am saying Houthis are not your heros, and Russia is now funding both sides of our internal “debate” here in the USA about the Houthis, so whatever the fuck you’re reading out there, it’s probably wrong. They do this to poison the well so that people tune out and don’t know what to think anymore.

            I am not engaging on this shit anymore because everyone is too locked-in and can’t even have a conversation, it’s just rabid frothing. Good work Russia.

              The US and Israel are committing a genocide and Iran and the Houthis are doing whatever they can to stop a genocide. That doesn’t make anyone a hero but if you’re favoring the US/Israel side over the Iran/Houthi side then you’re fine with genocide
