Lol, you really don’t like the Houthis. Why do you care? It’s a little ethnic paramilitary, like a bajillion others all across the MENA area and other unstable regions.
No, I’d say they should keep parking warships in the area and eating all the missiles. It’s expensive as all get out, but said Gulf contries would be obliterated by mass bombardment on the first day if the region really goes boom, and a few more weeks to let things settle and ship Anthony Blinken around would have been great.
I don’t give a fuck about pirates. I care about disingenuous arguments. Including that them shooting at international ships is an effective or moral way to protest Israeli actions.
Well you’re in luck then, because I don’t think it is either. Maybe they’d have a leg to stand on if they were actually Israeli ships, but it sounds like they’ve been attacking random ones and then declaring them Israeli. It’s a stunt, and now the West is making it look even better.
Lying is universal, and lying about the thing you attacked is trendy this century.
I wonder if the decision makers in this case knew it was a lie from the start, of if their intelligence people were giving them what they wanted to find. Or maybe both, like the Iraqi WMDs.
The intelligence agencies were never the problem with Iraqi WMDs. They said the weapons might exist, but they could not conclusively confirm it. The Bush Administration lied about it and said the intelligence agencies called it a certainty.

We can’t let it go though. They’ve effectively blocked the suez canal for the entire world. Everything from food aid to toys.
A tactic I’d expect out of Israel, ironically

But I digress, I get what you mean.
