You can tell who's an idiot on the subject of today's conflict by observing who refers to the Houthi militia as "Yemen". 🚩🚩🚩
The Houthis, who have been launching the attacks on shipping in the Red Sea, are only one of three factions fighting for control of Yemen:
@Noahpinion I hear you but if they attack from Yaman they are Yaman. Period. Same for Lebanon.
@Noahpinion or, in many cases, who is being deliberately disingenuous
@Noahpinion This should be a notable exception, imho
@Noahpinion Official Yemeni govt just posted a statement blaming the Houthis for the conflict. So clearly, Yemen is anti-Houthi
@Noahpinion or anyone who talks about Houthis "only attacking Israel in response to Gaza" or really anyone who mentions Israel and ships in the same clause
@Noahpinion They do the same thing with Hamas and Palestinians.
@Noahpinion Correct. And those same people will offer precisely zero in terms of how we might deal with the problem of terrorists attacking ships.
