      The Houthis warned Philippines that they will attack their ships? When did that happen, or are you full of shit as usual? They are often shooting ships indiscrimately, there were even cases of them hitting aid going to gaza or their allies ships. They literally said that they’re terrorizing international shipping canal to show solidarity with hamas, backed by Russian and Iranian rockets.

        That’s a blockade, yeah. Israel has been doing that on and off to Palestine for like 40 years.

            Israel has been attacking any ship that aimed for Gaza. The latest case they abducted a dozen Civilians in international waters. before they bombed a civilian ship bound to bring food to Gaza off the coast of Malta.

            So yes, Israel has been attacking targets in international water quite recently.

              So internationally that makes them terrorists. What’s bizzare to me is how hard it is for lemmy to say the same thing about houthis

                Israel attacking Civillians in international waters make the Houthis terrorists?

                You’re being absurd. Who’s said houthis aren’t terrorists? Literally every major world power has engaged in terrorism on scales that are hard to fathom. The issue is that the word is fucking useless because one man’s terrorist is anothers freedom fighter, it’s all just perspective.

                We can call them belligerent nation currently taking part in genocide and apartide while occupying three of it’s neighbors. To me at least that’s more descriptive then the same word used for someone who shoots up ten people at a gas station or whatever.

                  Literally multiple people on lemmy, with my own eyes. There was even a comment saying they’re the good force in this fucked up world

        I warned my neighbor that i would shoot him if he tried to pick my back door one more time. He warned me that he would kill my wife. Clearly we are both the same

          Did you warn your mailman not to drop off mail at your criminal neighbor’s house or you would blow up his truck?

            No, but I did warn my mailman not to deliver the ammo to my neighbor who has already killed my uncle’s entire family and is promising to murder my wife next.

            We can play this game forever. The reaction to genocide isn’t worse than genocide.

                You guess very stupidly, and without evidence. No one suggested “anything goes”, and you’re once again implying an action that occurred in an attempt to stop genocide is isolated act of aggression.

                It doesn’t “go”, Houthis don’t just get to sink ships, that’s not the argument being made.

                Israel is actively slaughtering children, and they’ve been warned for well over a year now to stop or ships heading their way will be attacked.

                I know you understand the concept, you’ll happily attribute the death of civilians indiscriminately bombed in a besieged enclave to the resistance militants and disgustingly call them human shields… But here they aren’t living in an open air prison that they aren’t allowed to leave, here they took a job on a ship going to a state that’s currently unapologetically live streaming a genocide.

        Houthis is an armed political and religious movement not an ethnic group within Yemen. Yes, it’s ok to bomb them
