I wonder if ships will face issue caused by Cape Horn since they’ll have to go by that route.

    Didn’t expect to see pro-violent Islamic terrorism opinions when I logged into lemmy this morning but here you are

    TopRamenBinLaden ,

    I don’t know how you don’t see the difference between a political action like a blockade and actual violent Islamic terrorism. There seems to be a disconnect there. The blockade should be praised as a good thing when compared with all the other terrible actions that could’ve been chosen instead.

    Really? What’s the Houthi movement slogan then?

    The way you avoid the question tells me that you know you’re in the wrong. I hope you sleep well with your shocking lack of morals!

    Oh sure … just ignore the fact that Iran backs the Houthis and the Houthis attack random ships, like those owned by Danish Maersk… that’s not terrorism at all.

    Yemen is enforcing a blockade against a genocidal criminal state. Someone else is playing world police and the US can’t stand that.

    Seems like they’re siding with the lesser evil.

    The Houthis do this because Iran tells them to. WTF. Can’t believe you’re white-knighting this.

    Edit: frfr

    Maybe the Houthi’s just take their slogan literally and have their own motivations? Everyone’s got to be a puppet though. Is Israel doing a genocide because the US told them to?

    Two generations are about to learn why America has such a large Navy

    nicetriangle ,

    Yeah this isn't gonna go on much longer without a military response, which I am guessing is the plan. Keep spreading the US and allied countries' military attention thinner and thinner.

    the other option is to comply with the Houthi demands that the starvation of the people of Gaza be ended and supplies be allowed in accordance with the International Laws

    JohnDClay ,

    They also demand a grab bag of other random extremist taking points like that the Quran should be how countries are run, and that the prophets descendents have an absolute right to rule.

    sudo ,

    Thats just their general movement. Not their explicit demands for the blockade.

    JohnDClay ,

    Because they’re so trustworthy? There’s no clear connection from ships being targeted to Israel like they claim.

    sudo , (edited )

    Did you somehow miss the video Ansar Allah released of seizing the glalxy leader? Did you miss the big Palestinian flag on the back of the helicopter? Did you miss the Yemeni operator announcing why they are seizing the ship?

    Like what are you trying to suggest Ansar Allah’s alternative motives are? Simple piracy? They’ve only captured one ship and are mostly scaring others off. Seems like bad tactics for piracy but good blockade tactics.

    Galaxy Leader is owned by a company co-owned by an Israeli. They said any connection to Israel will get you attacked. I’m sure theres more tenous connections. But I also dont really care. They can shut down the Red Sea entirely for all I care. Getting all nitpicky on how someone is trying to stop a genocide is in service of the genocide. If you dont like what Ansar Allah is doing you can call your rep and tell them to stop sponsoring genocide. Have some fucking priorities.

    JohnDClay ,

    They’re doing advertising. See here from William Spaniel.

    Every major country is affected by this. India and China have as much interest in free passage through the Red See as the US or the EU.

    rbesfe ,

    And yet China, who has a naval base in Djibouti, seems to just be sitting back and letting everyone else tackle this

    homura1650 ,

    Operation Prosperity Guardian is already underway. Unfourtuantly, modern drone technology tilts the scales in favor of the attacker in this sort of situation relative to where it was a decade ago; and commercial shipping companies are not in the bussiness of shipping through active combat zones.

    soggy_kitty ,

    NATO has so many resources, it’s the entire purpose of NATO.

    Saying the resources are being spread thinner is a undebatable fact but I would say not every military/country in NATO had even CLOSE to 100% of people working on Ukraine before Israel piped up.

    NATO can handle a lot more of this shit

    JohnDClay ,

    Navy helicopter shot down a couple of boats a few days ago, but the response will probably grow.

    nicetriangle ,

    Yeah I mean more of an attack on land actually in Yemen situation or even potentially boots on the ground and not just some sort of cruise missile or air strike.
