Productive and safe: firing haphazardly into an international shipping corridor to stop Israel from doing what US hand wringing and international condemnation wouldn’t stop them from doing.

That’s not what happening at all. Yemen is interdicting shipping to Israel through its territorial waters. And the reason Yemen is interdicting shipping is because it’s demanding a ceasefire in Gaza where Israel is currently committing a genocide with the help of the west. It’s pretty telling when people start doing hand wringing over shipping while ignoring the genocide.

Citation needed on Yemen doing anything, as opposed to the Houthis like every single news source says. Citation needed on the rockets being fired only on ships headed to Israel, contradicting every source I can find. Citation needed on rockets only being fired at shipping vessels.

The Houthis are Yemen.

“””Yemen”””

The internationally recognized government controls very little of the populated part of the country and has relied on foreign powers to maintain any relevancy at all.

CTDummy ,

The Houthis are still not representative of Yemen and still are not the government of Yemen. Therefore to claim that “Yemen is interdicting ships in its territorial waters” is a blatant lie. OP and those supporting him should get their facts/lies right before posting them up. Not that I disagree with the genocide portion of the OP last reply, even if it’s tangential to this topic.

For all intents and purposes they do and they are.

CTDummy ,

By what metric? Are Hamas representative of Gaza? Or Hezbollah of Lebanon? Some people here might consider applying for work with Israel’s government considering they parrot their rhetoric.

brain_in_a_box ,

By the metric of who is actually running the country. Yes, Hamas is the government of Gaza, no Hezbollah is not the government of Lebanon.

Who do you consider to be the government of Taiwan?

CTDummy ,

That isn’t how government works and even if somehow these parties “run” the country, whatever that vague statement means, they are not the government. They have no territory and no claim to sovereignty over any of Yemen territories. So the initial claim is still false. Anyway you guys keep arguing about what feels right with vague statements and goalpost shifting. Pretending that 0.5% of Yemen is somehow running the show and speaks for all of Yemen; while also actually being its government as well. Bloody ridiculous.

Then enlighten me, how does government work?

whatever that vague statement means

It’s a lot less vague than your ephemeral abstract conception of it.

They have no territory and no claim to sovereignty over any of Yemen territories.

What are you talking about? They have most of Yemen’s territories and the overriding claim to sovereignty that comes with that.

Anyway you guys keep arguing about what feels right with vague statements and goalpost shifting.

Mate, you’re just projecting now. I’m not the one making vague, goalpost shifting statements that ‘feel’ right.

Pretending that 0.5% of Yemen is somehow running the show and speaks for all of Yemen

What portion of your country’s population is actively in government?

Bloody ridiculous.

Who is the government of Taiwan?

brain_in_a_box ,

And Taiwan is internationally recognised as part of China, what’s your point?
