Become? Always was, just worse now.

Each bomb that hits the houthis is a favor to the rest of the world. Given as a gift, by the USA.

What about the 17 innocent civilians that died during this bombing?

You know... The war crime part

They should have taken it upon themselves to overthrow the houthis like 20 years ago already. The houthis holding the Suez hostage for more than a year economically hurts multiple billions of people. The damage they are feeling is a small fraction of the damage they have done to the rest of the world. It's just not easy to show a representation of a small % of damage to the entire global economy like you can show a viral video clip of a bomb landing.

If "economic hurt" justifies a bombing campaign, then imagine what else would be justified. America economically devastated Iraq, so it's only fair that the Iraqi airforce comes over and drops a few hundred tons of bombs on us.

By your logic, Iraqi bombs should be dropping on your house and killing your family. And following your insane logic, it would be your fault that your family is dead, because you should have taken it upon yourself to overthrow the Republican Party regime.

This has to be the most vile comment I've read on lemmy. It's like saying that the people in the twin towers deserved to die because they didn't overthrow Bush.

The majority of the damage the houthis have done is to the economy of Europe. Despite their slogan they are not competent enough to figure out how to really hurt the US or Israel, not for a lack of trying, though.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago

Reports and the magnitude of attacks on Yamen shows that their actions indeed hurt the US and Israel . Many European countries are complicit with the genocide with military collaborations, good economical relations, refusing arrest warrents by the ICC and even selling weapons to Israel

"I will cut your kid's leg because your country government hurt my economy. " fuck is wrong with you with this logic. the same logic of the worst terrorists of cartels who have no funtioning brain or emotions because their drug intake.

They could just not shoot at ships. Ignoring that makes your argument a little pointless.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 month ago

Who's they? The innocent civilians are shooting at ships? Is this shopkeeper shooting at ships and deserves to feel their life endangered by US bombs?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Right, the kids they just bombed should just not have shot at ships /s

What the fuck is wrong with you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

The people there should have taken care of the Houthis themselves like 20 years ago.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago

Brutally 'solving' a problem entirely caused by the U.S, all while trying to demand gratitude from the rest of the world.

U.S foreign intervention in a nutshell, really

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago
