    Yeah, I’m sure those non-Israeli civilian ships not even heading to Israel are really provoking the Houthis with their genocidal actions.

        Yes. Do you understand the idea of a ‘neutral nation’ or ‘international waters’?

          Yemen explicitly rejected neutrality. That’s well within their rights when a genocide is happening at their doorstep.

            You do understand that these ships being attacked are ships of neutral nations, right?

            You do understand that… right?

            And that the attacks aren’t happening in Yemeni territorial waters or Israeli territorial waters, but in international waters.

            You realize that… right?

            … right…?

                They’re literally not, though. The Houthis have been indiscriminately attacking ships passing through the area, which is largely used for passage through the Suez Canal - the only alternative being making a trip all the way around Africa.

                  They… Are? They’re attacking ships that are either Israeli-owned, flying the Israeli flag or are going to dock at Israel. And it’s working.

                    The Houthis are indiscriminately attacking ships that are not Israeli-owned, flying the Israeli flag, or going to dock at Israel. Of the ships attacked, only a small minority have any connection to Israel at all. So you’re just choosing to ignore reality. Okay. Good talk.

                    This is exceptionally easy to disprove with a five second Google search. Some of the container ships that were most recently attacked had panama and Japan flags. Please learn to think and read before spouting nonsense. What the houthi are doing is indiscernible from piracy
