    Dropping bombs on Houthis because they’re attacking civilian ships in one of the most used commercial routes in the world.

    Because his best friend is going all genocidal. Biden is actively escalating tensions with a slapped on veneer of legitimacy

      And do you think if the US wasn’t in support of Israel, the Houthis would just… what, stop?

        I think everyone who has the power to stop the madness wants this war.

        Hamas and the Houthis included. Though they’re bottom feeders being used by Iran and maybe Russia in a proxy war. Israel and US are included in that. Unless you think Israelis would be so openly brazen if the US wasn’t simping so hard?

          I honestly think the Israelis would be just as brazen. Which is why it’s all the more important that we withdraw aid. There’s no positive influence we can wield in this, no heroic moment where the US saves the day. We need to just… stop. Rejoin the rest of the international community and try to minimize the damage of the genocide as a collective.
