The US said it would consider revoking its recent designation of Yemen’s Houthis as terrorists if the Iran-backed militants cease their shipping attacks in and around the Red Sea.

In case y’all wondering how the whole operation Prosperity Guardian is going.

      First, reread my comment. Where did I say they don’t support Palestine? I never said anything about their attacks in the red sea being unrelated. However, them attacking cargo ships in the red sea, isn’t the only reason for this…

        Then your comment is even dumber. The only thing the US has requested to take Ansarallah off the terrorist list is for them to stop their anti genocide action. Absolutely nothing else.

          Yeah you’re right, they should keep bombing ships and wasting resources they could be using in their actual war effort and continue not affecting the Israeli destruction of Palestine.

            At least they are doing what they can to uphold international law. What are you doing other than complaining about that?

                It is not unrelated trade though. And yes signatories of the UN convention on prevention of genocide have a duty to take action to prevent genocide. Ansarallah are upholding best they can.

                Everything else you mentioned is pure whataboustims and has nothing to do with their operations in the Red Sea.

                  Houthis are a rebel group not UN recognized countries. The UN has condemned their attacks on commercial vessels. You’re literally advocating for terrorists with a long standing record of human rights abuses.

                    Regardless of whether the UN recognizes them or not, they govern over 80% of the Yemeni population with popular support. Far more legitimate than the other Saudi/US puppet government.

                    And they’re currently working to stop supplies to a genocidal colony. That already makes them more moral than pretty any other government in the world right now.
