I don't disagree with that. Actions can have many intentions. But that doesn't mean they don't oppose the genocide and are using it unscrupulously to attack ships (which the parent was implying). The majority of muslims In Yemen, regardless of sect, support Gaza and oppose the genocide. This is a good way to take a moral stand, gain public support and further legitimize their government, and be a thorn in the side of the US.

Which Russian tanker? One was hit carrying Russian naphtha, the Marlin Luanda, but it was not owned by Russia. AA claims it was British[0].

What ship attacks happened prior to the 7th?

"It's worth pointing out that if Ansar Allah succeeded in liberating Palestine, their next action would be to burn down all the mosques"

No, it wouldn't. This is pure conjecture. The Sunni and Shia conflict in Yemen is far more complex than you are trying to make it sound. The Sunni Saudis have been inflicting a famine on Yemen for years. The Sunni Emiratis have been assassinating and conducting terrorism within Yemen. This is important context to leave out.

“Geoffrey S. Corn is the George R.

A retired U.S. Army Judge Advocate Officer, he served as the Army's senior law of war advisor.”

Sounds unbiased, and full of integrity if he was a lawyer for the US army.

Sorry dang, but it’s a genocide. And this site continually allows people to post propaganda uncritically and deny or justify that the genocide is happening.

Pretty much all my posts are replies to those people. I’d rather not have to post about it so much, but it’s clear this site and its methods of moderation are not equipped to handle such an important topic.

Anywho, I’ll refrain from single topic posting. Can you give me the accepted posting ratio for tech to divisive topics? Thanks.

This clown is really trying to pretend Israel is doing any kind of harm reduction when it comes to civilian deaths. Wonder what that looks like when they are slaughtering civilians at aid trucks and causing a famine.

Also this so called expert is incredibly biased if you check his twitter. Hardcore Zionist. So this is just a propaganda piece.

Then when Israel continues their genocide you strip them of the munitions we supplied. If they continue then a global force can move into Israel and enforce a no fly zone and prevent further bombings.

If we don’t even take the first step of trying to stop it we are complicit and the primary reason it is ongoing.

We know it happened because of leaks that would get you thrown into prison now, and no one in charge was held accountable. So not sure what you’re trying to get at there.

As for your second point, your last statement is what matters. The us has engaged in more foreign military actions than any other nation since WW2. Who cares if they mask the brutality behind terms like precision strikes and collateral damage. We do terrible things and we do them frequently, usually for no benefit to anyone other than a select few. Everything you said is just trying to rationalize the fact we are the most aggressive country on the earth.

I disagree. They wouldn’t be murderers any more than Americans are.

You should think deep why you assume they are simply killers and not people with dignity who have been wronged by the murderous governments of saud and the us. And you should be asking if we are the ones that can be rehabilitated.

Is it really so hard to imagine why they would hate the American and Israeli governments?

We’ve been all but pulling the trigger as we supported Saudis bombing them for years, kept them under famine, have American mercenaries doing political assassinations for the emirates in Yemen, the list goes on.

We had 9/11 happen and large chunks of society wanted to nuke Mecca. Imagine multiple 9/11s every year for a decade and think how you’d feel.

What does this have to do with an active US military troop self immolating to protest the genocide in Gaza?

Your race baiting and lying is what should be removed.

“ The massacre excluded surviving Polish Legionnaires, who had defected from the French legion to become allied with the enslaved Africans, as well as the Germans who did not take part of the slave trade. They were instead granted full citizenship under the constitution and classified them as Noir, the new ruling ethnicity.”
