    It’s probably the most effective way to prevent them from receiving Iranian weapons and shooting them at civilian ships.

    If the Houthis cease their attacks in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, the United States will immediately reevaluate this designation.

    All they gotta do is stop shooting at civilian ships and everyone will go back to not blowing up their assault facilities and preventing weapon shipments.

        They have only been getting bombed by the US/UK for a week after attacking civilian shipping since November. Other people might have been bombing them earlier, but the US/UK would be happy to go back to not bombing them if they stop touching the boats.

      If only we were so resolute to stopping people shooting civilians… that would solve both problems at the same time

        Well, we all read that other statement that had no mention of the murder of nearly 25,000 civilians.

        Civilians only matter when they’re a certain colour or ethnicity.
