Sending my nation’s professional wet works crew to the other side of the world in order to assassinate some guys who took over a ship flagged to Panama, because it serves a national security interest to keep a cargo ship full of fleshlights from doing an end run around the Horn of Africa.
And if you question any of this shit, or suggest other nations can do it now too, you are no better than that guy the CIA backed to do freedom fighting in Afghanistan back in the 70s.
Trying to disarm an aggressor is not the same as attacking commercial ships.
Why isn’t halting a genocide more important than interrupting commercial shipping to you?
That’s an excellent question the Houthis have yet to answer.
Houthis have been answering it for going on ten years now. Just ask the Saudi princes who got fireballed down at the F1 track last year.
A couple of targeted strikes on houthi terrorists is genocide to you? How about stop being disingenuous.
Are you just playing at being daft…?
Here are some hints:
Per your second article, “The Houthis say they are targeting ships which are Israeli-owned, flagged or operated, or which are heading to Israeli ports. However, many have no connections with Israel.”
Emphasis mine. So what exactly do they have to do with the Palestinian genocide? Sounds like they’re just clout chasing and distracting from it.
You think the Houthi attacks are anything other than a tactic to distract the west from Ukraine? Read between the lines.
Yes surely Russia is somehow behind the Israeli decision to genocide Palestinians.
Don’t play dumb, that’s not what I said. Russia and Iran had a hand in the October attacks by the Palestinians which started this war however.
“While boarding the Dhow in rough seas - such searches are considered among the most dangerous naval missions - one SEAL team member fell into the ocean and a second tried to recover him.”
A Navy Seal drowned? Damn, didn’t think they could do that.
The ocean can kill even the most experienced men.
Reading this in the voice of Willem Dafoe from The Lighthouse.
Just swim, I thought they would cover that in basic training
If you’ve ever fallen off a boat into the water and been sucked under that boat and had to claw yourself back out again, you will understand why this is surprisingly non-trivial.
If you’ve been awake for 72 hours, jacked up on a pharmaceutical only God and the six most sadistic chemists at the Pentagon know about, and you just pulled yourself up on board a ship in the dead of night after tailing pirates for days, I have to image its even harder.
The Navy does prefer to kill their best and brightest in helicopter crashes. But its still very possible to get drowned to death on the job.
