I thought that they were supposed to greet us as liberators.

Drusas ,

They should be protesting against the Houthis for causing this by attacking merchant vessels uninvolved in the regional conflicts.

Why would they protest in favor of the government that starved them in an attempt at genocide?

Drusas ,

Your comment makes no sense in the context of it being a reply to mine. I'm not saying to protest in favor of anyone--just against the ones who are bringing violence to their land.

Count042 ,

Fine, why would they protest against the government that successfully fought and won a war against Saudi Arabia, the US, and the UAE where they tried to starve them into compliance.

That's the hard bit about fighting someone you tried, and failed, to commit genocide against. What more do you have to threaten them with?

Drusas ,

I don't see how them having won a war makes them immune to protest. People can support a government/group while still disapproving of certain actions.

For example, I overall approve of Joe Biden. However, I don't approve of him sending weapons to Israel. Such nuance!

Count042 ,

Those aren't Protests. Did you read what they're yelling?

Omega_Haxors ,

They asked to not be called that. Also get the boot out of your mouth; you're literally denying genocide by saying this.

Drusas ,

You are naive and don't understand complex situations.

Omega_Haxors ,

Disappointing trolling attempt.

They aren't fighting Israel, they just use the genocide as an excuse to profit with piracy. So far they have attacked 2 Russian oil tankers with no affiliation to Israel and the only connections one other ship had was 1 officer was Israeli. No attempt to blockade Israel has been made so far.
