    What bigger picture? It’s fucking genocide dude. Holy shit this is not just a small issue you can ignore.

    It’s like saying "Vote for Hitler, he’s better than the other guy and it’s just the Jews that are going to get kiled.

    What israel is doing is blockading food and water from entering into Gaza which is an actual Nazi style war crime straight from the concentration camps.

    This is what shipping through the red sea looks like right now in 1000’s ships:

    The Houthis are most definitely making an enormous global impact. Since the West is not standing up for humanitarian rights it seems like the only thing that will stop this genocide them is losing money.

      Biden is not running for President of Israel

      So the Houthis are coming off a civil war resulting in 300,000 deaths, yet now we’re getting worked up about less than a tenth that. Houthis are pirating or taking potshots at random merchant ships passing by, yet this is Israel’s fault?

        Last time I checked there were 2.3 million people in Gaza. You know why the Houthis do this? Because israel is still committing genocide in Gaza.

          Its ok because Houthis are defending themselves? That’s what we’re going with?

            Yes the Houthis were actually chosen by god 3000 years ago and there was a Hamas tunnel under the cargo ship. Thus they have the right to defend themselves.
