No, the conflict is the result of the continuing 75 year occupation of Palestine.
2 weeks before Oct Netanyahu stood at the UN and declared he wiped Palestine off the maps.
No. Oct.7.

The start of the current war coincides perfectly with your dramatic increase in all of your whiny, lie-laden posts.

You are the historical marker.

Are you arguing that the Houthis are as evil...
Look at you desperately try to divert attention from the atrocities of your new heroes.

But according to the death counts you keep counting on, the Houthis are at least 10 times as deadly as Israel, not even counting their treatment of women and non-believers.

The same ICJ who demanded Hamas immediately and unconditionally release their hostages?
Hamas is not a country, basketcase, they are outside of the ICJ jurisdiction.
The orders the ICJ made were through the 'provisional measures'.
Those include ordering Israel to not commit genocide and 'in particular' to prevent killing Palestinians.

Has Israel abided by the ICJ rulings?

Thankfully because of Israel's border restrictions for the past two decades, Hamas' attempt a genocide was limited to 1200 Jewish civilians.
But Israel managed to kill about 20x the number of Palestinians so their genocide was much more successful?

Hamas is the government of Gaza (even thought the UN doesn't recognize them as such.

But look at your racist Victorian attitude pretending that Hamas isn't capable of being held accountable for their choices.



p.s. Can you show the ruling by the ICJ that says Israel is committing genocide?

Hamas is not a country, there is still no country of Palestine, only the one state, apartheid, Israel.
The ICJ only deals with countries.

The ICJ will take Israel to trial over genocide, then you will forever be tarred with supporting genocide.
Today Israel started bombing Rafah, where 1.4 million people are squeezed into a tiny area, during the Superbowl.

😂😂 Idiots they hit a Iran directed ship

Yemen’s Houthis target cargo ship bound for Iran, shipping analysts say

Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis have targeted a cargo ship in the Red Sea which shipping analysts said on Monday had been carrying corn to Iran.

It appeared to be the first time the Houthis have targeted an Iran-bound vessel since starting attacks on international shipping in solidarity with Palestinians over the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, shipping sources said.

A US defense official said it was likely that the ship had been targeted but not hit, but provided no further comment. Earlier reports by maritime specialists suggested the vessel may have been damaged but that there were no casualties.

The Houthis identified the vessel as the Star Iris. The group’s military spokesman, Yahya Saree, said in a televised statement the ship was American but maritime-shipping trackers said the Marshall Islands-flagged ship was Greek-owned.

The Star Iris had been transporting a corn cargo from Brazil to Iran, according to ship tracking analysis from data and analytics group Kpler.

“The Star Iris, like every Iran-bound bulker, had not diverted away from the Red Sea, perhaps unafraid of attacks from Iran-backed Houthis who could be considered ‘friendly’ given the vessel’s destination,” said Ishan Bhanu, lead agricultural commodities analyst at Kpler.

“It was carrying corn from Brazil. At a projected 4.5 million tons for this year, flows from Brazil make for the majority of Iran’s corn imports.”

A regional security official said the attack appeared designed to “show Iran does not control the Houthis and they act independently,” and that the Houthis had informed Tehran in advance.

Houthi militants in Yemen, who control the country’s most populous regions, have repeatedly fired on international commercial shipping since mid-November. Their targets have been vessels with commercial ties to the United States, Britain or Israel, shipping and insurance sources say.

The attacks have prompted several companies to halt Red Sea journeys and opt for a longer and more expensive route around Africa, and US and British warplanes have carried out retaliatory strikes across Yemen.

And yet another excuse for you to avoid criticizing Hamas.

And while I remember, have you answered my question about why you think the Houthis are good guys despite their role in the deaths on 350,000 Yemenis? And just in case your obsessive hatred gets in the way of your math skills, 350,000 is more than 10 times as many as have died in Gaza. Sadly the only thing that you think is important is whether someone hates Israel existing as much as you do.

What next, are you going to talk about how evil westerners were for killing so many during WWII so therefore Israel's genocide is ok?

Enough of the whataboutisms.
If you want the Houthis to stop attacking ships end the genocide.
If you want the protests to stop, end the genocide.
If you want Hamas and Palestinians to stop resisting the occupation, end the occupation and apartheid.

Zionism is the root cause of the genocide you keep defending.

No, just you and your kind. The rest of us apply the same standards regardless of the ethnicity of the people involved.

Again, the Houthis are responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths in the Yemeni civil war and have an atrocious human rights record, especially against women but you celebrate them simply because you "Curse the Jews" as much as they do.


Whataboutism is just your excuse for having a ridiculously fucked up double standard when it comes to Jews and Arabs, especially in a thread explicitly about the Houthis. You are the one who 'whatabouted' this thread by warping this into your Israel obsession like you do in every threat that challenges your moral inconsistencies.

Canadian weapons were part of the Yemeni civil war and there were none of your bullshit protests.
Canadian soldiers were actively part of the Syrian conflict yet there were none of your crocodile tears as Putin and Assad levelled Aleppo causing over 30,000 civilian casualties.
The current Sudan fighting has 15,000 dead and up to 20 million displaced or refugees and you don't comment even though both Canada and the US have covert involvement.

You have made it 100% clear that you don't care about Arabs or other non-white people other than as a tool to froth at the mouth over Jews.
