Bombing Yemeni pirates is not news.
Including a journalist in your war plans would be hilarious news if it wasn’t also tragic.
I like how you reduced the Yemeni blockade to "piracy".
Unauthorised people tried to board shipping with the right of innocent passage. They are pirates.
In international waters, regardless of the ship's destination, owner, or origin.
Uh... I'm pretty sure you need to take ships for ransom or other material gain before you're considered a pirate. The Houthi blockade is just that, a blockade (definitely needs to be more targeted though), and frankly I care a lot more about opposing genocide than freedom of navigation.
United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea of 10 December 1982
The “blockade” fits detention in (a). The missiles they fired at the ships fit the violence.
For private ends. That part is important.
They are being contracted by Iran to do this.
Uh... What do you think the Houthis are? They're an independent political entity with their own goals, ideas and people. Even if they were doing this at Iran's bidding they wouldn't be "contracted" and their goals wouldn't be private ends.
So your argument is that they’re independent terrorists rather than pirates?
Asks the guy whos argument is that the defacto rulers of Yemen are crew or passengers of a private ship.
Oh that too lmao.
You're right, religious extremists is much better. They all follow the same pedophile prophet and that's the only reason they back each other
Fucking sigh. Religious extremists are much better than Israel's Generalplan Sud alliance, yes; good thing you realize.
No actually they're both religious extremist dipshits fighting over the same worthless wasteland. If Iran wants a fight with Israel then fucking do it, hopefully they take each other out and we can get two birds at once. Don't disrupt global trade and attack random civilian ships that want nothing to do with this stupid ass religious war between fucking idiots
Sigh.
Lol good counter argument. Just sigh until people agree with you. Get a paddle and you'll be worth as much a fuck as the dipshits in congress
