Is asking to be left alone too much?
You’re not asking to be left alone, you deliberately incite
Yes, we placed our countries next to and around US troops and bases.
I didn't realize attacking civilian cargo vessels indiscriminately was "asking to be left alone".
The blockade is on Israeli ships and ships going to ports in Occupied Palestine. It is a response to the genocide in Gaza and therefore justified. The Yemeni forces made it clear they will stop when the genocide and blockade on Gaza stops.
Ships going to Israel bringing food and products are legitimate targets, so are Israeli ships, Palestinians in Gaza can’t even get food, why should genocidal settlers? What the Yemenis are doing is in accordance with international law and every country should do what it can to stop a genocide.
What Yemen has done was successful in bankrupting an Israeli port in Occupied Palestine and causing inflation in the Zionist colony.
Because of US and UK violence, the blockade was expanded to include US and UK ships as well. Totally justified.
The Yemenis have every right to refuse passage to ships associated with genocidal maniacs and their enablers.
