      Of course you’re a genocide fan. I should have realized it when you were calling Aaron Bushnell’s protest a suicide.

      The only lie here, though, looks to be this article. I haven’t found a single other source, and the looking glass servers I’m using are not showing any trunk is cut.

      But, it is jpost, so what do you expect.

        1. I’m not the OP which you can see if you look up.
        2. What the fuck are you on about genocide?
        3. I didn’t call his protest a suicide. I called it a protest that was a suicide. I’, not surprised you can’t understand the difference.

          1. I wasn’t responding to the OP, I was responding to you.

          2. Anserallah has been very consistent with what does they will ‘attack’. Another word for it would be that they are enforcing sanctions. They are consistently attacking ships supporting or owned by Israel, and ships affiliated with the US or UK, who are supporting Israel and bombing Yemen. Your comment is trying to imply that Anserallah’s actions are for some other reason. The number of ships passing through the Red Sea that don’t violate Yemen’s conditions say otherwise.

          3. Most of your comment are subtly critical of anyone critical of Israel. Or rather, they’re trying to be subtle. They are not. Your bias is obvious, and it is in defense of a country, the country responsible for the above publication for example, that is actively committing genocide.

    Using solely Israeli news sources to point the finger at Ansarallah… why is this article even allowed up? It comes with zero evidence.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    Four underwater communications cables between Saudi Arabia and Djibouti have been struck out of commission in recent months, presumably as a result of attacks by Yemen’s Iranian-backed Houthi rebels, according to an exclusive report in the Israeli news site Globes.

    The successful targeting of the four cables, which are believed to belong to the AAE-1, Seacom, EIG, and TGN systems, marks a serious disruption of communications between Europe and Asia.

    Most of the immediate harm will be absorbed by the Gulf states and India, Globes said.

    The Europe India Gateway (EIG) cable system connects southern Europe to Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Djibouti, the UAE, and India.

    Yemen’s Iranian-backed Houthi movement, which is not the internationally recognized government of the Arab country but which controls its most populous segments, has been attacking international trade for months, proclaiming solidarity with Palestinians as Israel wages war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

    The United States, United Kingdom, and allies have begun in recent months to take offensive actions against the Houthis in response to attacks, but the missile, helicopter, and underwater drone assaults on merchant ships have continued.
