Yemen Civil War News and Discussion.. an evolving situation

[VCheng]

This is about hurting Israel economically, not zero trade sanctions like what Trump wanted to do with Iran. Also I believe this access to limitless funds is a bit overstated, as the owners of financialised global capital dont care about flags but about risk and reward.

But hurting Israel economically via attacks on shipping in the Bab are mere symbolism and nothing effective. But please don't let that stop you. Go right ahead.

Every little helps. I also wouldn't say "nothing" effective, otherwise the ships wouldn't have to reroute around Africa and the US to act militarily. And it's only been a couple months.

All those attacks achieve is a little nuisance value for the rest of the world, mainly Europe, that is all. As I said, please go right ahead.

First of all, I'm not the houthis that you say "go ahead". Secondly, it is more than a "little nuicase" if the US has had to act and the ships are rerouting.

LOL. USA acts for just about anything worldwide, from earthquakes to famine to maritime mischief like this, all the time.

Not militarily like this, and when it does it's against Iranian backed forces. Yeah it creates the famine, but that's another topic. Anyway, I'm off to bed as we're going so much around in circles that I'm feeling a bit dizzy haha!

It is funny that you think multipolarity is yet a thing already. Where is China in such attacks on shipping in the Bab? Please do tell us.

Of course it's already a thing, Russia and China are both sanctioned by the US, or the "eNtIRe WuRld" as you call it, but are still thriving. Same with Iran. Is China Muslim? Is Russia Muslim? No, this is an Islamic issue and Muslims are dealing with it. You clearly dont know what multipolarity is.

Ah I see. Thank you for the enlightenment. Good Night.

Claiming victory is pretty much only what is left for the other parties in the region.

You are putting up a strawman here.

It is YOUR claim that the Houthis' aim is to hit the ships. I believe their aim is to affect insurance premiums and shipping costs, which they have achieved.

I understand that. But it affects only one aspect of shipping to mainly Europe. This is more symbolic than effective.
