The United States and Britain launched dozens of military strikes on Yemen on Thursday, raising fears of an escalation of conflict in the region. The strikes, launched in response to Houthi attacks on ships in the Red Sea that have disrupted global trade, left at least five people dead. The Houthi movement began targeting ships in November “essentially using a naval blockade in the Red Sea to prevent the blockade against civilians in Gaza,” according to our guest, Yemeni American scholar Shireen Al-Adeimi. “This is an offensive act. This is a breach of Yemeni sovereignty,” she says about the U.S. coalition’s strikes, which were launched without approval from Congress, and which Al-Adeimi additionally characterizes as “a defense of capitalism.”
The reason foreigners are forced to think about the burger empire is because it’s causing constant suffering for the rest of the world. US needs to be lanced like a boil, so that the rest of humanity can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Don’t you think that would be like “meet the new boss, same as the old boss”? Usually when terrorists are taken out violently they are replaced by even more extreme terrorists.
How do you think it would actually play out if the burger empire vanished?
I think we’re already seeing how it’s playing out. We’re moving towards a multipolar world that’s no longer going to be dominated by a single power. Your analogy doesn’t really make sense on a geopolitical level either. For example, the one power that can match the US today is China, and China hasn’t been to war since the 70s, it’s lifted over 800 million people out of poverty, and managed to establish mutually beneficial relationships with countries all across the world. The path of oppression and domination that US chose isn’t the only way of human relations. US behaves the way it does because it is a fascist state, and fascism must be defeated for humanity to flourish.

You keep using that word, but I don’t think it means what you think it means.
