but there are people here who have this ridiculous “enemy of my enemy is my friend regardless of what they actually accomplish or what their real goals are”
You agreed that it didn’t help Gazans. Which was my point. They claim they are helping Gazans. They are not.
And, again, they do the exact same things Israel is doing- Killing thousands of people including children. You are ignoring that, which I also said that people like yourself do.
One mass murdering group is good to you because you don’t like a different mass murdering group and neither do they. That’s some bullshit reasoning if the reason you don’t like the latter group is because of all the murder.
Hurting Israel’s economy punishes them for hurting Gazans, even if it doesn’t directly stop them.
You seem to be under the impression that I don’t like political violence on principal. Not the case. I don’t like political violence that is on the side of perpetuating global empire, and I like political violence that is opposed to it. What you’re doing, by flattening all political violence into just “violence bad”, is a rhetorical tactic that promotes the status quo by demonizing all groups that fight against it.
The Houthis are fighting against the Saudi-backed puppet regime in North Yemen. They are not going to someone else’s country, ethnically cleansing the group that’s already there, and laying claim to it. They are enforcing a naval blockade in order to economically punish a country that is committing genocide, they are not perpetuating one themselves.
They are attacking shipping boats of the worlds wealthiest elites and you are comparing them to israel intentionally massacring 15.00 children. Which is the reason they are attacking the ships.
Those are the righteous people you’re supporting. They send children to die in their war.
Either you didn’t know about that or it’s not actually the death of innocent people you care about when it comes to Israel invading and bombing Gaza. I hope it’s the former and you’re not just bloodthirsty.
Nearly 2,000 Houthi-recruited children were killed on the battlefield between January 2020 and May 2021, according to UN experts.
That’s who you’re claiming it’s insanity to call monsters.
Part of the comment you responded to:
Thank you for proving my point.

The Houthis are accomplishing something, and their real goals align with defeating the world’s hegemonic evil.

I see. Murdering children is opposing global empire when the Houthis do it, so it’s acceptable.
Why doesn’t anyone help the Palestinians? No not that way! They have to be absolutely perfect while we supply weapons for the Genocide!
So the options to you are “absolutely perfect” or “child murderers just like Israel” and you are going with the latter.
Guess it isn’t the deaths of innocent people you care about.
They are attacking shipping boats of the worlds wealthiest elites and you are comparing them to israel intentionally massacring 15.00 children. Which is the reason they are attacking the ships.
This is absolute insanity.
Ah, so you don’t know anything about the Houthis and think all they’ve ever done is attack shipping boats.
They literally use child soldiers. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/6/16/houthis-continue-to-recruit-child-soldiers-despite-yemen-truce
