Arabia
Number of ships with Zionist ties hit by Yemeni forces reaches 196
2024-10-18
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] The leader of the revolution, Sayyed
...Arabic term meaning your/his lordship. Groveling in His Exalted Presence is encouraged...
Abdul-Malik al-Iran's Houthi sock puppets
...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is God is Great, Death to Americaâ„¢, Death to Israel, a curse on the Jews They like shooting off... ummm... missiles that they would have us believe they make at home in their basements. On the plus side, they did murder Ali Abdullah Saleh, which was the only way the country was ever going to be rid of him...
, confirmed that the Yemen
...an area of the Arabian Peninsula sometimes mistaken for a country. It is populated by more antagonistic tribes and factions than you can keep track of...
i front continues, and the number of ships linked to the Israeli enemy that have been targeted, along with the Americans and the British, has reached 196 ships.
Targetting is easy. Actually hitting the blessed things is another thing altogether — they will keep moving about so!
In a speech on the latest developments in Leb
...an Iranian satrapy until recently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers...
and Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, Thursday, he stated that Yemeni support continues with missiles and drones to occupied Paleostine, with operations this week carried out using 25 ballistic and cruise missiles and drones.

He pointed out that the Yemeni people's participation in the pro-Paleostine rallies was the largest in the world, responding to the call of the Islamic Resistance® Movement, Hamas
..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
. No other nation showed such turnout, as happened in Yemen, which reflects their deep interaction and solidarity with the mujahideen in Paleostine.
and lack of anything else to do
Regarding the US-British aggression against Yemen, including the most recent incident yesterday, Sayyid Abdul-Malik explained that the American and British enemies continue to try to entangle others against us, but they have failed so far and will continue to fail.

Sayyid al-Houthi also referred to the ongoing propaganda campaign by the enemies against our dear people, conducted by American mouthpieces and writers working in service of the US The campaign, aimed at targeting the internal front of the Yemeni people, has not stopped.

He emphasized that the Yemeni people are highly aware, fully understanding the purpose of this propaganda and the enemies' objectives, which aim to divert attention from the honorable and great stances of our people in supporting Gaza.

Sayyid Abdul-Malik reaffirmed that the Yemeni people remain steadfast in their position in support of Paleostine and Lebanon, and against the Zionist Jews and their allies and partners. Yemen continues its jihad militarily, in the media, economically, and through popular activities, with its weekly million-person demonstrations being part of this jihad, expressing loyalty, sincerity, and unwavering steadfastness.

In conclusion, Sayyid Abdul-Malik renewed his call for the Yemeni people to participate in the honorable million-person march tomorrow in Sana'a and other governorates, as an act of jihad in the path of God and in support of the Paleostinian, Lebanese people.

#2  Its a narrow passage of water. On one side you got somalia and eritrea with just a tiny safe spot Djibouti where sadly the chinese moved in

The other side you got Saudi, Oman and Yemen

The ships got to go through there to get from China to Europe

It is a choke point

So maybe Nato better stop destabilising Russia and instead go back to patrolling the shipping lanes that bring the goods to europe

#1  Targetting is easy.

Targeting is easy and cheap and inflicts great monetary damage on the World economy, because these activities deter free commercial navigation.

Granted, the West has the capabilities to easily neutralize the Houthi piracy threat, but there's no political will.

A bad precedent is being set.
