The targeting of another U.S.-owned commercial ship Wednesday shows the militant group remains intent on continuing its attacks in the face of multiple rounds of U.S. military airstrikes.
The Houthis launched anti-ship ballistic missiles at the U.S.-owned, flagged and operated commercial ship Maersk Detroit as it was transiting the Gulf of Aden, according to a statement from the U.S. Central Command. The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Gravely shot down two missiles and a third fell into the water. There were no indications of damage or injuries in the attack.
The U.S. military has been conducting airstrikes against the Houthis to degrade their capabilities since Jan.11, after several weeks of attacks on commercial ships by the militant group.
Such a low effort take. There is absolutely no genocide being committed in Israel. Virtually every single civilian killed was warned to evacuate and warned again before they got blown up. Why are they sharing a country, let alone a room, with Hamas members? They are proud to die as martyrs to earn sympathy of useful idiot westerners named NoneOfUrBusiness.
So they never declared safe zones, then dropped bombs on those safe zones? Or walked the streets shooting people literally standing there? Or shot a guy holding a white flag minutes after he gave an interview? Or shot Israeli hostages holding a white flag by mistake because they thought they were Palestinians?
Blah blah blah. Research even one of the claims you’re repeating. There have been warnings on warnings. Yes. Even after telling people to evacuate south and then certain buildings on the route being blown up, additional texts and calls were sent to warn people in the area of the bombings.
There’s been about seven people shot holding white flags and pretending to be hostages with white flags is one of Hamas’s martyrdom tactics, designed to cause people like you to have sympathy for actual terrorists.
The idf literally reported killing 3 hostages themselves. And there’s video evidence of people standing in the road doing nothing when they were shot.
I wouldn’t bother. I don’t think any number will satisfy this person. In another convo they told me that it’s just tens of thousands of lives that are suffering to save 10 million lives in the future…
Now do the other 24,997 deaths.
I’d wish for you to have to live through a warzone between two ideologies while your normal ass is just trying to make a living through it all, but with my luck you’re one of my dumbass neighbors literally or figuratively.
And that wouldn’t be fair to the rest of the innocents around you.
I’m shocked it hasn’t happened to me before, but for the first time online in 15 years I actually feel this sentiment; fuck you very much and all you stand for.
Fuck you. I didn’t start the war.
Fuck you, you’re doing your best to work to continue it
So killing people holding white flags with their hands up are a threat?
How about all the innocent children and babies?
Also Hamas?
No, they’re innocent children and babies. And it’s very sad that Hamas uses them as human shields. That is part of their terrorism.
The sooner the world gets rid of Hamas, the sooner the people of Palestine might have a chance at a normal life.
It’s a shame that Hamas has such high support in Palestine and they took that support and used it to dig a bunch of collapsing tunnels underneath their cities, buy bombs and rockets, and then murder 1,200 innocent civilians and first responders to provoke a significantly more powerful force, betraying their people and their land.
Like yeah it’s very sad that all these kids are dying. It is atrocious. However it is the fault of Hamas. They are the ones stopping people from leaving everytime they are warned to do so.
You can look up the warnings yourself, images and recordings. Look up one of these civilian catastrophes that you’re so concerned about and instead of just repeating the 140 character talking point you read on Qatari state media or something, see what actually happened.
I’m not making excuses for the couple dozen or so actual war crimes that have occurred. And I will even admit that the IDF has a culture of disregard. But the idea that all of these bombings are simply indiscriminate targeting of civilians is absolutely bullshit nonsense, divorced from reality and unsupported by facts available to anyone within thirty seconds of research.
No one said all, I’m sure a few of the bombings were legitimate, but if you want me to trust a word out of the IDF’s mouth, you better show me forty decapitated babies and people that are named after the days of the week.
Israel lost all moral backing when they decided to use dumb bombs to kill 10’s of thousands
Israel says they have killed 9000 Hamas soldiers, destroyed fucking only God knows how many buildings and they are attacking un facilities.
you will have to forgive me I’m sure all of this is just antisemitism
Nah I don’t think criticizing Israel is antisemitic. Everyone has raised excellent questions. Just seems people are not answering them logically and with real world consequences in mind. I’d call a lot of it virtue signaling. Look, everyone agrees genocide is wrong and cannot be tolerated. Everyone agreed targeting civilians for the sake of targeting civilians is a war crime.
Those three tank shells at the UN center today last night sure seem like a war crime. I have about 50/50 level of confidence that if it is a warm crime, those responsible will be prosecuted by the Israeli militaries traditions of justice.
I have zero confidence whatsoever that war crimes committed by Hamas or anyone in Palestine will be investigated or at all treated by authorities as a criminal matter, but would rather be rewarded with money and praise, and excused not under laws of religious zealotry.

Oh I see. I said I don’t think authorities in Palestine will investigate. NGOs will. They are not the authorities.
