Trump also bizarrely suggested that Ansar Allah has been sinking US ships in its Red Sea attacks, writing They will never sink our ships again! There is no public information about any US ships having been sunk by Houthi attacks. As of this writing there is also no evidence supporting the presidents claim that the people killed in the airstrike were combatants; there are photos online of unarmed Yemeni tribesmen standing in the exact formation seen in the video Trump posted for normal civilian gatherings. Ive seen many observers comparing the video Trump posted to the leaked Collateral Murder video published by WikiLeaks in 2010, which showed US servicemen firing on Iraqi civilians and journalists from Apache helicopters while laughing and joking about the carnage they were inflicting. What hasnt received quite enough attention is the fact that Trump actually shared his Collateral Murder-style snuff film on the 15th anniversary of the day WikiLeaks published Collateral Murder. Yemen is trying to stop an active genocide. Thats what its Red Sea blockade has always been about. Thats the only reason Ansar Allah has ever attacked ships in the region. Their explicit and publicly stated goal is to exert pressure on Israel and its allies to halt the genocide in Gaza. Trump has no moral legitimacy in trying to stop Yemen from doing this. The New York Times reports that the Pentagon is telling Congress behind closed doors that Trumps costly war on Yemen is failing to achieve its objectives despite daily airstrikes, but even if Trump was successful in bombing Yemen into submission, all hed be succeeding in doing is removing economic pressure on Israel to end its ongoing mass atrocity. Trump is actually bombing Yemen to defend Israels right to commit genocide. Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread
