Ansarallah has done more to lift the illegal blockade of Gaza than literally anyone else on planet earth and its working too.


Question: Aren't you one of those who says that targeting "civilians" for any reason is unacceptable and "terrorism"?

If so, how can you support the targeting of civilian cargo vessels and claim it's somehow a "good thing"?

Also, given the government of Gaza (Hamas) has literally attacked and murdered over a thousand Israeli "civilians" how have you determined the blockade of Gaza is "illegal"?

Mildly curious here.

The blockade of the Red Sea will be lifted (supposedly) when aid enters Gaza. That's a pretty noble cause imo. These ships are warned beforehand that if it has ties to israel/us/UK it will be targeted. These ships get warned multiple times before fired on once they ignore these orders. Afaik there's been very few casualties because Ansarallah is only looking to damage/scuttle them, not outright kill them.

The blockade of Gaza has been ongoing since 2006, Norman finkelstein does a food job of explaining this if you're curious about it.

Compare the civilian casualties between Gaza and the Red Sea and you can see for yourself who's actually targeting civilians.

Now it's time to laugh at kraut incompetence:

The German warship's radar systems incorrectly recognized a drone circling overhead as hostile. The “Hessen” then fired two rockets at them.

A blessing in disguise for the Americans: Both German SM2 interceptor missiles did not reach their target for technical reasons, but instead fell into the sea without achieving anything.

The competency crisis is real, this is what happens when you stuff your military with diversity hires.

So it's okay to kill civilians if it's to lift blockades to people who kill civilians. But if Israel kills civilians, they're the big bad?

Your idea of "nobility" is a tad bizarre, friend. If Gaza doesn't want to be blockaded, they can stop attacking Israel. Why've they been blockaded since 2006? Because they've been killing Israeli "civilians" and elected a government based on their stated goal to wipe Israel from existence. Is that okay? Can you acknowledge that?

What has Syria done that makes you want to bomb them? Has Assad's government touched you in a no-no place?

Seriously, Iran is backing the Houthis, Hamas, Hezbollah, and others. The Houthis are targeting civilian cargo vessels. What'd Syria do?

Yes, this is a common event in the Muslim world. Assad's government used to take action against those who did that. Then the US sicced ISIS on them, and now their government doesn't have the control to prevent it.

What do you want? The US fought under Obama to collapse the secular government of Syria that opposes such behavior. They failed, but they did manage to severely reduce their sphere of control within their own country.

Trying for emotional appeals over how Islam treats it's women is pretty stupid. If a video like that is all it takes to make you want to bomb a nation, pretty much every nation in the middle east other than Israel deserves to be bombed. :)

I don't understand why people don't like Assad

He's a well groomed cool Western educated guy, who is secular & opposes Islamism

The US has ran propaganda against him forever because he is a Ba'athist
