    This is a fake article: they didn’t call them Houthi rebels and didn’t say they’re Iran-backed even once.

    I doubt they have the capability to do that.

    Airdropping aid in Gaza is an insult to Palestinians? I guess this idiot would prefer that Palestinians starve So much for the lie that Yemen supports Palestinians…

      It is an insult to a people suffering from a famine Americas ally has manufactured, to drop 1% of the needed aid(and kill people doing it) when you could stop the famine by letting the hundreds of truck in that are sitting on the border…

      These airdrops are a farce when there are hundreds of truckloads of aid just sitting there waiting to enter Gaza. The only thing standing in their way is the IOF. The airdrops are theater to assuage American & European liberals.

      Although several countries, including the U.S., have participated in airdrops of aid, Bouloukos described them as “immensely expensive,” “completely inefficient” and “dangerous” and that the only solution to the humanitarian crisis is getting aid in by road.

      This you?

      I truly beleive that this falls under sacrificing yourself to save lives

      Nope. Wrong continent for that. Now if he was on active duty in the IDF you would have an argument.

      Yep, that’s you.

      Anyone justifying the IDF’s actions is cheerleading an intentional genocide. You are cheerleading the intentional murder of over 15,000 children, so far.

      Now that starvation is hitting, those numbers are going to ramp up fast.

      Remember, starvation kills the children of a population first. There is no food in the Gaza Strip because Israel is intentionally blocking its entrance at the Rafah border.

      Here you are, a month later, still justifying genocide and subtly trying to absolve Israel of genocide.

      Stop pretending you care about the people starving. It’s disingenuous, and everyone can see what you are doing.

      You could at least attempt to make it seem like you read the link

      Al-Houthi claimed that “the Israeli occupation is carrying out a crime of the century, with American participation and contribution” from other western countries. He termed the US airdropping of aid into Gaza “an insult” to Palestinians underlining how it has bypassed the official UN channels of aid.
