      attacking civilian transports

      They are enforcing a blockade, just like any other nation is allowed to enforce a blockade. Israel attacks civilian transports all the time to enforce blockades. This action is not only respectable, it’s legal.

          It’s literally how blockades are enforced and have been enforced for centuries. You just want to make it seem special to justify the bombing campaign.

              Israel is attacking civilians. Yemen is enforcing a blockade in its own territory to stop Israel from attacking civilians. If you protest Yemen’s blockade, you support Israeli attacks on civilians. You are not a good person.

                  So are you saying it’s not a legal blockade?

                  I don’t worry about looking like an asshole when arguing with people like you.

      Yemen’s territorial waters bottleneck the Red Sea. By international law, their actions are valid.
