I wonder if they’ll just call them Houthis in the document and people can get around it by pointing out they donated to Ansar Allah not this non-existent figment of the west’s imagination.

Curious how ISIL changes its name to ISIS and the western media obediently complies with correctly naming it within months yet how long have they been in power and the media insist on using a slur for them? Almost like maybe they’re not a tool of western power while ISIS is…

It’s not a slur, it’s the tribe of “Hussein Al-Houthi”

Oh sorry. But someone here did say it is not what they want to be called. So it’s a kind of disrespectful way of addressing them.

Because the houthis are just a single group out of the “coalition” that is ansar allah.

commercial ships connected to the Zionist entity which is currently massacring and starving Palestinians, wonder why you left that out.

It can be for both (i hope you aren’t shedding tears over commercial ships delivering weapons to Israel)

If you’re supplying an ethnostate currently committing a genocide with resources, you’re already worse than the “civilians” in Nazi Germany.

Specially when you’ve already been warned not to.
