bad

ok, no, but to be real, this is a terrible day for everyone. The collapse caused by these blockages of shipping will probably kill a lot of vulnerable people. This is the cost of US Imperialism, actually. This is just going to make things worse. I know we're distanced enough from it to go hahaha funny but like. In what world can we construe this as good

Yemen explicitly said it is specifically against Israel, in solidarity with the Palestinian people against the genocide, and to support Iran after Israel kept bombing it. The decision is on the western companies, they weren't being targeted but they decided to feel threatened. Of course none of us here think its awesome awesome shipping delays happen, but honestly this is one of the least violent and least lethal ways they could've pushed back against the genocidal aggression, it is one of the most peaceful options. They aren't even stopping shipping the routes will just take longer. People support it because one of the few countries on earth is seriously pushing back against a genocide and Israel bombing other countries and this is far less violent than what Israel has been doing

Keep in mind that this came right after Israel imposed a blockade on any humanitarian aid going to Gaza as well as the fact that Iran had repeatedly warned Israel NOT TO BOMB BEIRUT as part of the ceasefire agreement or they'd respond. If these dogs can't be put on a leash, then this form asymmetrical warfare is justified.
