    “Just because they are stopping a genocide does not make them heroes”

    Yes it does.

        The stopped when food came into Gaza. At this point it is undeniable.

          Everybody congratulate the Houthis for singlehandedly stopping Israel’s attacks.

          I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. We all agree that they are doing their trading vessel attacks because they are against Israeli war crimes. Sure that is undeniable, but that’s not what is at question. The Houthis do a lot of other stuff, inclusive of their own war crimes. So they’re not good guys, they’re not heroes, they’re not a single issue group that only exists to stop Israel.

          They’re also not stopping the genocide.

            In this genocide they are the good guys.

            America does far more war crimes than the Houthis. Are you out there denouncing Bernie Sanders because he is part of America and thus not a good guy?

              If Vermont Independents were killing civilians and he stayed in the group I would denounce Bernie Sanders yes. I am not denouncing the entire country of Yemen.

              You don’t get to pick conflict-by-conflict. “Going down in history as heroes” is about the totality of human action.

                  I’m not following how you’re getting to that conclusion about my stance with that link. He’s a national politician talking about what the United States should do (in 2023). Clearly not as an acting member of a militant group.

                    Adolf Hitler was part of an official nation state while he committed genocide too. Weird criteria.
