The Houthi-led government in Yemen announced that it had forced an Israel-bound ship to turn back as it was sailing through the Red Sea in violation of the warnings issued on Saturday
I don’t know why @ComradeSalad wants to believe Ansar Allah is just three kids in a trenchcoat, incapable of identifying, targeting, or denying corporate shipping vessels from passing through a famously thin & fragile choke point right off their own shores.
It’s likely I think that this has been in their playbook for a years, and the people executing it now have been training for it for who knows how long.
Most of what I hear, it's like Palestine is chaos, which it is, of course. That doesn't mean there aren't Palestinians calmly making decisions. I remember they spoke about a plan to ask their allies for certain types of help when the time's right. We might be seeing that now. I think they've planned for the long haul and I don't think they'll be deterred by Israel's brutality (the opposite, I would believe). It's easy to forget all this when the news is doing war-gore porn 24-7 as if Palestinians are entertainment.
