The Houthis, is a Zaydi Shia Islamist political and military organization that emerged from Yemen in the 1990s. It is predominantly made up of Zaydi Shias, with their namesake leadership being drawn largely from the Houthi tribe. The group has been a central player in Yemen’s civil war, drawing widespread international condemnation for its human rights abuses, including targeting civilians and using child soldiers. The Houthis are backed by Iran. The Houthis emerged as an opposition movement to Yemen president Ali Abdullah Saleh, whom they accused of corruption and being backed by Saudi Arabia and the United States.

He’s giving you the rationale for why the US government is blowing shit up. He didn’t say he agreed with it, and he didn’t say it was right. The Suez Canalis an artificial sea-level waterway in Egypt, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea through the Isthmus of Suez and dividing Africa and Asia (and by extension, the Sinai Peninsula from the rest of Egypt). The 193.30-kilometre-long (120.11 mi) canal is a key trade route between Europe and Asia. The attacks the Houthis carry out disrupt trade. This is making our corporate overlords lose money. Since the US government is just a puppet for corporate interests, yeah, the corporate overlords are letting the US military dogs loose on the Houthis. The corporate overlords and US government don’t give a shit about civilians dying via collateral damage.
