thanks Israel you are doing the world a great service.

[Old_Geezer]

Since the Houthis were attacking international shipping of various nations it seems shaming the response hasn't already been achieved ages ago, and that it has been left to the Israelis.

[davebro3]

The TV appeals for aid to Yemen really get my goat - just tell the dummies to STOP KILLING EACH OTHER!

And yes - nations whose shipping has been affected should be taking on the Houthis.

They deserve all they got.

I thought the US/UK had sorted some bases there a while back?

But yes, we all have a lot to thank Israel for whilst our politcal dummies all fiddlw about.

Nice to see the Far Right of AB applauding calling humans, vermin - now what is the German word for that - would untermenschen fit ?

If you dehumanise a group ( houthis = vermin) then your conscience wont bother you when you kill them

[Old_Geezer]

I understand your objection: but definition 2 ?

//then your conscience wont bother you when you kill them//

Does their conscience bother them when they kill people?

[ToraToraTora]

PP: "If you dehumanise a group ( houthis = vermin) then your conscience wont bother you when you kill them" - a bit like Islam does with the rest of us then.

[naomi24]

Those people are already dehumanised.  No normal human being would do what they do.  I don't think we need worry about extending the slightest respect to them.

It souds like some people think it's alright to copy their behaviour.

//It souds like some people think it's alright to copy their behaviour.//

Or simply stop their behaviour?
