I do think the US in particular should have pulled the leash on Netanyahu. Sure felt like they had a different understanding of who has the power in that relationship. (Thanks, AIPAC.)
However, regardless of the US stance, I think s genocide happens there no matter what. Even so, slowly and constantly over 30 years is better than devastation over 30 months.
We would indeed prefer shipping to Suez. That’s why we deploy navy ships to the Red Sea. Doesn’t mean that we asked for this particular strike on Jemen (which as many already pointed out is unlikely to affect piracy much). You can’t say you do something for Europe when to my knowledge no European nation asked for this “aide”.
European here: we did not ask for your help, we do not particularly want you to bomb the houthis (or anyone in the Middle East for that matter).
… You want shipping through the Suez.
I can think of a better way to get the Houthis to stop attacking ships in the Suez
Give Israel to Iran?

It’s not a black and white situation.
I don’t even have the words for how insanely fucked up this mindset is.
This bombing campaign won’t prevent missile attacks on shipping. If anything, it will further motivate ships to avoid the area.
