      Some sources state that it was first chanted at the Imam al-Hadi school in Marran in January 2002, while others claim that Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi used it after seeing footage of a young Palestinian dying in his father’s arms during the Second Intifada in 2000

      Well it seems like they’re confusing Judaism with Zionism. They should be explained the difference because their anger is clearly misdirected.

      As for the rest, it’s pretty normal if you look up what America has done to Yemen.

    Am I supporting terrorists by continuing to buy coffee from Yemen?

    I don’t know enough about the houthis to come to a conclusion about them as a whole, but the specific action of blocking shipping in response to the genocide of Palestinians is based.

      “Ha ha, yes, that’ll show those third world countries with no connection to the Israeli genocide or its support!”
