Reminder that the Red Sea attacks have still resulted in zero casualties. In response, the US-UK has killed 22 fighters.

Disrupting trade is punishable by death.

Attacking civilian ships is generally considered a dick move.

It's a gigachad move and the only morally correct thing to do when they're supplying a genocide.

But they're not just attacking ships supplying aid to Israel. They are attacking whatever passes by them. If it was to support Gaza, why would they have attacked a clearly marked Chinese ship?

Pretty sure they stopped attacking Chinese and Russian ships since they stopped supplying "israel" and co. through the Red Sea after the Yemeni gov told them to. There were a few misfires after that but for the most part they're left alone.

Hell, a br*tish ship misqueraded as a Chinese ship a few days ago to avoid being attacked. Probably why Yemen is ending up hitting a few Chinese ships too.

Regardless, China has condemned the US and UK's bombing of Yemen. As anyone with a hint of morals should.

Curious how you logic justifies their attacks on western ships, but not the west's response to these attacks.

[–] Alsephina@lemmy.ml 4 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah western countries and their ships should probably consider not supplying or supporting the genocide.

And if you don't want to be retaliated against, don't attack ships.

This idiot would've told Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising to not attack the nazis if they don't want to be retaliated against.
