5:21 Houthis said they care about human rights, so it must be true? Just don’t look at the starving Yemenis, the child soldiers forced to fight, the slavery, and the 375k that have died in their civil war, including defenseless women, children, and elderly.
All those innocent civilians in Yemen who died, died because US weapons bought by Saudis were aimed at civilians pin pointed by US intellegence supplied to the Saudies.
Strongly disagree with the first guest. The strikes have not failed to deter the Houthi's. Look at the intensity of the attacks in the red sea before and after American and British strikes began. I wonder if the guest has a particular bias 🙄🙄
The number of attacks decreased because the major shipping lines went around Africa. And many of the ships going through the Red sea claimed they were Chinese and thus avoided attack.
Yemen had never begged anyone on aid, it's the people that make money of it that says Yemen wants aid, they have more courage then any western society @@cj42404
Like the past 5 years? Us asian farmers are quite stubborn bunch eh? Might want to be careful, one day those missile could found their way back to USA.
I love how they use the term retaliatory. If your providing material support which is undoubtedly aiding a genocide, and you have troops in foreign countries in which your unwanted by the population, I’m sorry but at that point your the aggressor and the aggressor cant be deemed retaliating to a fight he’s started, so that false by definition. The U.S. is not retaliating, they are violating the sovereignty of many countries in support of a genocide and in violation of international law.
The amount of money this is costing is ridiculous and skewed. The absurdity of not calling for a ceasefire to calm down the situation is an exhibition of hubris.
The reality is that both sides are already at war. The media is lying to us. This is an escalation, and it will carry on escalating until the hand of the US is forced to stop the Israeli blood lust on Palestine.
Not even 2 words before it was all personal (albeit supposedly expert) opinion. Dw editors/producers, you are meant to be a news channel, get people that report the facts, not your/their opinions & biases. That goes for all stories, news shaping has gotten out of control and has led to a general mistrust of news and facts by the public and news organizations have themselves to blame for that.
@@jamesgreen1116Is being historically illiterate a criteria for commenting on DW? The Taliban was crushed almost twenty years ago. It was the failure of the puppet state propped up by the US and absence of ISAF troops on the ground that allowed the taliban to come back. Despite the power fantasies, the Taliban was absolutely BTFO’d. The problem was the US thought it could “nation build” in a backwater like Afghanistan.
@@jamesgreen1116 The Taliban were hiding in the sewers after the US took control of Afghanistan. They only came back after the US finally realized that it can't create a functioning country with its military when the people living there have no desire to be a real country. It was certainly a political defeat for the US, but militarily the US owned Afghanistan for 20 years.
@@margin606 I don't know, maybe stop covering for them! Push for a ceasefire rather than vetoing every action against Israel. Stop bombing, Yemen, Syria and Iraq. Stop giving military aid and money to Israel.. That just at the top of my head.
Maybe hamas should've not attacked? Or are they immune to any blame? They started this thing, but I haven't seen a single person from Palestine or anywhere else in the middle-east blame them. It suits the middle-eastern mindset very well. It's always someone else's fault.
@@mutkaluikkunen3926 I didn't think murdering over 12000 children is considered self defense? And please don't use the argument of Hamas using them as human shield. I mean who is dropping the bombs. If you don't find Israel reactions is way over the top excessive, then you should really change your definition. You might ask for what Israel todo? Maybe not be a apartheid state, and treat Palestinians with dignity and actually work on creating peace. This not me saying this, Israeli Human Rights Watch said this.
The conflict and hatred between nations is sowed by particular interested parties. It is a small rootless international clique that incites nations against each other and does not want them to have peace. It is a group of people who make their home everywhere and nowhere, who live in Berlin today, Brussels tomorrow, Paris the day after that and then again in Prague, Vienna and London, who feel at home everywhere.
The US and UK have no hate for Yemen, or even the Houthis. They just want to see international shipping lanes through the Red Sea restored for commercial vessels and workers (civilians).
@@ironknee6879Yes they do. The US supported the Saudi war against the Houthis and provided the military intel that had the Saudis kill so many civilians.
@@ironknee6879they don't have any right to it. If yemen wants to sanction it is their right just like US and UK sanction other countries like Russia, Iran, Venezuela etc.
All these proxy wars remind me of the video of dogs on both sides of the fence barking viciously at each other but as soon as the human opens the gate they’re all calm 😂
I thought PM Rishi was only justifying UK's joint attacks in Yemen recently that the Hosthis' hostile actions in the Red Sea had nothing to do with the Gaza War. Your esteemed guest suggesting otherwise "must" be wrong then!?!
His goal is to stop Israel being annihilated, which Iran has vowed to do. Can't blame Israel for retaliation given the circumstances. You do what you have to do.
The US possesses satellite mapping and navigation abilities which are located on the North American homeland. So the militia can keep on fighting till eternity but get nowhere unless they take the fight to the homeland.
I guess you also underestimated the Taliban and Russia, Vietnamese. Rip American aggrogance. America doesn't fight wars it in the business of money laundrying.
I don't know about that, but I can see their air defense isn't worth a damn and I feels orry for Iranian people if their government tries to act like tough talk will win a war
I’m from Yemen, don’t worry folks this just a game for news by both sides 😅 Each want to show their people that they’re 💪 No one has been hurt and targets in empty water by Huthies and empty land by US.
We are moving past deterrence, and toward force degradation of the Iranian proxies. As Iran continues to press the attack with its agents it moves closer to open war with the US. We are two steps away from attacking the Iranian manufacturing and supply chain. From their open war becomes likely. Continuing along this course would be a terrible misstep by Iran.
What is the value achievable by retaliation? Deterrence seemingly has very low efficacy on these groups, or even negative effects since these groups might get more support by hate than they can loose for the suffering their actions bring. The other unbalance is that the US is engaged directly, while Iran, accepting these groups are its proxies and it is the orchestrator of the sum of their strategies, is not. Furthermore, it seems that the logistic exchange balance also disfavors the US. Yes, the US offsets these by its military might, but so far not to the point of moving the factors toward an end, and how long will it then be willing to play on these terms? It seems to me that the US is being played into a weak place, and that there isn't really much that it can do about it. Remember years ago when the US forces were planning to deal with two major regional crisis? I am counting three potential areas today, that might well become concurrent if those leaders don't have enough brains in their skulls.
Nah. Someone somewhere will hate us for it. China didn't care when we took Japan's oil preventing them from being conquered. Russia didn't care that our lend lease built the soviet union and no one will care if we stopped isreal. America should focus on the UK, Australia and Japan and let the EU watch over that side of the world. The only way to stop what's happening in Gaza is to enforce our will and that aint happening. We're beyond tired of being in others conflicts.
Won't happen. We blamed Iraq for 9/11 when Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 and ~ 1 million civilians died in the war we started. What is sad to see is Germany supporting the same action by Israel to day that it did during WW2.
Go to the source with that message. This all began with Putin. He attacked Ukraine, then when it didn’t go as planned, he persuaded Iran to get involved in Israel, and the Middle East turned into a hornets nest as it often does.
@@d.k.1545We reached for peace in Vietnam when the American people saw through the lies of the neocons that N. Vietnam was a threat to the US. They saw through the lies because 56,000 american troops had died in Vietnam.
For the record. "H" has been strike by other for more than 26000+ times. But continue to get stronger. 😆 U$A can't doing anything. Unless using ground troop.
"i pity the country that comes up against us, the sinigy of our air ,land and sea forces to control the battle space and to seize the high ground is devastating, all countries respect the power of the United States and they respect how dominant we are in these regions, And we get better and better and better" - General Franklin Blaisdell
HOW HARD IS THIS TO UNDERSTAND? IF YOU ARE GOING TO CURE FROM CANCER YOU OPERATE ON THE CANCER FIRST THEN YOU ALSO REMOVE SOME SURROUNDING TISSUE! NOT ON THE VERSE. SAME THING WITH IRAN AND ITS PROXIES!
Who is paying the Houthis? Lots of young Houthi men employed as terrorists rather than traditional or any other work. Where is the Yemeni authorities, don’t they have any of their own forces or is it only Houthis. Why isn’t Saudi helping weed these terrorists out?
7-2-2024 Chinese cargo ships passing through the Red Sea receive discounts on insurance premiums, while American and British ships are more expensive or even not insured A report on the 7th quoted relevant practitioners as saying that due to the impact of the Red Sea conflict, the shipping insurance market is being graded. Underwriters differentiate between the carriers they insure, and premiums for Chinese cargo ships are more favorable. Chinese ships sailing in the Red Sea can obtain shipping insurance discounts below the market price, while related ships in the United States, Britain and Israel need to pay higher insurance premiums, and are even directly excluded from coverage by many insurance companies.
[4:07] The spark was Oct 7 provided by the Iranians and their proxies who better tread lightly or they could escalate their way into another Trump presidency. In addition to the US, there is a General Election in the UK, in a few months time.
Who will support the US and UK? In light of the decline of American hegemony that continued for 80 years after World War II and the historic decline of Anglo-Saxons, we should make French an international language again.
