This was the first reaction from Houthis since the US and UK launched strikes against their bases and launch sites in Yemen.

        Lmao what a liberal US-centric view parroting what their media says.

        Ansarallah is an anti-colonial revolutionary movement originating from Yemen’s grassroots in response to the US and UK-backed Saudi’s bombing and slaughter of the Yemeni population. Look into what’s actually happening here before commenting on it.

        They overthrew. You can’t just take by force and demand recognition

        Lmao ig the Bengalis, Cubans, and all the British colonies should’ve continued to be slaughtered and exploited by “their” governments instead of taking control by force. What a disgusting thing to say.

        no fan of the US. Quite the contrary. But i still prefer them

        is watching their government funding a genocide in real time what-the-hell

        Okay but that’s basically how it’s always been done. “I don’t recognize the American government because they did violence against the British colonial government.” “I don’t recognize the government of Germany because it’s the result of the violent overthrow of the 1933-1945 government.”

        Political power comes from the barrel of a gun, etc etc
