A US operation halfway around the planet where no civilian casualties have taken place.
Defense.
No civilian causalities…because we’ve been shooting down all the missiles. The Houthis have been firing off rockets, drones, and missiles pretty indiscriminately at passing cargo boats, some of which do have US nationals aboard. If the US and allies hadn’t been there, there’s a good chance there’d be a half dozen cargo ships at the bottom of the Red Sea, and then there would be civilian causalities.
They also fired directly at US warships preceding this attack.
Hmm. I wonder why they’d fire on a hostile fleet that sailed halfway around the world and that had basically already declared war on them. Particularly when said fleet previously implemented a blockade that caused a famine, which killed hundreds of thousands, mostly children.
If a ship is in international waters, it has every right to be there, regardless of nationalities involved.
Does that include Iranian ships?
Yes it does. Ships of any nation have a right to transit international waters.
When Iranian ships (or ships of any nation, really) engage in acts of privacy, then they open themselves up to the consequences, whatever those may be.
Yes they do. I presume from your stance you are in favour of the US seizing or sinking Iranian ships when they are in waters the US controls just like the Houthis are attempting to do?
So then you believe international waters are waters that America controls?

Right, cargo ships are well known to be completely free of human beings just trying to do their job
Defending Israel’s right to commit genocide. I wonder if they plan to do genocide in Yemen again.

NATO was also founded by a literal Nazi.
Since when is Israel part of NATO?
I tried to find something but I could not find any attacks on NATO assets. They were just attacking Israeli interests, which are currently committing a genocide in Gaza. Not to mention war crimes.
Worth noting that the USA gave 0 shits when the Saudi’s were killing the Yemeni people, for years. Here in Canada we sold the Saudis weapons which they eventually used against Yemen. It was a big deal here. Our conservatives broke the deal and our Liberals delivered on it. Both have blood on their hands.
I’m absolutely disgusted by the behaviour of the Canadian government wrt Yemen, and again wrt Gaza.
I just really don’t understand why we’re so keen to do whatever our southern overlords ask of us.
We even gave up Bombardier’s crown jewel because of US bullshit.
