Video shows the moment when the British oil tanker that was hit by Yemeni missile, sank into the sea.

It's going to be a disaster for the environment of the red sea and the coastal lines of north east Africa and Arabian peninsula.

This bloody war is unnecessary and doesn't have any positive outcome for anyone.

All because of blind support of the genocodal maniacs in Tel Aviv and their lap dogs in Washington and London.

Bombing Muslims for Peace

A few quotes:

(...) Right now, of course, the world is witnessing yet another U.S. bombing campaign, the latest in a series that seems all too predictable (and futile), meant to teach the restless rebels of Iraq, Syria, Yemen, and possibly even Iran a lesson when it comes to messing with the United States of America. (...)

Israel is systematically destroying Gaza, rendering it essentially uninhabitable for those Palestinians who survive the ongoing rampage. In fact, early in its war of annihilation, Israeli leaders cited the Allied destruction of the German city of Dresden in 1945 in support of their own atrocious air and ground campaign against the Palestinians.

Looking at this dispassionately as a military historian, the Dresden reference makes a certain twisted sense. In World War II, the Americans and their British allies in their “combined bomber offensive” destroyed German cities indiscriminately, seeing all Germans as essentially Nazis, complicit in the crimes of their government, and so legitimate targets. Something similar is true of the right-wing Israeli government today. It sees all Palestinians as essentially members of Hamas and thus complicit in last year’s brutal October 7th attacks on Israel, making them legitimate targets of war, Israeli- (and American-) style. Just like the United States, Israel claims to be “defending democracy” whatever it does. Little wonder, then, that Washington has been so willing to send bombs and bullets to its protégé as it seeks “peace” through massive firepower and genocidal destruction. (...)

Putting [the issue of genocide] aside, it’s undeniable that Israel has been using indiscriminate bombing attacks and a devastating invasion in a near-total war against Palestinians living on that 25-mile-long strip of land, an approach that calls to mind the harrowing catchphrase “Exterminate all the brutes!” from Joseph Conrad’s novel Heart of Darkness. (...)

Try to imagine such events from the perspective of a historian writing in the year 2200. Might that future scribe not refer to repeated U.S. invasions of, incursions into, and bombing campaigns across the Middle East as a bloody crusade, launched under the (false) banner of democracy with righteous vengeance, if not godly purpose, in mind? Might that historian not suggest that such a “crusade” was ultimately more about power and profit, domination and control than (as advertised) “freedom”? And might that historian not be impressed (if not depressed) by the remarkable way the U.S. brought seemingly unending chaos and death to the region over such a broad span of time?

Consider these facts. More than 22 years after the 9/11 attacks, the U.S. still has at least 30,000 troops scattered across the Middle East. At least one Navy carrier strike group, and often two, dominate the regional waters, while striking numbers of military bases (“Little Americas”) are still sprinkled across countries ranging from Kuwait to Bahrain, from Qatar to the United Arab Emirates and beyond. So many years later, about 900 U.S. troops still illegally occupy part of Syria (not coincidentally, where that country produces most of its oil) and 2,500 more remain in Iraq, even though the government there would like them to depart.

#Biden administration is looking for ways to punish South Africa for pushing Genocide case against Israel.

The #GenocideJoe not only supporting this rogue nation, protecting it by vetoes, arming it with 1000s of tons of weapons, financing it with billions of dollars, bombing #Yemen for disrupting the #Genocide, he now going after South Africa for trying to stop the ongoing genocide.

I'm sure the liberal Americans are loving their "not Trump" maniac president and will come up with excuses to justify even this outrageous act.

As a result of the wars unleashed by the U.S. after September 11, 2001, 38,000,000 civilians were displaced.

This is the second highest result in world history. Only World War II resulted in more refugees.

Direct military aggressions, the so-called "war on terror" which led to the creation of ISIS, and economic strangulation have all led to disastrous consequences for the people of a number of states in the Middle East and North Africa, forcing ordinary people to flee their homes, cities, villages and states to other countries.

According to a report https://t.co/MLXyekTZTQ by the Watson Institute for International Studies (an interdisciplinary research center at Brown University, Rhode Island, USA) and with the assistance of Boston University:

  1. #Afghanistan - 5.9 million refugees
  2. #Pakistan - 3.7 million refugees
  3. #Yemen - 4.6 million refugees
  4. #Somalia - 4.3 million refugees
  5. #Philippines - 1.8 million refugees
  6. #Libya - 1.2 million refugees
  7. #Syria - 7.1 million refugees

The report is based on data from 2001 to 2020 + some data collected in 2021.

It is based on the UN data, U.S. documents and information from public sources.

However, the report itself states that 38,000,000 is a very conservative estimate and in reality, the figure can reach from 49,000,000 to 60,000,000, which actually reaches the figures of World War II.

...

To these processes can be added the huge number of refugees from #Ukraine after the U.S.-backed coup d'état and civil war that broke out there.

The world is waging war on its children, in an obscene mockery of international law

The Guardian

From Gaza to Ukraine, from Sudan to Myanmar, youngsters are being raped, abducted, maimed, killed and even recruited as soldiers.

(Text continues underneath the photo.)

Callous disregard for civilian lives and safety is a disturbing feature of modern armed conflict. From Ukraine and Gaza to Sudan and Myanmar, respect for the “laws of war” is being eroded or is non-existent. Non-combatants are deliberately targeted. Most shocking, and unforgivable, is the wanton harm – the UN term is “grave violations” – done to children.

In his latest report on children and conflict, UN secretary general António Guterres warned that children “continued to be disproportionately affected” by war-related violence and abuses. By this, he meant killing and maiming, rape, sexual violence, abductions, school attacks and recruitment of child soldiers. All were on the rise, he said. (...)

How shaming all this is. How truly shocking. That adults and nations choose to fight each other is normal, though regrettable. But a world war on children? How did it come to this?

Why isn't this the front page of papers world wide?

Imagine being so evil that you block food and medicine to enter a city with 2 million inhabitants.

How can anyone be this evil?

And of course, not a single IDF soldier is there to stop them or disrupt their criminal actions.

In the mean time, 100s of fully loaded trucks from UAE/Saudi enter Israel without inspections or hindee to help feeding Israelis and bypass the #blockade by #Houtis in #Yemen.
This is government sponsored Genocide. Nothing less.

Italian to lead EU’s Aspides mission joining US response to Houthis in Red Sea, reports say.

The fascist leadership of Italy joining the assault against the poorest country in the region to safeguard transport to genocidal regime of Israel.

The same bastards won't stop selling weapons to Israel to prevent them from using it to commit genocide in Gaza.

Escalation of the Conflict in the Red Sea: New Coalition Strikes on #Yemen⚡️

🗓 By morning, more detailed data appeared about the massive 👉 night attack of coalition forces on targets of the Ansarallah group as part of Operation Poseidon Archer.

▪️ The Houthi press service said that a total of 48 missile strikes were carried out, most of which fell on the provinces of Sana'a, Taiz and Al-Hodeidah. Al-Bayda, Al-Hijjah and Al-Saada were also affected.

▪️ This correlates with nightly information from local Yemeni sources, who named in detail the settlements in which missile arrivals were noted.

🔹 The coalition mainly used Tomahawk sea-based cruise missiles (about 30), as well as F/A-18E/F and FGr.4 Typhoon carrier-based aircraft from #Akrotiri.

❗️However, as before, despite the massive nature of the attacks, the targets were not chosen very selectively. The territories of former military units and port facilities came under attack again.

🔹 Not any significant damage was confirmed by the Houthi retaliatory attack. There are no details yet, but the launch of two ballistic missiles from #Yemen was recorded.

📌 Some media outlets started talking about the defeat of an #US F-35 fighter, which allegedly crashed in #SaudiArabia, but the point is that the F-35s did not fly to #US military bases in the #MiddleEast, and they did not participate in the attack on #Yemen.

In Biden’s case today, these are the actions of a desperado, a war-loving bumbling puppet who is over or under or out of his head as he feigns outrage at the killing of three soldiers who were placed in a spot where their lives were at risk because they were cogs in an imperial war machine.

Pawns in the game. A very dangerous game in which the Zionists leaders of Israel are as desperate as Biden and whose secret operatives are no doubt plotting a desperate scheme to try to expand the war. Who is jerking whose chain may be questionable, but the dogs of war are barking.

#ISIS haa stepped up their disgusting criminal activities in the shadows of #Israel, #US, #UK and Europe war with axis of resistance.

The emboldened ISIS is gaining power and popularity in most places in west #Asia and north and central Africa.

It's really sad and upsetting to see that once again (just like Obama's time) these extremists are surging while the US is bombing and killing the people who defeated them last time in #Yemen, #Iraq and #Syria to safeguard the ongoing genocide in #Gaza and their illegal and immoral occupation in Syria and Iraq.

Explosive kills school children in north-east #Nigeria

At least six people, some of them school children, have been killed in north-east Nigeria by an explosive device which they had mistaken for scrap metal.

Police and local officials in Borno state said the blast occurred in a building at an Islamic school on Saturday.

Reports say pupils often collect and sell the metal to local communities.

Despite a ban on the practice, scavenging for scrap is still common in the area, which is plagued by Islamist violence.
