Iran and Israel working together to create another Arab spring and as always it begins in Egypt since its the main base for the Muslim Brotherhood organization which is interestingly created Hamas back in the 20th century!. The plan is revealed more and more as the war continue. The second stage of the Arab Spring begins as it did before with an attack by Israel on Palestine followed by a massive demonstration in the Arab world which leads to instability or overthrowing governments then Iran and its proxies take advantage of the chaos to gain a foot hold in Arab countries.

And again, why are we in the EU depending on the US/UK navy for these issues? EU needs to wake up. We need to stop our dependence on the US for defense. It should be EU coalition ships or NATO ships in general promoting safe passage along the Red Sea. Not just US/UK. Hell, get the Chinese in there too, they have a vested interest in keeping these shipping lanes open.
Do they? China is getting huge amount of cheap oil and gas from Russia and Iran. The oil price going up only hurt their energies in the west. So it is a win for China.
The EU has neglected its military and navy for a long long time just look at how much Ukraine has depleted their wepons and ammo and they are still trying to catch up with production
The Chinese do need the red sea to export their cheap crap to the EU. Also, if oil prices rise the cost to China will also rise (and the Russian oil tankers sail through the red sea as well). The Chinese probably don't want to show their navy is incompetent and lacks power projection capability and they don't want to hurt their Iranian allies.
So your writers didn’t choose to mention how the US navy shot down an Iran Air aircraft full of civilians heading from Bandar Abbas in Iran to Dubai in 1988?
It is always good to have a financial plan. I work with a professional planner and fixed-income strategist in NY. The fixed income portion of your portfolio won't simply serve as a buffer to the volatility of the equity portion of your portfolio, but will provide legitimate income.
Very true, people downplay planners role, until burnt by their mistakes. I remember just after my layoff early 2020 amidst covid outbreak, I needed to stay afloat, hence researched for license-fiduciary advisors. Thankfully, I came across someone of practical knowledge, and decades of experience.
Long term investment is the best now. I invested $7,500 in April last year with CHRIS RYAN STEWART and I top up my trade with $2,000 every week. Now, I'm having over $368,000 on my dashboard. Toping up your trade is really important.
An investment in knowledge pays but investing in both knowledge and passive income yields more gain. But People prefer to spend money on liabilities, rather than investing in assets which are very profitable.
They are attacking the ships because EU is supporting and providing aid to Israel, and so disrupting the EU's economy would also indirectly harm Israel. I think it's pretty obvious
The largest provider of aid to Palestine is the EU. They have been the largest aid provider since 1993. I doubt the Palestinians who depend on EU aid would be happy if that aid is disrupted.
Bro they dont attack Ships randomly, they attack Israeli ships only. All other ships are not touched to avoid hostility from other countries. Houthis only want Israeli ships or ships bound to Israel
"There's already talk about the US taking direct action against Houthi bases in Yemen, which would both risk escalation with Iran, and scupper the ongoing Saudi-Houthi peace talks I'VE BEEN USING HENSON'S PRODUCTS FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW"
Would a third reason be that any disruption in the area will cause shipping insurance to increase or delays and cause disruption across Europe. And thus leading to financial issues across Europe (again), pushing them towards pushing for a cease to hostilities?
It's obviously a difficult time for escalation, especially due to multiple drains on attention, but what I don't get is why they risk upsetting China. The Chinese rely on exports for their economy and they've not really had a chance to flex their military muscles. If china decides to show their naval strength and American ineffectiveness to worry the Asia Pacific, they might bite off considerably more than they can chew.
I don’t think it’s on purpose. The Houthis say they are targeting Israeli ships or ships going to Israel but I suspect they are just shooting at any ship that passes by. I doubt they are looking up ship manifest to check destination or where a ship is registered.
You are absolutely right. The Houthi's seem dead set on provocation. I can only imagine that this reflects a combination of their servile relationship with Tehran and their general desperation after so many years of a failed struggle at home. China has been surprisingly quiet so far - but I suspect that this means they are speaking with the Western powers with naval bases in Djibouti (U.S. and France) through quiet channels and prefer to act quietly, letting the USA draw all the political ire.
one small correction, ships are usually owned, registered, and operated all over the world so Israeli ownership should not be a make or break for if it is a "valid" target.
Even if it is an Israel ship, it is against international law to attack a merchant ship in international waters. Even the Russians have respected that law, and the Russians don't respect rule of law.
@@justanerd414 Why even argue what is or isn't a "valid" target if you don't respect the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea or the Geneva Conventions?
@@badluck5647 yeah there's no need to argue, everyone is a valid target if you have the power from infant children to dying old men and women, that's what been happening nowadays these were just some ships, nothing to difficult to justify

Or to some: the "Yemeni Navy". If you take their word: A nation with nothing doing what it can to make the genocide in Gaza costly to Israel and its allies. "If Europe and Egypt want free passage, they should do something about the genocide in Gaza."
Houthis bouta be a mark in the history book. If we’ve learned anything from the somali pirates the international community can excuse terrorism but they draw the line at disrupting global trade
@@theinstrument122 The difference is the Taliban are doing their crap in someone else's land, not ours and it didn't really affect us. But if the Houthis are directly attacking international trade, that's basically an attack on global finance and stability. No western country is going to allow that to happen. So they'll just declare an all out war on Houthis if needed and put down the rebellion once and for all.

In one day everyone is making fun of the houthis for attacking Saudi Arabia instead of Israel and in the other everyone is scared that they could cause another energy crisis how the turns have tables
nah where you got info from? they attack ships that are linked to Israel somehow or go to their ports, they don’t randomly shoot any ship. (mistakes of course happen) For example Russian ships get save passage
Personally, I am assuming that this is actually just incompetence. The Houthis have been ridiculously incompetent in every facet of their ''government'', I see no reason to assume that they're not stupid enough to think that they're really attacking Israelis ships.
Of the two attacked ships, one was later found out to have connections to an Israeli businessman and the other was scheduled to make a stop in an Israeli port. So far it seems like the Huthis have been largely true to their word, and not targeted ships from neutral countries without reason, although it remains to be seen how this will play out in the long run.
Bogging down the Red Sea for goods flowing to the west makes sense from a Houthi perspective. It's an economic attack of sorts on Israel and its allies in Europe to make the war less sustainable, i.e., shipping insurance for Red Sea routes has already sky-rocketed.
The United States must reassure the Houthis, because the Straits of Babel Mandav are important to the world economy and trade. In Media and the Houthis will continue to attack ships, this will severely damage world trade.
Israel gets most of its imports from its ports on the Mediterranean. Egypt is the biggest loser in this conflict since the Suez Canal brings in revenue.
The only problem with that logic is that the largest supporter of Israel is the USA and the USA is mostly insulated from the attacks. The real question is why would the USA waste time interfering? The USA has spent the last 30 years fighting wars for European security and mostly being admonished for it.
@@ianbelanger7459 Israel a big donor in American politics, the US sells war and weapons, a week or so ago it gave them 15k tank shells, this is an ad for weapons of war and espionage to other countries by Israel, the settler groups along Gaza are already offering online places to live within Gaza, its all for profit.
@@HernasRoom the USA has been energy independent for about a decade and only 7% of the USA's economy relies on trade outside North America. Given the right framing and a little government support, most Americans would happily ignore the whole thing.
I can't begin to explain how stupid of a statement this is. Ah yes, money is the driving factor behind this because Iran is known for being the richest country in the world.
Houthis (according to TLDR) -> first ballistic missile ship attack ever; capture ships via air assault; close trading sea lanes also Houthis according to TLDR -> " I don't know, maybe they are just stupid lol "
Red sea (Baby Al Mandan) is important for global shipping because: A. Main trade route between east Asia and Europe. They do a lot of trade, 30 percent of it goes thru here B. Most oil - Saudi, Iraq, Iran. Sent to the EU. They pass thru here. Ever since , Russian invade. They rely on this trade more. Qatar even uses it for liquified natural gas, - france, Italy Netherlands signed multiple long year decades to replace Russian foothold. If LNG die, so does EU After Israel invaded Gaza, Houthi then started war in those red sea site, and ruin oil (btw Houthi hate the government and Saudi), after control Sana'A. Their connection with Iran means they're gonna shut on Israel more cause they hate them (i.e firing missiles). Most of the ships being attacked are French, Norwegian and Chinese ships though. So that's crazy, but multiple shipping companies are not going thru there anymore, they're going thru Africa. This increases their profits, but this is bad for global economy - Egypt less people going thru Suez Canal. Which means they're losing money. Why are the Houthis doing this?? 1. They're doing this to improve domestic image - Houthis are in shambles, salaries are not given well. They do this they cast them selves as protector of not just Yemen but Arab people. Yemeni gov reluctant - people don't like 2. Want to increase escalation. Forcing western navies to get involved, Iran proxies despite being quiet (I.e. not knowing about October 7th attacks). Or maybe they're doing this because now it's the best time to strike What happens next? US is trying to escort ships now! Even if Houthis don't attack US navythat are escorting them, if the US cannot convince commercial tankers to continue, it may hurt their economy.
You need to consult regional experts or do some more in-depth reading and reach beyond the headlines. Per Ansarullah (the Houthis), they are doing this to force the world to stop the conflict in Gaza, and are exacting a cost on the entire world so long as it continues. They are not attacking non-Israeli targets by mistake, they are an experienced, capable, and battle-hardened militia that outfought the Saudis/Emiratis and their proxies. They have hit other targets so as to force shipping companies to divert or pay for expensive war insurance, and by keeping the blockade rhetorically limited they are trying to avoid a fuller escalation than an explicit closure of the straits would be. Iran has nothing directly to do with this, it is a mistake to think that Ansarullah are anything but acting on their own agency. They are solidifying their support domestically within Yemen, because nothing is more popular than standing up to both Israel and the US and winning, and they are shaming the other Arab governments for their inability to do anything to stop the slaughter in Gaza. Finally, they know that the US has no military solution, they have already defeated the Saudis and Emiratis, and they are an experienced force that can survive years of air strikes. Plus, to patrol the straits the US and western navies have put their own assets at easy reach, so if the US tries to escalate then expect missile swarms on western warships. And if they really want to escalate things, Ansarullah has the ability to knock out both Saudi and Emirati oil/gas production, which obviously would send the global economy into a depression.
dont blame the siege we dont do it for fun XD if we would stop the siege they will get 200x more guns and weapons and attack us 200x stronger if they were not terrorising us, there would be no siege
So basicly each time that something that the Houthis don't like will happen they will block the Red Sea and force the world to go by their will unless the world will take care of them
everything is going into a more severe crisis .I hope that in few years there will be first BOE (blue ocean event) in Arcrtic ice under 1 million km2 .It is likely because we saw how rapidly ice declined in 2012 due to sever storm in August .It may happen and than we can start shipping goods via central Arctic bypassing Russia...
Guys, no disrespect for Zac, but his voice is not good for the kind of content you are putting out. His voice is not attention-grabbing and more suited for audiobooks than news-based material. He has a very flat tone and makes following the content not interesting enough. He reads the material very robotic and without any emotion.
The drought at Panama canal is already affecting global shipping. The iran Shiite backed houthi are fighting internally with Sunni groups. Iran fking with Saudi Arabia oil shipping is not surprising besides Israel attacking gaza
Why arent Qatar, Egypt and Saudi Arabia participating in this coalition? Their economies depend heavily on unimpeded Red Sea trade, they definitely have the firepower and they are US allies.
They are Muslims, nothing is above that. Also they are not by any means allies of the US, they just do some stuff in order to get military tech and sell oil, there is huge difference between the two
SAUDI ARABIA has fought the Houthis for more than 5 years they're now engaged in peace talks with them and Iran since they realised the US won't help. Why on earth would they reignite that feud and make themselves sitting ducks for missiles. QATARS entire foreign policy rests on being the diplomatic party they'd lose ALL credibility by joining a military coalition against the Houthis actions which haven't killed anyone but yet not joining or forming one to ensure restraint by Israel who's killed tens of thousands. EGYPT however is a different story outside of applying pressure on Israel and undermining US global naval security guarantees... it is Egypt which is the target of the Houthis. Egypt relies on the suez canal for income any impediment to that is catastrophic for its already fragile economy. They're being put between a rock and a hard place for their muted position on the atrocities in Gaza. They cannot afford to be vocal about Israelis actions let alone be bellicose because of their vulnerability to US economic pressure so now the Houthis have ingeniously learnt from the US and found a way to financially hurt Egypt. Remember the Egyptian public is in full support of Palestine but the military dictator is fully aware what percentage of their military budget comes from the US. What the Houthis have done is ensure that Sisi cannot be idle he'll want business back to usual but staying in power is more important. Deciding to join a military coalition against the Houthis when he won't even cut diplomatic ties with Israel is non starter. That would be to much for the 100 million Egyptians watching what's happening in Gaza to accept.
1:03 Europe doesn't mean the European Union. The United Kingdom, Norway, Switzerland and Iceland, are examples of European countries which are not in the European Union, that doesn't make those countries any less European than the European countries in the European Union.
Yemen is already in distress. People are dying as a result of war and starvation. Why would they piss off the entire world when their nation is dependent on humanitarian aid? Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran are all very vocally against Israel, but they know the consequences if they act militarily. Saudi Arabia is loving much; in fact, they were waiting for this moment. Yemen is literally begging for more war
It's not so much the fast part, but the cheap part. While drones were always cheaper than their manned counterparts, the US was, for the longest time, the only country capable of fielding them on a significant scale. Now, with unmanned drones littering every store as well as years of time making what was cutting edge technology cheaper and easier to procure, anyone with enough of a budget to fund a decently sized militia has enough money to fund a drone or ten for reconnaissance or harassment.
@@exp8allHello Asian why it was stable before 19th century? Everybody knows the answer! Egypt,Eritrea,Djibouti and Saudi Arabia aren’t in war! Only Yemen and Sudan…
In light of the recent breakthroughs in nuclear fusion in California, and the energy it could potentially provide, it’ll be interesting to see how long western countries maintain a significant presence in the Middle East.
Houthis connection to Iran came after the Saudi and UAE invasion of Yemen in support of an ousted leader who had fled. While both Iran and Houthis are Shia they aren't the same denomination and the attacks seem one way to pressure the Saudis who still insist on propping up a leader who wasn't elected by Yemenis and who controls very little of the country. US has already attacked the Houthis and directly supported Saudi and UAE invasions.
And to be fair, all Arabs including the Palestinians stem from the Arabian peninsula anyways. They came as colonizers during the imperial and genocidal caliphates and have been occupying, settling and massacring the levant’s indigenous peoples (Jews, Copts, Assyrians, and more) for centuries. This solution would be the most fair given the Arab history of colonization and imperialism that must be taken into account

@@extrapolateThere are literally studies on genetic continuity in the Levant that show what you’ve written isn’t the case. The “J3ws” that come from Europe aren’t ancient Judeans and Israelites, and there are studies that show that too. I find it hilarious how the west colonizes and then asks the people getting colonized to prove that they are from the region. Even this whole population “replacement” that is supposed to have happened is insane, since during the Bar Kokhba revolt, the Romans expelled the Jews from Jerusalem and not the entirety of Palestine, and the relocated to the Galilee region in the north. And what’s worse is that in the age of gunpowder and canons Europeans were not able to totally replace and kill off the native Americans and the Aboriginals yet you’d have the world believe that the Romans were able to do that 2,000 years ago. And let’s assume that did happen, who lived in the land between 100 C.E. and ~660 C.E. when the Arabs took the land? Are you implying that the land at one of the most important crossroads between three continents was sitting there empty for 500 years? This type of zi0nist revisionist history is out of control.
The Houthis didn't attack the Saudis rather the Saudis attacked them after they took over the most of Yemen from Hadi regime who Saudi then supported while the Saudis had been wanting to define the Yemen-Saudi border after the discovery of oil in the area.
Why was the idea of Houthis intent to damage Israeli economy not examined in this video? Didn’t talk about the current and possible effect on Israel’s economy, and you almost completely dismissed the idea that this could be their intent despite it being their stated intent (they could be lying but examining both thoroughly is important).
America loving war is completely isolated: UN vote for a Hamas-Israel ceasefire on December 12: a total of 153 countries supported the ceasefire, 10 countries (US, Israel, Austria, others) opposed the ceasefire, and 23 countries (including the UK) abstained. The very funny thing is that Ukraine opposed the United States and supported the ceasefire. For another example, the result of the UN vote on November 2 demanding an end to the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States on Cuba was 187 in favor, 2 against (US and Israel), and 1 abstention (Ukraine).

The EU has neglected its military and navy for a long long time just look at how much Ukraine has depleted their wepons and ammo and they are still trying to catch up with production
The Chinese do need the red sea to export their cheap crap to the EU. Also, if oil prices rise the cost to China will also rise (and the Russian oil tankers sail through the red sea as well). The Chinese probably don't want to show their navy is incompetent and lacks power projection capability and they don't want to hurt their Iranian allies.

Hey Zac, great job. It's good to see more of your team's faces on here. 👏
It is always good to have a financial plan. I work with a professional planner and fixed-income strategist in NY. The fixed income portion of your portfolio won't simply serve as a buffer to the volatility of the equity portion of your portfolio, but will provide legitimate income.
Very true, people downplay planners role, until burnt by their mistakes. I remember just after my layoff early 2020 amidst covid outbreak, I needed to stay afloat, hence researched for license-fiduciary advisors. Thankfully, I came across someone of practical knowledge, and decades of experience.
Long term investment is the best now. I invested $7,500 in April last year with CHRIS RYAN STEWART and I top up my trade with $2,000 every week. Now, I'm having over $368,000 on my dashboard. Toping up your trade is really important.
An investment in knowledge pays but investing in both knowledge and passive income yields more gain. But People prefer to spend money on liabilities, rather than investing in assets which are very profitable.
I once watched him on BBC finance when he discussed his take on real estate investment and FX. He's top notch and a great strategist.
Thanks for sharing this here, found his site just after inputting his full name on the WEB, he is valid.
They are attacking the ships because EU is supporting and providing aid to Israel, and so disrupting the EU's economy would also indirectly harm Israel. I think it's pretty obvious
That's like Ukraine attacking Kazakhstan or India because they trade with Russia. It's just stupid.
The largest provider of aid to Palestine is the EU. They have been the largest aid provider since 1993. I doubt the Palestinians who depend on EU aid would be happy if that aid is disrupted.
Bro they dont attack Ships randomly, they attack Israeli ships only. All other ships are not touched to avoid hostility from other countries. Houthis only want Israeli ships or ships bound to Israel
@@beyondheartmindsoul3443 Strinda is an Israeli ship, and not Norwegian?
"There's already talk about the US taking direct action against Houthi bases in Yemen, which would both risk escalation with Iran, and scupper the ongoing Saudi-Houthi peace talks I'VE BEEN USING HENSON'S PRODUCTS FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW"
Would a third reason be that any disruption in the area will cause shipping insurance to increase or delays and cause disruption across Europe. And thus leading to financial issues across Europe (again), pushing them towards pushing for a cease to hostilities?
It's obviously a difficult time for escalation, especially due to multiple drains on attention, but what I don't get is why they risk upsetting China. The Chinese rely on exports for their economy and they've not really had a chance to flex their military muscles.
If china decides to show their naval strength and American ineffectiveness to worry the Asia Pacific, they might bite off considerably more than they can chew.
I don’t think it’s on purpose. The Houthis say they are targeting Israeli ships or ships going to Israel but I suspect they are just shooting at any ship that passes by. I doubt they are looking up ship manifest to check destination or where a ship is registered.
I have a feeling its what we call "RDS" in Australia - Relevance Deprivation Syndrome.
You are absolutely right. The Houthi's seem dead set on provocation. I can only imagine that this reflects a combination of their servile relationship with Tehran and their general desperation after so many years of a failed struggle at home.
China has been surprisingly quiet so far - but I suspect that this means they are speaking with the Western powers with naval bases in Djibouti (U.S. and France) through quiet channels and prefer to act quietly, letting the USA draw all the political ire.
China isn't going to do anything. They want the West to take all the heat, so China can be seen as the power sympathetic to Arabs.
China will do nothing.

one small correction, ships are usually owned, registered, and operated all over the world so Israeli ownership should not be a make or break for if it is a "valid" target.

Personally, I am assuming that this is actually just incompetence. The Houthis have been ridiculously incompetent in every facet of their ''government'', I see no reason to assume that they're not stupid enough to think that they're really attacking Israelis ships.

@@EdMcF1 Archer Fish can shoot down insects with jets of water with pinpoint precision. That doesn't suddenly make them smart.
@@EdMcF1they're incompetent in strategy, not in hitting ships.
I think it’s intentional Iranian escalation
Of the two attacked ships, one was later found out to have connections to an Israeli businessman and the other was scheduled to make a stop in an Israeli port.
So far it seems like the Huthis have been largely true to their word, and not targeted ships from neutral countries without reason, although it remains to be seen how this will play out in the long run.
Bogging down the Red Sea for goods flowing to the west makes sense from a Houthi perspective. It's an economic attack of sorts on Israel and its allies in Europe to make the war less sustainable, i.e., shipping insurance for Red Sea routes has already sky-rocketed.
The United States must reassure the Houthis, because the Straits of Babel Mandav are important to the world economy and trade. In Media and the Houthis will continue to attack ships, this will severely damage world trade.
Israel gets most of its imports from its ports on the Mediterranean. Egypt is the biggest loser in this conflict since the Suez Canal brings in revenue.
The only problem with that logic is that the largest supporter of Israel is the USA and the USA is mostly insulated from the attacks. The real question is why would the USA waste time interfering? The USA has spent the last 30 years fighting wars for European security and mostly being admonished for it.
@@ianbelanger7459 Israel a big donor in American politics, the US sells war and weapons, a week or so ago it gave them 15k tank shells, this is an ad for weapons of war and espionage to other countries by Israel, the settler groups along Gaza are already offering online places to live within Gaza, its all for profit.

Houthis (according to TLDR) -> first ballistic missile ship attack ever; capture ships via air assault; close trading sea lanes
also Houthis according to TLDR -> " I don't know, maybe they are just stupid lol "
Those two trains of thought aren't mutually exclusive.
@@raze3297they aren’t in the mind of a stupid person
Red sea (Baby Al Mandan) is important for global shipping because:
A. Main trade route between east Asia and Europe. They do a lot of trade, 30 percent of it goes thru here
B. Most oil - Saudi, Iraq, Iran. Sent to the EU. They pass thru here. Ever since , Russian invade. They rely on this trade more. Qatar even uses it for liquified natural gas, - france, Italy Netherlands signed multiple long year decades to replace Russian foothold. If LNG die, so does EU
After Israel invaded Gaza, Houthi then started war in those red sea site, and ruin oil (btw Houthi hate the government and Saudi), after control Sana'A. Their connection with Iran means they're gonna shut on Israel more cause they hate them (i.e firing missiles).
Most of the ships being attacked are French, Norwegian and Chinese ships though. So that's crazy, but multiple shipping companies are not going thru there anymore, they're going thru Africa.
This increases their profits, but this is bad for global economy - Egypt less people going thru Suez Canal. Which means they're losing money.
Why are the Houthis doing this??
1. They're doing this to improve domestic image - Houthis are in shambles, salaries are not given well. They do this they cast them selves as protector of not just Yemen but Arab people. Yemeni gov reluctant - people don't like
2. Want to increase escalation. Forcing western navies to get involved, Iran proxies despite being quiet (I.e. not knowing about October 7th attacks). Or maybe they're doing this because now it's the best time to strike
What happens next?
US is trying to escort ships now!
Even if Houthis don't attack US navythat are escorting them, if the US cannot convince commercial tankers to continue, it may hurt their economy.
You need to consult regional experts or do some more in-depth reading and reach beyond the headlines. Per Ansarullah (the Houthis), they are doing this to force the world to stop the conflict in Gaza, and are exacting a cost on the entire world so long as it continues.
They are not attacking non-Israeli targets by mistake, they are an experienced, capable, and battle-hardened militia that outfought the Saudis/Emiratis and their proxies. They have hit other targets so as to force shipping companies to divert or pay for expensive war insurance, and by keeping the blockade rhetorically limited they are trying to avoid a fuller escalation than an explicit closure of the straits would be.
Iran has nothing directly to do with this, it is a mistake to think that Ansarullah are anything but acting on their own agency. They are solidifying their support domestically within Yemen, because nothing is more popular than standing up to both Israel and the US and winning, and they are shaming the other Arab governments for their inability to do anything to stop the slaughter in Gaza.
Finally, they know that the US has no military solution, they have already defeated the Saudis and Emiratis, and they are an experienced force that can survive years of air strikes. Plus, to patrol the straits the US and western navies have put their own assets at easy reach, so if the US tries to escalate then expect missile swarms on western warships. And if they really want to escalate things, Ansarullah has the ability to knock out both Saudi and Emirati oil/gas production, which obviously would send the global economy into a depression.
Did you make the presentor shave his head with Headson's blades lmao? Like the add commitment.

Ships with Israeli owners are also being targeted. Not only ships destined from/to Israel.
This conflict has already spread into a regional conflict and will only worsen the longer Gaza is under siege.
dont blame the siege
we dont do it for fun XD
if we would stop the siege they will get 200x more guns and weapons and attack us 200x stronger
if they were not terrorising us, there would be no siege
So basicly each time that something that the Houthis don't like will happen they will block the Red Sea and force the world to go by their will unless the world will take care of them

He has a very flat tone and makes following the content not interesting enough. He reads the material very robotic and without any emotion.
The drought at Panama canal is already affecting global shipping. The iran Shiite backed houthi are fighting internally with Sunni groups. Iran fking with Saudi Arabia oil shipping is not surprising besides Israel attacking gaza
Why arent Qatar, Egypt and Saudi Arabia participating in this coalition? Their economies depend heavily on unimpeded Red Sea trade, they definitely have the firepower and they are US allies.
They are Muslims, nothing is above that. Also they are not by any means allies of the US, they just do some stuff in order to get military tech and sell oil, there is huge difference between the two
"Their economies depend heavily on unimpeded Red Sea trade" no it doesn't. But Europe's will especially after the war in Ukraine.
SAUDI ARABIA has fought the Houthis for more than 5 years they're now engaged in peace talks with them and Iran since they realised the US won't help. Why on earth would they reignite that feud and make themselves sitting ducks for missiles.
QATARS entire foreign policy rests on being the diplomatic party they'd lose ALL credibility by joining a military coalition against the Houthis actions which haven't killed anyone but yet not joining or forming one to ensure restraint by Israel who's killed tens of thousands.
EGYPT however is a different story outside of applying pressure on Israel and undermining US global naval security guarantees... it is Egypt which is the target of the Houthis. Egypt relies on the suez canal for income any impediment to that is catastrophic for its already fragile economy. They're being put between a rock and a hard place for their muted position on the atrocities in Gaza. They cannot afford to be vocal about Israelis actions let alone be bellicose because of their vulnerability to US economic pressure so now the Houthis have ingeniously learnt from the US and found a way to financially hurt Egypt. Remember the Egyptian public is in full support of Palestine but the military dictator is fully aware what percentage of their military budget comes from the US. What the Houthis have done is ensure that Sisi cannot be idle he'll want business back to usual but staying in power is more important. Deciding to join a military coalition against the Houthis when he won't even cut diplomatic ties with Israel is non starter. That would be to much for the 100 million Egyptians watching what's happening in Gaza to accept.

Houthis connection to Iran came after the Saudi and UAE invasion of Yemen in support of an ousted leader who had fled. While both Iran and Houthis are Shia they aren't the same denomination and the attacks seem one way to pressure the Saudis who still insist on propping up a leader who wasn't elected by Yemenis and who controls very little of the country. US has already attacked the Houthis and directly supported Saudi and UAE invasions.
Wrong
Well if they like and support Palestinians so much why not have them all move there. Would solve a whole lot real quick.
And to be fair, all Arabs including the Palestinians stem from the Arabian peninsula anyways. They came as colonizers during the imperial and genocidal caliphates and have been occupying, settling and massacring the levant’s indigenous peoples (Jews, Copts, Assyrians, and more) for centuries. This solution would be the most fair given the Arab history of colonization and imperialism that must be taken into account
"If they like and support Ukrainians why not have them all move there. Would solve a lot real quick." A statement I guarantee has never passed your lips or keyboard.

The “J3ws” that come from Europe aren’t ancient Judeans and Israelites, and there are studies that show that too.
I find it hilarious how the west colonizes and then asks the people getting colonized to prove that they are from the region.
Even this whole population “replacement” that is supposed to have happened is insane, since during the Bar Kokhba revolt, the Romans expelled the Jews from Jerusalem and not the entirety of Palestine, and the relocated to the Galilee region in the north. And what’s worse is that in the age of gunpowder and canons Europeans were not able to totally replace and kill off the native Americans and the Aboriginals yet you’d have the world believe that the Romans were able to do that 2,000 years ago.
And let’s assume that did happen, who lived in the land between 100 C.E. and ~660 C.E. when the Arabs took the land? Are you implying that the land at one of the most important crossroads between three continents was sitting there empty for 500 years?
