    Since we’re on the topic of Houthis, could anyone knowledgeable please help me with something. I’ve heard that their motto contains “death to Jews” right after “death to Israel”. But I can’t Arabic nor do I trust the Internet enough to take it at face value. Is it true?

      I don’t know but I’m not sure anyone is claiming these people are perfect and it doesn’t matter if they do. No one is claiming they’re perfect Marxists and you need to read their theory or go and pledge yourself to their cause. So it doesn’t matter if they’re not perfect. Are they conducting a genocide? No. Are they going to conduct one soon? All signs point to no.

      Their actions matter. That they are trying to stop a genocide. It’s like rooting for the defeat of Russia and the scourging of its people, their absolute destruction and oppression because they have anti-gay laws. Or rooting for the destruction of Hamas because they don’t open gay nightclubs and the zionists do.

      Do not be drawn into pointless debates with liberals who have no historical materialist understanding of history. Zionists are fascists and no amount of Jew hate can change that or justify their colonization and ethnic cleansing of Palestine. The Europeans did the Holocaust, Germans and Poles should have had their land taken for a Jewish state as justice is not the victimizer walking off scott-free while the victim is handed compensation from an uninvolved third party who you victimize to take it from.

        Frankly, their praxis is better than that of the rest of the world, who cares what their ideology is when their actions are so obviously effective and aimed at helping the Palestinians. Yemen is taking a beating for these actions too. You don’t get much more principled in your actions than this.
