The targeting of another U.S.-owned commercial ship Wednesday shows the militant group remains intent on continuing its attacks in the face of multiple rounds of U.S. military airstrikes.
The Houthis launched anti-ship ballistic missiles at the U.S.-owned, flagged and operated commercial ship Maersk Detroit as it was transiting the Gulf of Aden, according to a statement from the U.S. Central Command. The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Gravely shot down two missiles and a third fell into the water. There were no indications of damage or injuries in the attack.
The U.S. military has been conducting airstrikes against the Houthis to degrade their capabilities since Jan.11, after several weeks of attacks on commercial ships by the militant group.
Nah I don’t think criticizing Israel is antisemitic. Everyone has raised excellent questions. Just seems people are not answering them logically and with real world consequences in mind. I’d call a lot of it virtue signaling. Look, everyone agrees genocide is wrong and cannot be tolerated. Everyone agreed targeting civilians for the sake of targeting civilians is a war crime.
Those three tank shells at the UN center today last night sure seem like a war crime. I have about 50/50 level of confidence that if it is a warm crime, those responsible will be prosecuted by the Israeli militaries traditions of justice.
I have zero confidence whatsoever that war crimes committed by Hamas or anyone in Palestine will be investigated or at all treated by authorities as a criminal matter, but would rather be rewarded with money and praise, and excused not under laws of religious zealotry.

Oh I see. I said I don’t think authorities in Palestine will investigate. NGOs will. They are not the authorities.
