Yemeni Armed Forces: Victory belongs to Yemen, Israel attacked civilian targets
Arutz Sheva ^ | 20/7/24

Posted on 07/20/2024 1:17:38 PM PDT by Eleutheria5

The Yemeni Armed Forces responded Saturday to Israel's attack on Houthi military targets near the Al Hudaydah Port, following hundreds of Houthi attacks on Eilat and the Red Sea.

"The Israeli enemy has launched a brutal aggression against Hodeidah Governorate, targeting with several raids the power station that supplies the coastal city of Hodeidah with electricity," the Yemeni Armed Forces said. "It also has targeted the Hodeidah port and fuel tanks, all of which are civilian targets."

"The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that they will respond to this blatant aggression and that, with the help of Allah Almighty, they will not hesitate to strike the vital targets of the Israeli enemy, while confirming what was stated in their previous statement regarding considering the occupied Jaffa area as an unsafe area."

The statement also promised that Yemen will support Hamas' battle against Israel: "The Yemeni Armed Forces, under the guidance of their faithful leadership, and with all the members of the free, great, steadfast and struggling Yemeni people solid stand with them, will not stop their operations in support of our brothers in Gaza, whatever the repercussions and whatever the results are, and they are preparing, with the help of Allah Almighty, for a long war with this enemy until the aggression stops and the siege is lifted and the crimes committed by the enemy against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip is over."

Yemen is crazier than Iran I’ve been told. It’s the Saudis that have been keeping the lid on them. Using weapons we sold them. Now the Libertarians are blaming us for the carnage there. They’re all crazy.

Because those ragheads never hit civilians like they just did in Tel Aviv with their drone attack on video

Yemenis are like Honey Badger. Better not to mess with them.

In the line asking whether there was any country I would not agree to work in, I wrote “Yemen”. And that was back in the ‘90s.

Riiight, everyone’s a civilian over there. Enjoy your burning oil depot, jihadis. Should last a while.

To be honest, if Israel blew up a firecracker on a remote uninhabited part of a desert, there would be news outlets claiming civilian deaths.

It’s the other way around. We did not “mess with” them, and since when were the Houthis defined as all of Yemen?

That is obvious; they hit an apartment building in Tel Aviv, but that's not a civilian target, right? Hitting their infrastructure was a smart move. They have very little infrastructure, which is also a warning to Iran. Iran has some economic issues, which would be worse if not for Biden. I always said the most significant damage to Iran would be to take out its ports, oil storage, wells, power grid, and communications systems. Kuwait recovered because of the many professional oil fire companies in the USA. Some were from other Muslim States, but the USA had the most significant footprint. Iran will have to rely on Russia for assistance. Their priorities may shift from nuclear armament to getting out of the Stone Age. I doubt the Iranian people would understand that nuclear capability comes first when there is no electricity and food has to be shipped overland with limited supplies.

Yeah, Israel never targets civilians in Gaza.

*Huge, dripping sarcasm here*

Oh that's right, I forgot that the over 100K Palestinians bombed or shot to death since 10/07 were super-secret Hamas fighters.

They breed terrorists when they’re not hiding and torturing civilian hostages.

Bomb them

They only exist to kill Jews. They should be removed to the multitude of raghead countries and let them deal with it

Israel hits military targets that are intentionally and cowardly placed in civilian areas by jihadis for maximum propagandistic effect. Collateral damage happens. But civilians themselves aren’t targeted. Only people (like you) completely blinded by Jew-hatred can’t recognize that.

<< 100K Palestinians bombed or shot to death since 10/07 >>

Lol, not even Hamas is claiming the death toll is anywhere near that number. They claim 39K. The accurate number is probably way less than half of that. And most are terrorists.

concealing military assets in the civilian population is a war crime; the civilian deaths are the responsibility of Hamas.

Christians are about one-fourth of the population of Palestinians in Gaza.

I have no problem with Israel defending itself against actual terrorists.

But carpet-bombing Gaza so Jared Kushner and his cronies can build luxury condos is a step too far.

"Israel attacked civilian targets"

There's only terrorists in Yemen.
