Attacking Israel in the Red Sea and helping Hamas, the Yemeni Houthis seem to have become addicted: on the 15th, two container ships sailing in the Red Sea Bab el-Mandeb Strait were attacked by missiles one after another within a few hours, and the Yemeni Houthis subsequently declared: We did it.
The first of the two merchant ships to be attacked was the Jasra, which was owned by a German company, and the second, the Paladin, which was owned by the Mediterranean Shipping Company, which was headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland.
The Associated Press, citing the Pentagon, reported that the missile attack caused damage to the first ship and caused a fire, but no one was injured, but it is unclear whether the second attack caused casualties.
Since the outbreak of the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, Yemen's Houthi rebels have repeatedly hijacked and attacked passing merchant ships in the Red Sea. One still remembers a passage that circulated on social media a month ago: Houthis landed on the sailing "Galactic Leader", which allegedly belonged to Israel, and took control of the entire crew by force.
Things are changing. Previously, the Houthis announced that they were targeting Israeli-flagged or Israeli-affiliated vessels. But now, the group has threatened to attack any ship heading to or leaving Israel.
Israel has three main ports, Haifa and Ashdod on the Mediterranean coast, and Eilat in the Gulf of Kaba on the Red Sea. The Houthi attacks in Yemen will not cut off Israel's freight, but the question is, on what basis to attack merchant ships?What started as an attack on Israel has now escalated and turned into a ship for any country that travels to and from Israel will be hit by the group's religious iron fist.
China likes to attack the United States as the "world's policeman", and there is no doubt that the Houthis are now determined to be the "Red Sea police".
Al Jazeera, which is funded by the Qatari royal family and has spared no effort to cheer for Gaza since the outbreak of the Kazakh-Israeli conflict, is happy in its eyes and heart, but it pretends to be worried and says: This is troublesome, the situation is going to be bad, the Houthis and Israel are on the bar, and the Red Sea conflict may expand.
Hijacking and attacking merchant ships, the actions of the Houthis in Yemen with a primitive and barbaric nature, are reminiscent of two families: there is Iran in the near future, because this is the financial owner of the organization, and it is impossible to do bad things without money;Far away is the long-dead Arafat, the Arab warrior and leader who once moved China to tears when he mentioned it, and the Palestine Liberation Organization he engaged in carried out terrorist activities in the 70s of the last century, the most good of which was the hijacking.
On 21 February 1970, SWISS Flight 330 flew from Zurich to Hong Kong via Tel Aviv. Two PLO members planted a bomb on the plane, which crashed shortly after takeoff, killing all 47 passengers and crew.
On 22-23 February 1972, PLO members hijacked Lufthansa Flight 649. Eventually, all the hostages were released after West Germany agreed to pay a ransom of $5 million to the group. The compromise of West Germany led to another escalation of the terrorist actions of various factions in the PLO, and the $5 million paid was used for the subsequent terrorist operation of the "Rhodes Airport".
On May 30 of the same year, PLO militants and members of the Japanese Red Army Brigade coordinated with each other to launch a terrorist attack at Israel's Lourdes International Airport, now Ben-Gurion International Airport, killing 26 people and injuring 78 others.
The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) has carried out many such actions, including the well-known Operation Entebbe. On 27 June 1976, PLO militants hijacked an Air France flight with 248 passengers on board to Entebbe International Airport in Uganda. Israeli special forces traveled thousands of kilometers with meticulous preparation to rescue hundreds of Jewish hostages who were eventually taken captive. However, in the midst of a successful rescue, the commander of the operation, Lieutenant Colonel Yonatan, the eldest brother of the current Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, was tragically shot and killed.
The PLO hijacking, the Yemeni Houthi hijacking of ships in the Red Sea, after 50 years, like?It's all for a national liberation cause called Palestine, wearing an Arab hat that seems to be extremely righteous, chopping melons and vegetables, whether it is related or not, as long as you get on a plane passing through Israel, as long as your ship sails out of an Israeli port or is going to an Israeli port, I will do it, and it is **.
In fact, when we went crazy, we didn't have to get involved with Israel, and some of the international flights had nothing to do with Israel, but they all fell victim to the "national liberation cause." Now, too, although Yemen's Houthis say they are targeting Israel, the Pentagon** says that several of the previously batted merchant ships do not appear to have anything to do with Israel.
Late on Friday, Yemen's Houthi military spokesman Sarea claimed responsibility for the attack at a news conference in the capital, Sana'a. He said that the personnel on both ships refused to respond to calls from Yemeni maritime forces and were subsequently attacked by rockets.
Yemen's Houthi rebels have told all ships heading to all ports in the world except Israeli ports that they will not be harmed, but that "they must keep identification devices open," the spokesman said. ”
The Houthis in Yemen are not only in the West, but also in the Middle East, such as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain. The group's slogan reads: "Allah is great, down with America, down with Israel, curse the Jews, Islam triumphs."
There is a folk saying that "the poor are poor". This could not be more appropriate for Yemen's Houthi rebels.
In the Middle East, Yemen is a veritable poor country and the only least developed country in the world in West Asia. Whether a country is rich or not cannot only look at the capital, but to say that it is not poor, you can know it by looking at the capital. Whether it's Aden, where Yemen is currently located, or Sana'a, which is controlled by the Houthis, it feels like a crowded, run-down county.
To what extent is it poor?Exchange marriages are prevalent in the country. In order to save the dowry, when the elder brother marries the bride, he marries the younger sister of the family to the bride's elder brother. This back and forth, the bride price money is saved.
The poorer the poorer, the poorer the poorer, the poorer the ideology, the more special demands for progress, this is the law of the world, looking for books everywhere to read, either lighting an oil lamp and carrying quotations, or kneeling on the ground to recite the scriptures all day long. The factories could not be built, and the land was deserted, so they became angry with others, thinking that the developed rich people were in their way, so they began to do all kinds of revolutions, and the wars were continuous, and bad tricks were used to the extreme. I didn't have any money, so I joined a group of people, went to fate, got money and continued to toss. For many years, it has been a routine, and in the end, it is the people who are unlucky, and they keep harming others.
Isn't that the Houthi rebels in Yemen like this?With those few township enterprises in Yemen, where can they go to save missiles?The *** used to hijack the freighter came from the **?For a poor country like Yemen, fighting a war is an absolute luxury. But the more this happens, the easier it is to participate in the war, because there is no culture, no technology, and there is no other opportunity to show talent except to take advantage of the chaos to kill people and goods. Therefore, such a place and such a person are particularly motivated to support the so-called cause of others in a "righteous" manner.
Similar to the poor men in the countryside shouting and scolding in the streets shirtless, the Houthis in Yemen have also mastered a pattern, and the United States, Israel, and other countries, everyone is very busy, and Yemen, a poor country in the corner of the Red Sea, has no time to take care of it. However, after all, the attack on a merchant ship is also a matter, and even if you can't do it for a while, you can't help but take a stand. However, at present, it is limited to a statement, and the United States has only condemned the abductions and attacks by *** adviser Sullivan, and said that Iran has a responsibility to stop such actions by the Houthis.
Merchant ships from many countries sail the Red Sea, and China is even more so. However, we are not afraid, we have double insurance: the main force is the Chinese sea ** boat formation escort in the Gulf of Aden. It's really too busy, and actor Wu Jing helps, as long as he does it once, it's enough for Sana's gang to tremble for half a year.
Of course, judging from the intensification of some troublemakers in the Middle East over the years, whether it is Hamas or Yemen, the most important thing is to crack down on or even eliminate these maritime hijackers. If you are a serious businessman in the maritime shipping industry, are you afraid of the Houthis or the IDF?The former is undoubtedly the former. It's simple, whoever you are afraid of, you should hit whom. Those who have worked night shifts know who they are most afraid of when they walk at night, and which people are the targets of the crackdown to the letter, no matter what career they are shaving.
How many years later, when the world is peaceful, maybe many people will still be grateful to Israel, saying, fortunately, you were clear-headed, firm, and resolutely eliminated *** Otherwise, how can we serious people survive to this day?
