Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Summary

U.S. airstrikes on Houthi-held areas of Yemen killed at least 31 and injured 101, according to the Houthi health ministry.

The strikes followed renewed Houthi attacks on shipping, which they say are in response to Israel’s blockade of Gaza.

A Houthi spokesperson vowed retaliation, stating, “Our response will not be delayed.” Trump warned Iran to stop supporting the Houthis, while Iran distanced itself from the group.

The conflict has disrupted Red Sea shipping, prompting the U.S. to redesignate the Houthis as a terrorist organization earlier this month.

Yes, the people standing up to genocide.

Say some words about headscarves and trans people while America and Israel are actively massacring the very people you are pretending to defend.. You must care so much about them.

It’s a lot less simple than you’re trying to make it out to be. I don’t support what Israel and the US are doing either, for your information.

Just don’t see how Iran or any of their proxies should be idolized considering their longstanding abuse of human rights among even just their own.

They do much worse than just put women in headscarves, if you’re not aware.

America and Israel are conducting a genocide. Therefore the people risking their lives to stand up to America and Israel are better than America.
