What the fuck does any of that have to do with what I said? You seemed to be under the impression that the Houthis or Yemen in general weren't already despised and under attack by both their closest neighbor and the most powerful military in the world. I corrected your misunderstanding. Don't put (moronic) words in my mouth because you failed to do the absolute minimum research before commenting on something (again).

Have you not paid attention to their situation in the last decade at all? They've been bombed, starved to a famine and everything else that could be thought up with the help of Saudi Arabia and the US. If you think people have been "playing nice" with them so far you're incredibly far off.

Suddenly my skin is clear, my crops are watered, the sun is shining, the grass is green, and my grades are up :D

This realization somehow amazes and depresses me at the same time

You can't point out hypocrisy without "whataboutism". You could say it was an ad hominem, but not whataboutism, when the point is to show someone is a hypocrite.

Oh you might be right about that. I didn't read too carefully after I saw that babies were snatched. If they weren't taken from any parents/caregivers it would matter a lot more how they were treated afterwards, but I still think the practice, even when it leads to better outcomes, is morally repugnant because it opens a very dangerous door to ever sign off on what essentially functions as human trafficking. Although it does make me slightly more relieved that at least they weren't taken from their parents. Glad you caught that!

No matter how well or unwell intentioned, stealing babies from their parents to give to someone else has always been one of the most revolting crimes out there for me. Absolutely vile regardless of how the baby snatchers intend to treat the kid.
