The people of Yemen are doing what they are able with the means they have. If a country with a proper navy was fulfilling their obligation to stop genocide, Yemen wouldnt have to risk their lives and meager wealth stopping ships from facilitating genocide.
Do you also blame the taliban for the famine in Afghanistan? Saddam for the famine in the 90s? Fidel for the Special Period? Turns out when you bomb a place to shit so their farmers arent able to grow and transport food, you get famine.
The Houthis started the civil war and continued for a decade with Iranian support. They don’t give a shit about the Yemeni population.
Attacking shipping in the name of fighting Israel demonstrates again how these Islamist fanatics don’t care about their own people. You are falling for a cheap PR campaign of one of the worst regimes in the Middle East.
The Houthis dont have to be perfect angels for the action of enforcing a blockade that economically huts Israel to be justified.
If the company didnt want to be targeted, it shouldn’t have shipped goods to Israel and then violated the blockade again. Sucks that the sailors worked for a company willing to sacrifice their lives to profit off a fascist state. I’m sure there were good innocent civilians with families who were killed working for ships that transported materials to nazi Germany too. Doesnt mean they should have been allowed to pass.
On the contrary, the convention on genocide not only allows the blockade, but requires every signatory try to stop it.
You should read up on what a naval blockade is and how it‘s supposed to be conducted.

The Houthis are still much better at killing Arabs, than Israel is.
90,000 dead children from famine.

Annoying Israel and killing innocent sailors of course takes precedence over taking care of their own people.
