    What the Houthi’s said is vey simple.They said if you lift the blockade on Gaza and allow food and medicine to flow into Gaza there will be no targeted ships, is that a lot to ask for? Food and medicine for the innocent children and people, I mean how cruel can you be and the lack of respect for human life is showing

    That's why we spend 184 billion dollars on the military, so they can sit on the sidelines. Wouldn't want to bust all that stuff, after all it's just for show.

    This won't make China or the Asian market happy. Prices will be going up and shipments will be slower.

    The West (except the UK) does not have the balls to stop the Yemeni terrorist army assisted by Iran. The US and the French talk a lot but do nothing. Good that the Brits do react, but this won't suffice to put an end to the muslim terrorists war on the West, now limited to that region but potentiallybsoon spreading to Europe.

    Hahaha all part of the plan. Now every country is going to rip off their citizens with putting fuel up. They will do anything now to get people to go electric

    This is objectively because of the Zionist occupation of Palestine.

    They will not get Saudi and UAE on board this time. The UAE brought more than 50 Arab and Muslim nations together and brought a vote triggered by article 99 to the security council and US proudly and in total isolation vetoed a (humanitarian ceasefire), France and UK will sail with them but forget launching from the middle east basis. The so called "war" comes at a time of peace between Saudi and Iran, Yemen & Turkey has designated the IOF as a terrorist entity.

    Obama said we would necessarily have to raise the costs of oil to get the public to choose sustainability. Democrats are probably supporting the anti-Isreal Houthis now as well.

    Biden better not go at this alone. All the countries need to join or just ignore it. Iran is really pissing me off. This is them. Iran tankers should be stopped!

    The US isn't a fan of oil supply routes being screwed with. The Iranians found that out the hard way in 1988. The White House is trying to avoid a widening conflict in the region, so we'll see if the US Navy gets "proportional" on the Houthis.

    The problem is that NATO and the EU want the Americans to be the leader but mostly, these days, want our money. It's once again time that America concentrate on our own problems such as stupid immigration policies by championing open borders.

    houthis hamas hezbollah. They are just making up funny names now and calling them a terrorist gruoup. The reality though is much different. These are just resistance groups. If you are talking muslims any armed groups are terrorists. If it is an armed group of jews they are called brave soldiers. Our pathetic world.

    December 25, 2023 at 2:07 pm

    So how the oil prices don’t go up ?

  42. @user-nc1tg5no7l

    December 25, 2023 at 2:07 pm

    The only reason this story exists is to raise gas prices. This is going to be a war. The united states completely changes it's stance when Jews, or oil are involved. America is a disgrace.

    Pretty sure that the Houthi’s announced that any ship not porting in Israel will be safe. Why should we care again?
