During the brief ceasefire that started in January of this year, Yemen halted all attacks on Israel and paused its blockade on Israeli ships and those heading to Israel. Yemen has proven that if the genocide and blockade stops they will stop.

I wish them luck
It feels like the poorest country in West Asia is the only one taking this genocide seriously
Never in a million years did I think I would be wishing that Yemen is successful in its fight against the Israeli Genocidal Government.
Why is Israel in quotes? Is it surprising that Yemen referred to it as Israel and not by some other name?
Because Iran doesn’t recognize the “Zionist regime” in “occupied Palestine” as a legitimate state.

I propose doing big air quotes any time you're going to say "Israel". Maybe do a funny voice.
I have taken to "West palestinian occupation regime" or just "Pissrael"
I'm doing this every time I say israel IRL now.
It's odd that it's in quotes in only 2 places in the article, and otherwise not in quotes.
Idk, it bugs me on the grounds that e.g. Palestine is not referred to with quotes by other countries. But if the quotes are helping, I guess it's worth the inconsistency.
Settler colonies are not real countries.
We refer to non-real things without quotes all the time, e.g. magic, not '"magic".'
Wait did he just say he is going to bomb airbase INSIDE Israel?
If so, woww
An airport not an airbase.
