Since the Houthis were attacking international shipping of various nations it seems shaming the response hasn't already been achieved ages ago, and that it has been left to the Israelis.

The TV appeals for aid to Yemen really get my goat - just tell the dummies to STOP KILLING EACH OTHER!

And yes - nations whose shipping has been affected should be taking on the Houthis.

They deserve all they got.

I thought the US/UK had sorted some bases there a while back?

But yes, we all have a lot to thank Israel for whilst our politcal dummies all fiddlw about.

Nice to see the Far Right of AB applauding calling humans, vermin - now what is the German word for that - would untermenschen fit ?

If you dehumanise a group ( houthis = vermin) then your conscience wont bother you when you kill them

I understand your objection: but definition 2 ?

Does their conscience bother them when they kill people?

PP: "If you dehumanise a group ( houthis = vermin) then your conscience wont bother you when you kill them" - a bit like Islam does with the rest of us then.

Those people are already dehumanised.  No normal human being would do what they do.  I don't think we need worry about extending the slightest respect to them.

It souds like some people think it's alright to copy their behaviour.

//It souds like some people think it's alright to copy their behaviour.//

Or simply stop their behaviour?

"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

Seems many want to do nothing.

Another appropiate quote may be "I have in my hand a piece of paper"

That's handy if you need to go.

is the idea of counter-terrorism, to adopt the kill everything in your path? - righto ! - The british counter terorist police can only be described as amazingly ineffective - they havent gone into Oldam or Rotherham with machine guns blazing

and it is today ! ( cries of "wha' today den", "what?" wivva a light sprinkling of 'foo' etc )

Neville C - returns from Munich on this date ( Sept 30) 1938

All life is precious he says laughing.....except when it's not.

If one child's life is precious ( but er dead) then 15 000 ( gaza) can only be er - -- overkill

It's surely no coincidence that the Nazis portrayed the enemy within, the Jews, as vermin.

In a modern context if you dehumanise people  it's that bit easier to kill hundreds in an attempt to hit your target.

In one of the British Iraqi campaigns, the tommies called the enemy 'towelheads' - (Op Iraqi Freedom I think)

and Yoni ( Benjamin N brother, ) who lost his life ? in the Uganda rescue, used to say to his patrol in Sinai -  clearly before he died - Lets go rabbit hunting !
