    A literal Israeli newspaper article about the blockade that has done the most economic damage to Israel to date as a source for how ineptly the people who have done the most damage to Israel are not doing it right. Oh, and it 403’s, currently.

    Great sourcing there.

    There is no ongoing civil war, too. It was won completely by Ansarallah against the puppet regime that Saudi Arabia and the US tried to install through forced starvation. This bullshit “Ongoing civil war” is just another example of refusing to acknowledge the winning side when people don’t like the fact they won.
