‘Yemen, Yemen, make us proud’: Anti-Israel protesters pledge support to Houthi militants nm,./’
Anti-Israel demonstrators marched in downtown Toronto on Saturday pledging their support for the Yemen-based militant Houthi group that has targeted international shipping lines
Anti-Israel demonstrators marched on Saturday and pledged their support to the Houthi rebels, a group that has targeted international shipping lines in recent months.
“Yemen, Yemen, make us proud! Turn another ship around!” protesters chanted in front of City Hall in downtown Toronto, referring to a Yemen-based outfit backed by Iran.
The political slogan of the Houthis is: “God is great, Death to America, death to Israel, damnation to the Jews, victory to Islam.” The refrain has gained steam since Hamas invaded Israel on October 7, after which the Houthis pledged support for the Palestinian terror group.
The Houthis have repeatedly fired rockets at Israel and container ships passing through the Red Sea bound for the Suez Canal, where an estimated 12 per cent of global trade passes through. Many shipping companies have been forced to reroute trade around the southern tip of Africa to avoid the instability, adding over a week and 3,000 nautical miles to their journeys.
Jack’s Note: When Biden and Trudeau (a pair of gutless assholes by any measure) are gone this bullshit will stop. End of message.
