Uh… What do you think the Houthis are? They’re an independent political entity with their own goals, ideas and people. Even if they were doing this at Iran’s bidding they wouldn’t be “contracted” and their goals wouldn’t be private ends.
Please tell me you’re not trying to support the “they’re being contracted” argument, because if so, like, c’mon. That aside, even if we assume they’re an Iranian vassal state, okay and?
For private ends. That part is important.
They are being contracted by Iran to do this.

So your argument is that they’re independent terrorists rather than pirates?
Asks the guy whos argument is that the defacto rulers of Yemen are crew or passengers of a private ship.
Oh that too lmao.
Houthis are not seriously independent as compared to iran.

I’m simply pointing out that your statement of them being independent is outright wrong.
You know that’s not what I meant. The Houthis run Yemen as its own country, not as province of Iran, ergo they’re independent.
