    so US can fund genocide, but no one can protest it, got it.

    are trade routes more important than actual human lives?

      Why not ask the human lives on the trade vessels?

      If the US Navy wasn’t swatting missiles and drones, hundreds of sailors would be at the bottom of the sea by now.

      Don’t forget environmental damage from spilled fuel and actual oil tankers that would be damaged. You know, like the Russian tanker they accidentally fired on today even though it had even less to do with them than anyone else in the sea.

      Launching missiles at civilian ships is not a “protest”.

          What if some of those merchant sailors (who are often so poor they can’t even afford to leave port) are Palestinians? Is it okay to kill those Palestinians?
