China Arming Houthi Rebels in Yemen in Exchange For Unimpeded Red Sea Passage

1. This article discusses U.S. intelligence and open-source information regarding China allegedly arming the Houthis to avoid attacks on their shipping. This should come as no surprise, given the China-Russia-Iran axis no doubt extends to Iranian proxies, and also given this helps China grow as a maritime power. The real question is what can be done about it by the United States, and how it can punish this type of arming of a truly awful organization and diminish Houthi ability to hold international shipping by the West and its allies hostage.

2. This is crazy. Can you imagine if other countries were to arm militant groups in foreign nations in order to achieve their own geopolitical goals?

   We must demand that this stops, as this is not good for our own geopolitcal goals, which are the only goals any nation on the planet should be guided towards. A strongly worded letter is surely in order here. That’ll show ’em.

3. Seems like every company that makes money from China is implicit…

4. US arms and funds rebel groups but when we them they are freedom fighters that thrive for democracy

5. This is something west has done collectively for their own benefit through out history. Why make Pikachu face when China does the same?

6. Another high price of cheap goods that could be sourced else where coming due for payment.
