Yemen used to be one of the most protected and richest nations in the world, and the port of Aden was a major destination for traders from all nations. Guess it’s revenge time.
It would be pretty funny if western shipping companies gain a competitive disadvantage because everyone else takes the hint and stops shipping to Israel.

I’m so glad the lathe agreed it’s funny. Get fucked western shipping.
Dang that would crank it up a notch
It would be a massive W for both Yemen and China for there to be no Navy boats.
China knows only one ethic: the ethic of money and capitalism.
Must suck for Egypt. Suez earns them a lot of dollars.
Egypt had a chance to do the right thing voluntarily. Now the decision has been made for them by their betters.
I mean yea Egypt is very much a US puppet but even if they weren’t they are still strangled by western imperialism and shares borders with a nuclear state which is more than willing to attack.
Egypt already has terrible inflation and their currency isn’t doing so well. Good chance this will make it much worse.

God no, please don’t help South Africa’s economy
Why are there so many ships sailing due east/west through the Atlantic? Are they headed to the Pacific?
Buenos Aires and other SA coastal cities maybe?
I guess so, I thought they tended to avoid those seas and traveled north-west then southwest to get there. But I guess a direct route is easier.
Isn’t that just traveling to Latin America?
I would’ve thought they would be going a bit more north-northwest for that, along the African coast. I thought that the seas west of South Africa are some of the roughest in the world, so I thought the route was a kind of upside-down U shape rather than a straight line.
