We’ve gone from being complicit in a genocide in Yemen by giving arms and military support to Saudi Arabia, to now just deciding to do the genocide ourselves.
I consider teh US a full participant. It’s the US’s proxy war, it’s US arms, it’s US intel. We weren’t just giving them stuff, we were re-fueling their planes with US aerial refueling tankers. They literally could not have done it without us.
We also provided targeting. There were a lot of double-tap strikes in that war! And we provided logistics like in-air refueling. Most importantly, the US was part of the genocidal starvation blockade. And when the Saudis realized they can no longer continue the war in late 2022, Biden was the one pressuring them to not end it. But China’s diplomacy won out.

Disgusting

Absolutely. It’s just now we’re directly doing it instead of having a proxy do it

And its in order to help provide cover for another genocide in the region. Grim.
