“Operations in the Red and Arabian Seas, Bab al-Mandab Strait, and the Gulf of Aden are continuing, escalating, and effective,” Abdul Malik al-Houthi added in a televised speech. He gave no details of the submarine weapons.

Ships owned by individuals or entities in Israel, the U.S. and U.K. or sailing under their flags are banned from the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden and Arabian Sea, Thursday’s notices said.

“The Humanitarian Operations Center was established in Sanaa to coordinate the safe and peaceful passage of ships and vessels that have no connection to Israel,” a senior Houthi official told Reuters on Thursday.

No ships have been sunk nor crew killed during the Houthi campaign. However there are concerns about the fate of the UK-registered Rubymar cargo vessel, which was struck on Feb. 18 and its crew evacuated.

    No I’m explaining the cause of anti-semitism. Which is israel. Israel keeps using the good Jewish name as a shield for their Genocide.

    Only since israel started using Judaism as a shield for their Nazi behavior did this false correlation start.

    Arabs have no problem with Jews. It was in Europe that Pogroms were a regular occurance.

      Arabs have no problem with Jews. It was in Europe that Pogroms were a regular occurance.

      Baghdad farhud 1941

      Allahdad 1839 pogrom

      Mawza Exile 1679-1680

      Damascus Affair 1840

      Granada Massacre 1066

      1834 looting of Safed

      Fez massacre 1033

      Yemen
      “In the late 1160s, the Yemenite ruler 'Abd-al-Nabī ibn Mahdi gave Jews a choice of conversion to Islam or martyrdom.”

      (893) “Under the Zaydi rule, the Jews were considered to be impure and therefore forbidden to touch a Muslim or a Muslim’s food. They were obligated to humble themselves before a Muslim, to walk to the left side, and greet him first. They could not build houses higher than a Muslim’s or ride a camel or horse, and when riding on a mule or a donkey, they had to sit sideways. Upon entering the Muslim quarter a Jew had to take off his foot-gear and walk barefoot. If attacked with stones or fists by youth, a Jew was not allowed to fight them. In such situations, he had the option of fleeing or seeking intervention by a merciful Muslim passerby.”

      Egypt
      “In 1300 Sultan Al-Nasir Qalawan ordered all Jews under his rule to wear yellow headgear to isolate the Egyptian Jewish community.  This law would be enforced for centuries and later amended in 1354 to force all Jews to wear a sign in addition to yellow headwear. On multiple occasions the ulema persuaded the government to close or convert synagogues. Even major places of pilgrimage for Egyptian Jews such as the Dammah Synagogue were forced to close in 1301. Jews subsequently were excluded from bath houses and were prohibited to work in the national treasury. This repression of the Jewish community would continue for centuries.”

      and more
      “In 1656, all Jews were expelled from Isfahan and forced to convert to Islam because of a common belief that their Jewishness was impure.”
      “in 1661 they were allowed to revert to Judaism, although they were still required to wear a distinctive patch on their clothing.”

      muslims made jews wear patches before the nazis did.

        Farhud (also Farhood; Arabic: الفرهود) was the pogrom or the “violent dispossession” that was carried out against the Jewish population of Baghdad, Iraq, on 1–2 June 1941, immediately following the British victory in the Anglo-Iraqi War.

        THE BRITS took over Baghdad and then did Pogroms. Let’s blame the Arabs!

        Don’t look up what European colonialism had to do with Jewish persecution either that’s going to be very inconvenient.

        I also clicked on the Damascus Affair 1840 link. Since you didn’t, I’ll help you out.

        Spoiler alert: It’s Europe again:

        Since the beginning of the sixteenth century, Syria had been part of the Ottoman Empire (1299–1922). However, in 1831, eight years before the Tanzimat reforms, Ottoman Syria had come under the control of the Egyptian Muhammad Ali, the viceroy of Ottoman Egypt who had turned against the sultan. Muhammad Ali was said to have been influenced by European powers, particularly by France, which often attempted to safeguard and ameliorate the position of members of Catholic orders in the region.

            In classic Hasbara fashion this person took a list of Wikipedia links that sounded convenient and did not read them

            I read the top and the middle article at random which were fully BS and actually disproved the claims. The quotes to disprove them were provided

            A person can’t link 50 examples and pretend I have to debunk every single one. Two is plenty.

            Next time someone provides a list a good idea for them is to read it themselves to make sure they can actually use it as argument.

          “According to Iraqi government and British historical sources violence started when a delegation of Jewish Iraqis arrived at the Palace of Flowers (Qasr al Zuhur) to meet with the Regent Abdullah, and were attacked en route by an Iraqi Arab mob as they crossed Al Khurr Bridge. Iraqi Arab civil disorder and violence then swiftly spread to the Al Rusafa and Abu Sifyan districts, and got worse the next day when elements of the Iraqi police began joining in with the attacks upon the Jewish population, involving shops belonging to it being set on fire and a synagogue being destroyed. Many Jewish girls were gang-raped and children maimed and killed in front of their families.”

          “Shalom Darwish, the secretary of the Jewish community in Baghdad, testified that several days before the Farhud, the homes of Jews were marked with a red palm print (“Hamsa”), by al-Futuwa youth. Al-Sabawi also instructed Jews in Baghdad to pack suitcases and to wait to be taken to “detention camps” “for their own safety”.”

          “Two days before the Farhud, Yunis al-Sabawi, a government minister who proclaimed himself the governor of Baghdad, summoned Rabbi Sasson Khaduri, the community leader, and recommended to him that Jews stay in their homes for the next three days as a protective measure. He had planned for a larger massacre, preparing to broadcast a call for the Baghdad public to massacre Jews. However, the broadcast was never made since al-Sabawi was forced to flee the country.”

          planned and done by muslim iraqis.
          not to mention all of the other massacres and anti-semitism cases i’ve linked.
          but it’s pretty clear by this point you’ll justify any case of anti-semitism by arabs / muslims.

            Yes now don’t ask yourself the question of why the word BRITISH is in that first sentence.

            Once the Brits install a government it is not commanded by Arabs.

              someone here didn’t read.
              the ones who initiated the pogrom weren’t part of the british government. they were part of the coup government who took power from the british

              nonetheless you’re ignoring everything else i linked, like the persecution of yemenite jews.

              or the persecution and discrimination against isfahan jews in iran and how they were forced to wear badges under islamic rule. centuries before the nazis.

                You’re right I did miss some info. It was Nazis and Britis. But the Pogrom happened under the Brits.

                it’s at the ramp up of WW2 and everyone wanted to control the oil. So Baghdad got a nice amount of Nazi propaganda. And their government overthrown of course.

                The British also delayed their entry into Baghdad for 48 hours, which some testimonies suggest was due to having ulterior motives in allowing a clash to happen between Muslims and Jews in the city.[29]

                Now the 1300 one could be true I haven’t read it yet. But there I am very much noticing a theme of Europeans showing up

                Many of these “Arab” ones were very much pushed on the Arab Jews by Europe.

                  rashid ali was an iraqi muslim, so was yunis al-sabawi, so were al-futuwa youth that marked jewish houses before the farhud and so were the iraqi mob and police that massacred and raped jews.
                  arabs aren’t infantile human beings with no agency or responsibility.

                  you wrote that these things only happened in europe. iraq isn’t europe.

                  either way i gave other examples without any kind of european presence. and there are plenty more.

      “A curse upon the Jews” must mean something different where you’re from.

      Arabs have no problem with Jews. It was in Europe that Pogroms were a regular occurance.

      https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisemitism_in_the_Arab_world

      Dhimmi were subjected to a number of restrictions, the application and severity of which varied with time and place. Restrictions included residency in segregated quarters, obligation to wear distinctive clothing such as the Yellow badge,[17][Note 1] public subservience to Muslims, prohibitions against proselytizing and against marrying Muslim women, and limited access to the legal system (the testimony of a Jew did not count if contradicted by that of a muslim.

        While there were antisemitic incidents before the 20th century, during this time antisemitism in the Arab world increased greatly.

        Jeez wonder why anti-semitism was virtually non-existent before the 20th century. And then suddenly all Arabs became anti-semitic.

        Did someone start some kind of hostile ideology that wanted to take over the Arab world using Judaism as a shield?

        Even random Moroccans in a cafe can tell you what actually happened
