  • Saying they are Putin’s hired guns makes it seem like Putin is the person who convinced them to join into a conflict that didn’t involve them when in reality we have been supplying arms to the people (Saudi Arabia) that have been exterminating them indiscriminately and without consequence.

    We chose to be their antagonist. They didn’t really have much of a choice between get wiped out or find somebody to help them fight back against getting wiped out.

    Putin is a bad guy, He’s going to use every resource he can in his invasion of Ukraine. If we were not supplying weapons to the people that are bombing Yemen then Yemen would have no reason find someone to help them resist us.

    Putin doesn’t have to sell opposition to America to countries that are being bombed by it. That’s a problem we create. The easiest way to deradicalize Yemen (and plenty of other anti-western political sentiment) would be to stop enabling Israel and Saudi Arabia to ignore human rights.
