I can 'get' a limited argument for that in a 'total war' sense of economic warfare, though I'd still regard it as abhorrent.

Fact is it's not even that much, though. It's just random attacks on shipping because their paymasters benefit from the chaos and the Houthis benefit from the raised profile.
