It's a concerted effort by western media to delegitimize them through language. I've often heard “Houthi rebels” which makes the intention very clear. Ansar Allah is the proper name like you said, and not only were they the de facto government of Yemen before, but also the recent US/UK bombing campaign is making more and more Yemenis unite behind Ansar Allah.

Those savages living in the modern recreation of the Warsaw Ghetto we created for them attacked us! It was completely UnPrOvOkEd!

Nope. Clair de Lune is not only the name of the Debussy piece. From Wikipedia:

Piano Sonata No. 14 (Beethoven), Op. 27, No. 2 (1801), the "Moonlight" piano sonata by Beethoven, known in French as Sonate au Clair de lune

“Moonlight Sonata” and “Sonate au Clair de lune” mean exactly the same in two different languages and both are used to refer to Beethoven's piece. If you wanted to be factually correct, the proper names for it are “Piano Sonata No. 14 in C-sharp minor” or “Sonata quasi una fantasia” but most people won't immediately recognize those names as they would with either Moonlight/Clair de lune

It's way funnier in the narrated version with Clair de Lune playing in the background

Also fuck Disney for trying to rob us of the Blubs and Durland love story

The EU should be ashamed of how incredibly hypocritical its diplomacy and foreign policy is showing itself to be in the last few months of international events.

It's been like that for far longer but now it's harder for people not to realize how low is to do all this grandstanding about evil Hamas killing those poor Israeli civilians while looking the other way and letting Azerbaijan do just whatever the fuck they want in Nagorno-Karabakh because we so desperately need their gas.
Where was all this “the scale of terror and brutality makes it so there can be no business as usual” energy then? Are we going to start calling Armenians terrorists in order to justify that one too?

Europe has deciduous morals with a shelf life of half a Truss.

Surely you understand the meaning of consensual.

I don't see how the military hegemony you openly spouse could lead to any sort of consensual agreement. Hegemony, by definition, is directly opposed to consensus.

Next thing you'll tell me the settler colonialism and de facto apartheid state Israel is directly enabling are absolutely necessary, for geopolitical reasons obviously.

Besides all that, if the point you're trying to make is that Israel needs the military spending to maintain its territorial integrity, I seriously question they would need 38bn USD in foreign aid just for that.
And that would be ignoring the fact Israel has been increasingly extending its territorial integrity over palestinian land for the duration of the conflict, and will continue to do so. Not a lot of “two-state solution” in that.

That's why Israel is getting 38 billion dollars (!) in a ten year period from the US, everyone knows you need an absurd amount of military equipment to reach a consensual two state solution.
