Not halted; The Houthi movement has been firing missiles and sending drones at civilian vessels. They were given fair warning to stop by the coalition members of Operation Prosperity Guardian, and continued to attack anyway.

  1. This isn't Yemen, it's the Houthis. AFAIK, the internationally recognized State of Yemen isn't involved.

  2. We're talking international shipping routes. What the Houthi movement is engaging in is piracy, plain and simple.

I mean... disrupting international trade is just asking for trouble.

That's not even a "capitalism bad" thing; it's just a matter of fact that safe international trade needs to be a thing in order to have a global economy

Well, slander tends to be fictitious, so its inverse would just be facts that paint someone in a positive light.

Unfortunate, but understandable. The only thing that'd be worse than a mission-ending malfunction is one that results in someone getting killed. I've got faith in NASA to get it right.

I got it. Can someone else handle the drinks, though?
