Episode notes
US Double-Taps Yemen Fuel Port
- The U.S. bombed Yemen's Ras Issa fuel port twice, killing at least 22 civilians including paramedics.
- This double-tap strike severely worsens Yemen's humanitarian crisis by targeting vital civilian infrastructure.
Civilian Infrastructure Bombed Under Pretext
- CENTCOM justifies bombing civilian infrastructure by accusing Houthis of profiting from fuel.
- This reasoning ignores the devastating humanitarian impact on millions of Yemenis relying on fuel for basic survival.
Trump Delays Iran Attack Plans
- Trump is "not in a rush" to attack Iran and prefers diplomacy despite Israeli push for strikes.
- Israeli covert attacks have ironically fueled Iran's increased nuclear enrichment rather than stopping it.
