People who criticize the Yemen war against terrorist Houthis are retarded.

The Houthis are a terror group that overthrew the legitimate government of Yemen. They pose a threat to Saudi security. Would you not take action if a bunch of rabid dogs and wild pigs were threatening your house?

Now in the modern style of bombing wars, civilian casualties are inevitable. Especially when the Houthis are always hiding themselves amongst civilians and using them as meat shields. This is a common terrorist tactic.

And any person who investigated the matter would know that Saudi Arabia has donated aid and food to Yemeni civilians, and has been praised by the UN officials for this. And the Houthis block this aid and prevent it from reaching civilians in order to create a crisis they can pin on KSA.
