US-Supplied Bombs 'Fulfill Duties' in Yemen, Says Houthi Chief
Yemen's Houthis announce the death of Chief of Staff Muhammad Abd Al-Karim al-Ghamari, euphemistically stating he was killed 'while fulfilling his duties.' Conveniently unmentioned by outlets like Al-Monitor (via Reuters) is that these 'duties' often involve missile strikes enabled by an unending supply of US and UK weapons and intelligence. This follows a pattern of collective punishment against
Yemen, intensified since the Houthis began targeting shipping in response to actions in Gaza. The US has provided over $54 billion in military aid to Saudi Arabia, which has led a brutal campaign against Yemen since 2014, making Washington a direct enabler of the violence that ‘killed’ al-Ghamari. Such deaths are framed as isolated incidents, not predictable outcomes of sustained military
intervention. The 'war on terror' playbook—drones, special ops, and deniable assassinations—is alive and well, just rebranded. How many Houthi chiefs need to 'fulfill their duties' before Western media connects the dots between a deceased commander and the weapons systems making it possible?
