    Please keep up the criticism. You’ve been taking a lot of flak for contesting the idea that Ansarallah will have carte blanche to disrupt Red Sea shipping. But it’s important to do that if we’re to predict anything. And it’s all hard enough to predict as it is, at the moment.

      Thank you, that means quite a lot to hear you say that. Like you already pointed out, I’m just trying to add context and pushback to a very delicate and tense political situation where what’s going on isn’t clear cut and hardly heading towards an obvious conclusion.

      I just hope that my context does not come across as disparaging the actions of the Ansarallah or supporting any action that might be taken against them, as I fully support what they are doing, and the cause they are doing it for. It just seems that it’s really easy for most to get lost in pure ideological support and forget that actions such as these have international consequences.

      Like you also mentioned, making conclusions or predictions is a fools errand with how early in the situation it is, but it’s important to have all the available information before making any conclusions.
