    Big brain idea, give the weapons to the Houthis, indigenous peoples of Canada, and random kids in SE Asia.

    We’ll be like Santa Clause.

        I see someone got the joke. 😂

        Here’s some bombs. Don’t blow them all in one place kid.

          I don’t think we should bombing Yemen, or helping Saudi Arabia do it, but when you suggest giving guns to a group that calls for genocide in its motto you’re going to get pushback even as a “joke.”

            We’re already giving guns to Israel, and arming a group calling for genocide has never bothered the US before.

            I would go far enough to say it’s the American way. Manifest destiny and 2A for everyone! 😂

            Anyway, we shouldn’t be arming anyone. Dumping lots of weapons doesn’t lead to great outcomes, and all it does is fuel violence. If not now, later.
