"We will randomly attack and kill civilians until you do what we demand" went by another name for quite some time...

But hey... we all know that things like terrorism, war crimes or genocide are suddenly okay once you agree with the cause. So keep being a proud cheerleader for terrorism.

The official slogan of the Houthi movement (it's not just a tribe, it's more a group on par with Al Qaeda at this point): "God Is Great, Death to America, Death to Israel, Curse on the Jews, Victory to Islam". So yeah, it's those kind of people. It's great that they want peace in Gaza and all, but they also want some other not so great things too.

Targeted attacks against IDF terrorist ships

"Randomly attack civilians"

Pick one

I pick the reality of civilian transport ships actually attacked over Houthi propaganda.

I assume you are referring to the US there buddy.

No, I'm referring to reality, not your alternate mirror-universe version.

The one where militants attacking civilians don't become innocent civilians because you like their terror.

Yes reality of systemic terrorism vs insurgent non-state terrorism. The US is absolutely a terrorist state causing the majority of the insurgent non-state terrorism to which you speak. The US being Team America: World Police will never solve these conflicts, only exacerbate and spread them. If you think these things happen in a vaccum without provocation, then you need start reading more broadly.
