China is the reason we don’t have 5-6 dollar gas. They literally cut their imports to prevent economic disaster. If they begin buying at regular levels we would be the ones hurting more.

The USA can use the money saved for its own citizens (possibly even lowering their taxes!)
Ansar Allah (Houthis) is a terrible Islamist group that commits warcrimws against both Yemenis and people thousands of miles away.

Why can Israel have a nuclear weapon? It is also an insanely violent ethno-theocratic regime.
