A senior United Nations official defended the decision by President Joe Biden to limit his response to the Yemen Houthi terrorist organization to a weak “global terrorist” branding, claiming the move can help “safeguard many transactions necessary for our humanitarian activities.”
The official – Edem Wosornu, the director of operations at the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs – added, however, that even this minimal action could hurt the destitute economy of Yemen and thus elevate the humanitarian needs of civilians.
Biden’s administration announced that he would brand Ansarullah, the official name of the Houthi terrorist gang, a “Specially Designated Global Terrorist” (SDGT) in January, a label under the U.S. Treasury that imposes some weak limits on the group’s financial transactions.

“safeguard many transactions necessary for our humanitarian activities.”
The arms shipments can get through.
Didn’t know there was such a thing as terrorist rankings.
How do Houthies compare to White People in the FJB DC Marxist terrorist evaluation rankings?

The term “terrorist” to replace “enemy soldiers” should be retired, its widespread use has done us much more harm than good.
What to do with enemy soldiers (kill them, using what the Congress in 1941 referred to as “all the resources of the country”), then conquer and occupy the lands whence they came (Pakistan and Saudi Arabia, for 9/11), and when the flag of an American governor is flying over the former governing structures of the enemy, begin re-education. THAT is what one does with enemy soldiers.
“Terrorists”? Pfft! Put them in prison. Get them lawyers. Eventually, let them go because the powerful forces that sent them want them back. THEN, utilize the law enforcement machinery built to treat enemy soldiers like “terrorists” against your own population, just in case they think a change of scenery on the Potomac would be a good idea.
No Mas! Was Fuchida a “terorist”? Was Nagumo? Halder? Brauchitsch?
Where are their governments now? Why are their countries no longer sending raiders to attack us? By contrast, expect to be paying reparations to the families of the “terrorists” still inexplicably alive at our base in Cuba, alive because no one knows what a “terrorist” really is, or what to do about him - unless that “terrorist” somehow voted for Donald Trump, used a bad word, or failed to follow the science.
Wake up.
During the war in Afghanistan about 25,000 Afghanis took part. Today, they remain the most backward Muslim nation on earth; to take away their khat narcotic would be much more damaging that taking away foreign aid.
HAMAS & THE PALIS certainly showed their true colors-—
BUT SO HAS THE UN.
They attacked international shipping.
The U. N. is a VERY screwed up organization.
