Uh...

Yemen is one of the seven countries to apply a death penalty for consensual sexual acts between adults of the same sex.

It's good they're banding together to protect muslims against the threat of Israel (their words) but they're still a religious authoritarian nightmare.

Yemen is peak anti-colonialism. Which unfortunately comes with religious conservatism as a reaction against colonial forces. Fanon discusses this at length in the context of Algeria.

See how absurd that a country that has real human right abuses is doing more against a genocide than other countries that claim to care about human right abuses while bscking Israel.

When the west is going act like a real model and isolate Israel ?

Calling death penalty for gay sex just homophobia seems like it's downplaying it a bit lol
