    Iran is a whole ass country, the Houthis are a rebel faction, for lack of a better term. I think this whole situation is kinda different… Matter of opinion I guess…

      Houthis are the de facto government of Yemen which is important because the US is claiming the right to self defence which is only available between states.under international law. That’s why for example Israel’s argument of self defence is nonsense because Gaza is not a separate country.
