Important to note that this is a unilateral action by US and UK and that there has been no UNSC authorization for this. This is western rules based world order reading its ugly head once again.

2024 looking rough already.
I'm split between not wanting the US to cause more wars and kill more inocent civilians and the hope of what could come from them being more overstreched than ever on all the fronts they are fighting and getting rekt on all of them.
- US regime finally imploding would be the best thing that could happen for the rest of humanity.
Since numerous rocket volleys have been launched at US ships in the region, this would likely fall under the self defense exception under UN rules.
- Oh no! Not enforcement of a blockade!
  
  I’m not saying the US are the good guys but I don’t think the legal prohibition on force applies to this strike because of the antecedent conditions.
