Tim’s take
He returns to Yemen as the go-to example of a war nobody in America wants to talk about, invoking Saudi bombing campaigns funded and armed by the US as a genocide that gets no coverage compared to Ukraine or Gaza 29:34 59:20 16:38. He uses it to needle selective humanitarian outrage and neocon foreign policy more broadly, and even makes it part of a joke about a viral "hot Houthi pirate" video 47:17 53:41. He's also said flatly he has no interest in telling Yemenis how to live 56:57.
