    I created this video before the US and UK began initiating their airstrikes on the Houthis in Yemen. The problem with trying to make complicated videos about current events I suppose. If you want to learn more about what's happening and stay up to date to the hour, check out Ground News, they're really great: ground.news/reallifelore

      Yep the Panama canal is beginning to fail. Partially why the US gave it back to Panama ages ago. It saw what was coming. China is working with South America on train corridors.
      I don't think high speed shipping trains will become a thing. I don't think it's economical enough vs just scheduling deliveries of goods. It's the same reason a container ship goes less than half the speed of an American air craft carrier. Economics.

    Note: 60% of the estimated 377,000 deaths caused by the conflict in Yemen by the beginning of 2022 were attributed to malnutrition, poor access to healthcare, and contaminated water, according to UN estimates.
    It states that the fighting is known to have directly resulted in the deaths or injuries of over 11,000 children.
    One of the worst cholera outbreaks ever documented has also affected Yemen; since 2016, there have been 2.5 million suspected cases and roughly 4,000 deaths associated with the disease.

      What's to say? Nomadic migration and population density are mutually exclusive lifestyles. In the modern world, with our 8-10 billion mouths to feed, and apartments to heat, and cars to drive... even the Sami need snowmobiles and fuel, modern materials and tools now. There are fewer and fewer places where nomadic lifestyles are still feasible... partly because of human encroachment, but also climate change making their culture less applicable to their traditional habitat. You can already see where traditional ice crossings are no longer safe at the traditional times when they'd be used. The time to document their traditional practices has passed.

    For the Houthis, the very complicated ownership/management structure of maritime shipping and the fragility of the global economy are features, not bugs.

      That is their goal. If you look at statements from Houthi leadership they said from the start the blockade will end when Israel stops their genocide in Gaza and they are still letting ships that are not headed for Israel to pass. I would look to sources of information on this that are not the US, because the US is the country that is still sending Israel weapons. They are framing them as pirates because if they acknowledged that the blockade will end when the genocide ends, American citizens will ask why the Biden admin is using their countries military to make sure a genocide does not stop.

At that point, Palestinian civilian casualties had already become more than double Israeli civilian casualties.

During my first deployment, my ship was delayed going through the Suez by the Evergiven, none of us were complaining, though, because it gave us extra time in Greece.

    Australia has not refused to send ships to the Middle East to support the USA. Their ships are on other missions in support of the USA right now, like patrolling the seas around China. Australia doesn't have 500 destroyers like the USA does, they can't just create more ships out of the air.

      That's fine by us, as an American I understand we are uniquely positioned to project power across the globe. Just know we appreciate our wonderful allies in Australia. Helping to maintain peace in the pacific is a valuable contribution and if anyone suggests you aren't pulling your weight I'd argue they aren't paying attention. Just remember to call your governing officials and encourage as much aid to Ukraine as possible. Every dollar spent helping them defend it's self is worth one hundred dollars defending ourselves.
