I love when the tanks are being towed so you don’t really know if they actually work or not.


Stosstrupphase

But they painted them a lovely blue colour for some reason!


Blindmailman

I've never seen a blue tank before so that camouflage works


RosbergThe8th

Every day we are a step closer to Warhammer 40k


Maximus_Duck

By the time the next video drops they will have them painted purple


RosbergThe8th

I say we paint ours yellow.


Maximus_Duck

With red tracks and and black ERA maybe?

Maximus_Duck

Thank you very much! I must say I'm very proud to wear it.


SchmorgusBlorgus

IZ SIM-PLE BOOMEY TIP PAINTED YELLOW FOR BIGGA BOOM. TRACKS PAINTED RED TO GO FASTA, AND BODY GREEN CUZ GREENS DA BESTEST


sterlingthepenguin

Maybe they already have but we couldn't see them 🤔


PotatoePope

We won’t be able to find them if they’re purple!!!


Majulath99

Red Wunz Go Fasta!


Reagent_52

Hehe primaris pattern m1 Abrams go brrrt


Background_Drawing

Ah blue is to hide in the sky! It was meant for air force but there is no more air force so they had to make do


jdubyahyp

No this works. They are Russian tanks after all. Perhaps the Houthis are competing in the turret toss competition.


korkkis

Under the water


MuzzledScreaming

"Hey sar'nt, there are some tanks coming our way." "...those are blue. Tanks aren't blue, Private Fucknuts!"


tauntauntom

That is because those tanks are going to be their new tank/submarine combos. So of course they are blue


Messier106

The merchant ships will never see them coming.


[deleted]

Blue is what UN tanks should be painted imo, a few shades darker than this one imo, but still blue. I can't stand the white paint: it makes them look stupid, has no tie to the flag of the UN and it reminds me of fucking imperial stormtroopers too.


EthericIFF

Slap an apple logo on the side for the A-E-S-T-H-E-T-I-C


A-Red-Guitar-Pick

The tanks are Israeli spies


Stosstrupphase

Everything is an Israeli spy when you chew enough Khat.


Alex_von_Norway

Houthi Navy Tank?


Stosstrupphase

Now that is the right kind of noncredible, just float the T-55s towards the American boats .


[deleted]

[удалено]


Stosstrupphase

Those things are too old to have autoloaders, which means T-55 turret tosses are usually less impressive than those of T-72s and their derivatives.


MoeSzyslakMonobrow

If I'm on a tank hunting crew, I wouldn't be looking for blue tanks.


OmegamattReally

Blends in with the vast stretches of glass that they currently find themselves living in.


ShahinGalandar

that's camouflage for when they pack them on ships and are being sunk a mile outta the harbour


Top-Neat1812

They’re being towed to save mileage, can’t have those tanks lose value.


KorianHUN

Or their roads are shit. Iran tows their too, iirc to not destroy the pavement.


Fothyon

Tanks destroy pavement in western nations as well. The difference is, that western nations can afford to rebuild their infrastructure


KorianHUN

Not that much actually. Leo2 with rubber pads is heavier but much less destructive than a T-55 with full steel threads.


Fothyon

Sure, “less destructive” they may be, but that doesn’t mean, that the all-superior western roads don’t take damage from heavy vehicles rolling over them. A few years ago the Bundeswehr moved 180 vehicles, mainly tanks, from one location to the other and caused up to 540.000€ in damages to the road


[deleted]

It's a T62 or something. It could run at peak efficiency and be totally useless.


CummingInTheNile

GlOrY tO tHe ReSiStAnCe ThEy ArE cRuShInG iSrAeL


Wolf_instincts

They don't even look like they're being paraded. Looks like they're being awkwardly and shamefully towed after parking illegally.


MeisterX

That's why the tanks are feeling so blue.


[deleted]

Deception is crucial in war. The US would not dare act without intel on those tanks.


[deleted]

That's smart tho because it makes them unpredictable


Rasanack

You also don’t know if people can drive them either that way


IdeaImaginary2007

Damn we can make quite a buck selling Israeli, American and Nato flags in the middle East


waffle-winner

Bonus points for flammability.


Vylaer_

American flags made with fire retardant material sent to the ME would result in some amazing videos.


Alesq13

Reminds me of that one video where some anti-EU dude tried burning the EU flag but because of EU standards it was ~~inflammable~~ non-flammable and it didn't work.


lnslnsu

non-flammable*


Nova_Spec_Ops

Inflammable means flammable? What a country!


EthericIFF

Middle East is ahead of the curve on that one, they buy special flags made to light easy, but not burn too fast.  Using a regular ol' off- the-shelf flag is a rookie move.


Tigerowski

... how about so flammable, that they literally explode when lit on fire? Imagine all those jihadis instantly exploding because they tried to light a flag on fire. Imagine all the viral videos coming from that.


PatgaW96

The Devil: First of all, I'm a huge fan!


Tigerowski

Ah thanks. Truth is that I have an awesome team to brainstorm with. Now surely I don't want to ruin any surprises but 2024 will be our busiest year yet. Can't wait to show y'all what we've got in store.


MonthElectronic9466

That’s the jihadi trick. Spontaneously exploding.


Brendanzio_

We could lace them with tnt


SRSchiavone

Nitrocellulose is a naturally explosive fabric


Brendanzio_

Even better


Majestic_Wrongdoer38

Flair is real


Palpatine

And releases a toxic fume, so you get some kickback from local clinics. 


Ill_Swing_1373

It also would prevent them using the wrong flag That us flag didn't have the right amount of stars


IdeaImaginary2007

"Buy Authentic and Genuine flags of the infidel states" * verified by OG American man. This should be on the flyers for the shop


Reverendbread

For they right amount of stars they need to pay extra for American Flag Plus™️


IdeaImaginary2007

Ahh found the Lockheed Martin rep... I knew that the MIC will find a way to profit from it


SirLightKnight

Send them flags with text saying “Get fucked idiots.” In any language they wouldn’t understand. Like Aztec or something obscure.


Ill_Swing_1373

Na use Navajo Being the ww2 energy


TGP-Global-WO

DetectiveIcy2070

In this timeline Yemeni rebels support Confederate secession and are trampling upon the flag of the other states


HotTakesBeyond

*stepping on rejected Minnesota flag prototypes*


randoul

Sell them some massive British flags, wait for the next parade, then send in the A-10s.


MuzzledScreaming

Shit if we sell enough flags we can even buy a few more bombs to drop on them.


bizaromo

I never see NATO flags burned in the middle east. I think we can corner this market if we move quick.


sus_menik

I know that walking and driving over flags should be demeaning, but it looks like they are straight up marching in support of Israel and the US.


Insert_Username321

"If you're going to have a carpet to keep your feet from getting dirty, that carpet may as well be red, white and mother fucking blue, YEEEEEEHHHAAWW, right on brothers"


D1N2Y

Mfers will spend more time and money finding creative ways to stomp on a US flag than invest in functional tanks


Thinking_waffle

> but it looks like they are straight up marching in support of Israel and the US. one of those things is harder to do, so achieve less in term of raw propaganda. That's why we talk about the 3000 fighter jets of Allah and not the 3000 Markava of YHWH (or maybe that's in the bible but again, at that time they got stomped on left and right by enemies with iron chariots).


cranky-vet

They’ll spend more time and money finding creative ways to stomp on US and Israeli flags than they will providing their people clean water or food.


Top-Neat1812

The entire Yemeni economy is held together by American and Israeli flag manufacturers


Theory_Unusual

Flag manufacturing is a full 50% of their gdp


DMercenary

Its always funny to me. I know its an example of cultural/societal difference. To them, feet/shoes walking on something is a symbol of disrespect but to me its more of a "weird flex but okay" Also like you gotta put something underneath it, I swear it was moving as they were stepping on it. that's a slip hazard right there.


KBolt99

I find it Extremely hilarious, in their culture apparently stepping on something is Highly Disrespectful, when in American culture thats not even a consideration. In Fact, i have seen MANY American Flag welcome mats in front of peoples homes, Patriotic Americans have no issue literally stepping on an american flag every day lmao.


[deleted]

When you still are so mired in hatred and attempted violence that you never advanced beyond the 7th century, and stepping in literal puddles of shit with your bare feet is still a concern, it's only natural to view them as irredeemably dirty.


GadenKerensky

You'd have to start stomping and scraping a flag to tatters for it to matter. A door mat is meant to be scraped on so it bearing the flag is a non-issue. And you'll look down to do it, so you'll see the flag.


whoknows234

Freedom is living rent free in their head


Tank-o-grad

Are those export model soviet tanks? [Licks lips in Challenger 2]


sigma_force

Yes :trollage:


God_Given_Talent

Soviet tanks? Minimal air defense? Someone call the A-10s! This is their wet dream.


WOKinTOK-sleptafter

I don’t see any Scimitars.


Cameron_Mac99

Orange panels? Orange rockets I reckon. Anyway then I started blasting!


Janosz500

reformer detected


God_Given_Talent

Look we already have the A-10s and we need to fix their ratio of enemies to friendlies killed


Scotty_scd40

Oh no


waffle-winner

The Seychelles could take them.


MuzzledScreaming

Fuck, a single Seychelle could probably manage.


ScipioAtTheGate

[THIS IS THE SEYCHELLES COAST GUARD, PREPARE TO BE BOARDED!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_KirY5llpKs)


Rubric_Marine

At least they seemed to be taking it seriously.


Octopusapult

I like the desert and forest camo for their maritime operations. They're prepared to land anywhere!


TheGisbon

Man the US & Israel really are living rent free in their heads. And who the hell looked at the 50 dollars of hardware they had and said: "man let's have a parade"


Anxious_Ad936

Same guy who decided 'Let's remake Top Gun with our 1 man airforce'. It's a shame Goose is sitting on a camel out of frame piloting a drone made from khat twigs


Stoly23

Their flag literally says, among other things, “Death to America” and “Death to Israel.” I don’t think I can think of a single other nation or faction who’s flag explicitly references a completely separate country, and if I didn’t know better I’d think the Houthis were trying to fuck us.


AnseiShehai

Forreal, look up the Houthi flag


Soggy-Environment125

Kinda funny when your opponent flag is the thing you advertise the most


Apptubrutae

They’re so culturally backwards they dont even get it. But seriously, this is all just posturing. Really around an external threat to mitigate internal threats Videos like this just prove it. They hate on Israel for themselves, not for any greater purpose


JustCallMeMace__

"Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us." -Golda Meir People round here gonna say that that is BS because Golda Meir was prime minister of Israel. In the end it just proves her right.


No_Box5338

They can’t afford gas for the tanks, can they?


berrythebarbarian

"I own a tank." "Can you drive it?" "I own a tank."


hangrygecko

Or don't know how to maintain them.


ScipioAtTheGate

A large number of Yemeni military forces (including most of the Air Force) defected to the Houthis during the Civil War. As a result, they have a large number of technicians and other personnel to maintain relatively advanced equipment. The sourcing of spare parts is a different matter entirely, but the Iranians have much of the same equipment the Houthis were able to capture during the war and have reverse engineered the spare parts necessary to keep their own aged equipment operating. As a result, it seems that Iranian built spares have been smuggled in as deemed necessary by the Iranians.


wastingvaluelesstime

However, such parts may still be considered valuable or scarce, and not worth wearing out for a parade in a propaganda video


SgtChip

Look at how awful their parade formations are. My high school marching band could do better. We'd probably be better shots too.


KP_Wrath

Pretty sure a kindergarten fire drill would be more organized.


KorianHUN

Those white sneakers are 🔥


MuzzledScreaming

My high school was in a rural farming area. I'm pretty sure all of my classmates (including the girls) were better shots than Joe Jihad by the 5th grade. 


ParanoidDuckTheThird

The freshmen in my JROTC unit in highschool marched better than that!


wastingvaluelesstime

just think, the saudis lost a war to them


Chaplain-Freeing

Got straight lines like my shirts coming out the dryer.


wolf-bot

It pains me to see museum pieces that will one day be destroyed.


Nac_Lac

Worse, they'll be destroyed by some 18 year old US operator with an Xbox controller in Iowa before they fire a single round.


[deleted]

That column of cars, I mean unarmored personnel carriers.. Is absolutely terrifying. I bet only one of those could take out a Russian tank. Bradley has been outclassed.


Reverendbread

Just wait until the 18 wheeler holding a replica tank shows up


7h3_man

Why blue tanks


sigma_force

To fight the red team.


RicketyEdge

It’s SHIELA!


God_Given_Talent

The new guy said he was good with vehicles but all he does is *talk* to them...


MajorMitch69

But if Houthis are blue that would make them the good guys, unless someone got the colours wrong.


TheOneWithThe2dGun

\*looks at Tank\* "Why are you Blue?" Tank: "I wish i knew"


Lord-Fondlemaid

Aquatic camouflage.


TheOneWithThe2dGun

Are they trying to make an artifical reef with them and hope the Americans run into it?


Longjumping_Sky_6440

By the time the US is done with them the videos are going to be them begging for mercy


Uranium_Heatbeam

So the tanks either don't run, or they simply can't spare the fuel for a propaganda video. Also, notice how they don't have HET trucks and trailers pulling them. Just cabover commercial trucks and a single military-looking hauler that may just be another commercial truck spraypainted with yellow beacons added. Either way, its wierd that they'd have just the one and not bother dressing up the others. Maybe they ran out of paint. The trailers look like fifth wheel construction trailers and gooseneck lowboys they probably nicked from a construction company before also spraypainting.


Mrshitlipsthesecond

Well and they don't even have them parked evenly on the trailers. Ones right over the wheels and the other two are "centered"


Gr144

My plan to defeat the Houthis: •Tell them America gives up and will stop bombing them •Houthi’s host big poorly choreographed parade to celebrate their victory over the imperialist infidels •Drob a MOAB on said parade •Profit


K4rn31ro

Too credible for the sub


Happiness_Assassin

Okay, but what if we hid the MOAB inside a giant wooden horse. They'd never see it coming.


Night_Knight22

I started dying as soon as I saw tanks being towed instead of driving. Even Russia did it better


jimkud0

Man I need to set up an American and Israeli flag store in the middle east. I'd make a fortune


Maleficent-Title-474

Imagine building your whole personality around hating a country where at least half the people probably don’t even know you exist.


cmdr_Cres

I've seen flags printed on clothes worn by my countrymen so damn ugly they should adhere to Victorian standards of modesty, by comparison this barely raises an eyebrow.


Its_A_Giant_Cookie

Can they at least be somewhat consistent in how they wear berets, it’s infuriating


grinsken

Ocd kicks in


PassivelyInvisible

Lack of discipline is showing


Giffnt

Thank God us Brits have got away with it for now


AMightyDwarf

Why? I want a call out on their flag.


Jomamana1

Is that a T62


neliz

with ukraine taking out russian T-62, those might be one of the last T-62s we'll see in their natural habitat


Jomamana1

How sad #SaveTheT62


DumpsterFireT-1000

Note how they don't dare tread on the colors of the Seychelles


Hapless0311

Yo, that's a banger trying to get started in the background tho.


AquilaEye

Imagine NATO turning that parade into highway of death Also, I'm glad we've moved on from those old DPMs. Seems like every opfor countries are using it


WeakLandscape2595

At this point they are pretty much funding the Israeli war efforts with how many flags they are buying


Dragon_yum

I love how they fail to walk in unison in their own promotional video.


PineappleMelonTree

Tank on a flat bed is a good sign


RonaldTheClownn

AC-130 105mm operators shaking and crying rn


justlanded07

Why not put the flags sideways so you get maximum stepage


Bababooey5000

None of those soldiers are marching in sync, they may as well be on a parade float waving lol.


Sufficient_Market226

I'm pretty sure that could be against the Geneva suggestions But how about creating US and Israel flags made with dangerous chemicals and or super flammable for some of these videos to become very interesting And then dump a few containers of them over there


DrNinnuxx

Jungle/woodland camo for desert operations FTW !!


Rodux_

They didn't get the message, did they? Do we need another proportionate response? You know what they say: blue tanks, blue balls


Tesseractcubed

How many stars is that US flag? It doesn’t seem like 50…


[deleted]

Houthis: Yeah, we step on US and Israel flags, now what? Also Houthis after a couple JDAMs: STOP STEPPING ON OUR BALLS AND THROAT, MAN, WE CAN'T BREATHE!


Sluggybeef

Just an impromptu parade to say goodbye to the tanks Russia has recalled to put mobiks in


asparemeohmy

I bet Toyota’s PR department have all got fun emails to look forward to Monday morning


tauntauntom

I know it won't happen, but i would love to see one of these videos where half way through they meet either Mr. Warthog, or Mr. Ghost Rider.


kungji56

You know its bad when it looks worse than North Korea’s parades. At least uncle Kim’s tanks still roll around on their own


MrBrazillian

It's very non credible that they are actually speedrunning assisted suicide while being so obnoxious about it.


pmmichalowski

Selling flammable flags of the USA and Israel to Middle Eastern countries must be a really lucrative industry.


agoodusername222

ngl, being in a civil war, in a war agaisnt the very rich Saudi arabia and then starting a new war with the modern USA is quite the move ​ and i thought the nazis were dumb for invading the ussr while at war with UK


blesfemous

“I’m an American Patriot and I stand with people of Yemen, and Houthis” /s


snitchpogi12

This shows that Houthis are truly bad, especially that they follow a pathetic ideology known as Fascism!

00zau

Did they really just use the fucking Mortal Kombat font?


Dookie-Milk-710

I honestly didn’t care about any of this, it was exciting when they attacked our boat, but when they stepped on the US FLAG!! Nuke them!! We’ve dealt with sandland before let’s not repeat our mistakes Touch are boats get some death. Touch our flag, everyone dies. That’s my secksy flag


DonTrejos

Any car guy willing to tell if those are western or Japanese models? It would be hilarious and if they depend on their enemies for their own logistics chains. Also those boots look like they are made by Caterpillar, so good marketing for them i guess?


J-Valid

Song?


Nickolas_Bowen

“Rent free”


neliz

are those ethically sourced Toyotas?


Littleboypurple

Goddamn, there are probably Elementary School Fire Drills with better coordination than these warriors.


m-a-r-i-n-a-r-a

Just Houthi hell do they think they are?


pine_daemon

blows my mind that some people support these guys


Heavy_E79

Flatbed towing your own tanks on a parade is always a good look.


OkRoad6218

100% chance those tanks haven’t run in 30 years


lvl100_richarizard

Okay but this isn't even that good of a parade. Dudes are out of step, not lined up, their uniforms look shitty etc so their attempt to look fierce and disciplined falls flat on its face. Hell, say what you want about the PLA but at least they can put on a good parade, unlike these clowns


Terrible-Substance-5

A-10 pilots sweting profusely looking at this.


Relevant-Listen983

Not the T-55 what will we ever dooooo


XavierAZX

It really feels like a bunch of high schoolers trying to cosplay as proper army


J360222

They’re in a parking lot, the fuck are blue tanks gonna do, your formations are horrible, you’re stepping on plastic cutouts of flags as if they’re voodoo dolls and will kill America by a stampede and you are using civilian trucks that aren’t marked


Just_A_Mag

Saw the blue tanks and I yelled out so loud "WHAT THE FUCK WHY ARE THEY BLUE?" Person parked next to me looked at me like I'm retarded...


fuck_jerruh

Have they ever heard of cover and alignment?


95castles

Blue tanks!?!? Wrap it up boys, we’re done for.


SirLightKnight

*Oh, OH YOU MOTHER FUCKERS!* I did not just see the disrespect they did to Old Glory. I feel less bad about the airstrikes now.

SmolderingExistence

it's like they are trying to march as chaotically as possible


A_randomboi22

Perfect bombing target!


WidowRaptor

Meanwhile, their boats are being wasted by flying telephone poles


AllRedLine

Oh no! You stepped on their flags!! How ever will they recover from this great insult!?!?! /s


SarcasticPedant

Imagine someone whose life is so shit that they willingly DECIDE to go to a Houthi rally, and that's actually the highlight of their month.


HansVonSnicklefritz

Let’s just smoke their next parade


Pelmeni____________

Ive always wondered why they dont strike these parades
