So here are the five signs you’re probably dealing with a terrorist organization, for inexplicably confused world leaders:
1) it’s backed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps;
2) its official slogan is, “Death to America, death to Israel, curse the Jews and victory to Islam”;
3) its members dance with AK-47s after commandeering maritime vessels;
4) it supports Hamas, which murdered, raped and kidnapped civilians in Israel on October 7;
5) its members film themselves planting explosives on oil tankers and sinking them as if they’re on holiday.
The announcement that the Houthis have finally been named a terrorist entity is good news, but it shouldn’t have taken this long. Likewise, the years of foot-dragging before Ottawa finally listed the IRGC as a terrorist entity last June made no logical sense…but Liberals or whatever.
Unless, of course, condemning the group that backs and funds other listed terror entities, such as Hamas and Hezbollah, is unpopular among those living in the sitting foreign affairs minister’s riding. I mean, who can tell why these decisions get delayed?

The Houthis have been attacking ships in the Red Sea for the past year. Why did it take the federal government so long to list it as a terrorist organization?
