It is not genocidal to fight back against imperial forces that have destroyed your land and slaughtered your people. Not saying I agree with all of their actions but they do not exist as 'evil' in a vacuum. If you lived on a planet that was constantly bombed by an alien species would you not want to destroy them? Would the pain of only seeing constant suffering and death all around you not blind you with rage? It's just that but at a country scale.
That's not who the Houthis are actually fighting and it's not who they're genocidally threatening. The IDF is not afraid of Ansar Allah. A Sunni Yemeni (or a Zaydi middle schooler who doesn't want to take up arms) sure is, though.
