This is the flag of the Houthis [1], they are sponsored by Iran, as are the likes of Hezbollah, and Hamas. They have similar language in their charters.

How is that not casus belli?

US first started bombing Yemen in 2002. That flag was adopted by Yemen in 2014

Article 51 recognizes states' rights to individual or collective self-defense. Israel has a plausible self-defense claim based on Iran's proxy attacks against it and explicit mission of destroying it. Under that argument, Israel's allies also have a right to act in its defense.
