CNN is reporting that"The United States conducted a strike recently targeting Qassim al-Rimi, the leader of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, the terror group's franchise based in Yemen that has repeatedly expressed interest in conducting attacks targeting the United States, a US official told CNN." AYFKM? Mercenaries for hire just like Blackwater.
Last November Stripes dot com reported that"A planned troop buildup in Saudi Arabia is moving forward, with some U.S. forces on the ground and others set to deploy on a mission to deter Iranian aggression, President Donald Trump confirmed Tuesday in a letter to Congress." To curb Iranian aggression. I see. To curb their aggressive resistance to American ownership of their oil.
The Pentagon used Donald Trump to lie to congress. Looks like Q dropped the ball.
The Washington Post is reporting that"President Trump, who often praises Saudi Arabia as a partner and a prolific buyer of American arms, said late Friday that the kingdom “has agreed to pay us for everything we’re doing to help them.” Saudi Arabia has paid $500M toward US troops.
So Trump sends US troops to Saudi Arabia to curb a fake Iranian aggression, and they help the Saudi dictatorship bomb Yemen. At what point along the way did we lose our moral conscience?
