>The Trump administration is poised to move quickly to approve major weapons packages for Saudi Arabia and Bahrain that President Obama blocked during his final months in office over human rights concerns in both nations, U.S. officials and congressional sources say

>The deals, if approved, would send a significant signal about the priorities of the new administration, where the security challenge posed by forces such as Islamist jihadi groups and Iran is taking a much greater precedence in setting foreign policy.

>The Pentagon also declined to comment. But congressional sources said they anticipate the Trump administration will easily overcome resistance on Capitol Hill, where Democrats and some Republicans have called for restrictions on sales to Riyadh amid an outcry from human rights groups over large-scale civilian casualties of the Saudi-led military campaign in neighboring Yemen.

>“While we’re very concerned about Saudi actions in Yemen in terms of the civilian casualties, we believe a more accurate partner is a more effective partner and results in fewer casualties,” the official said. “If they’re going to drop stuff, it should be precision-guided rather than dumb.”

So... USA make money by selling weapons to radical muslims so that they can kill other radical muslims?

That is bad for the USA, why?

>>109543
I don't want to be making money of decreasing global stability.
Fuck being an edgy kid; maybe sometimes you have to kill people. But I want my economy to be built on facilitating human development.

Another thing both Hillary and Trump had in common. Was this election even a choice?
>>
>>109543
Because those very weapons could end up in enemy hands, pointed back at us?

But in all honesty, I don't think Trump will mind at all if those weapons end up with the Hajis anyway. Got to keep that terror gravy train rolling somehow...

Nixon/Reagan era stupidity.
Why not give the Saudis access to the jets and the training in America and they can do suicide missions in the USA ( or, if we’re lucky, take down Trump tower in Manhattan).

Oh, yeah. 9/11. We already done that . ..

>Republics are a form of Democracy.
Only if you muddy the waters like lefties/communists do. In the ancient world, they were very different things, and that's where the words originate.
