    It is obvious what side you are on.
    The side of reason? The side of justice? Which also happens to be the opposite side on which the US government finds itself?

    When are you going to learn that US foreign policy is not done for you benefit or the benefit of America? But for the benefit of an elite power structure that treats you like a tax mule?

    When are you going to learn that foreign lobbies are manipulating our government in order to get Americans to fight their wars for them?

    Or are you just going to keep putting childish faith in a government that does nothing but lie to you and squander your tax money?

    Who says we are not allowed to see that information. We also know that Obama armed alQaeda through Libya and funded them through Qatar in Syria.

    We do what is in our interests. Sometimes it is short term and sometime it is long term. China just takes what it wants They don't care what anyone thinks.

    I believe private entities in Saudi Arabia are funding al-Qaeda, not the Saudi government.

    Why? Because they are the most dangerous transnational terror op going these days. They have the talented bombmakers (the ones we have not killed yet that is) that are good enough to have a chance of getting a bomb onto a Western airliner. They also have operatives savvy enough to infiltrate the West and fit in, at least until they start a killing rampage.
    Now imagine them gifted a Taliban government in Afghanistan who will harbor, facilitate, and support.

    For some reason , the US military has a need to control Yemen , through their Saudi proxy , and have been the mastermind of the world biggest humanitarian disaster since it started in 2014.
