Unfortunately, it's not a surprise. Our tax money funds evil across the world. The US-Saudi genocide in Yemen is subsidized by tax money. Since 2014, over one hundred thousand Yemeni children aged between one and five years old have starved to death because of the American blockade.

@BlueMetalChick When they attack our own, it is treason.

@FlowersNButterflies When the Americans attacked other Americans you mean?

No, when the Americans on the American payroll attacked other Americans. @BlueMetalChick

Look at page 3 and 4 and notice how much we contributed - oh my those were the Trump years

@FlowersNButterflies That is what I meant, yes. Because then it's treachery to attack your own countrymen.

@MarmeeMarch So, you're telling me that the Trump administration simultaneously was blockading an entire country and indiscriminately bombing everything in sight, but also conducting humanitarian effort to save the people they'd just tried to kill?

That article is about the United Nations attempt to stop the genocide in Yemen. The United States is the one currently committing it. Well, Saudi Arabia with help from the United States, I guess.

Trump is the one who invited Saudi onto the UN human rights panel. As if that's not a fucking joke.
@BlueMetalChick Sorry - the USA cant solve all the problems of the world - in fact I think we should butt out..

@MarmeeMarch "Sorry, we can't solve all the problems in the world."
Maybe not, but we can stop CAUSING some of them. The situation in Yemen only exists because we're blockading the country and bombing everything. To solve that problem, we could just...y'know, not do that. Are you really gonna tell me you think it's a good idea to spend two trillion dollars a year on a blockade, bombing campaign, and arming a bunch of Muslim terrorists in SA?
@BlueMetalChick When was the last time we block aided or bombed the places you mentioned ?

@MarmeeMarch Uhhhhhh right now. We've been blockading Yemen for seven years. What rock have you been living under? We were already supporting the Saudi incursion. George H. W. Bush started that shit back in 1990. Then Clinton kept it going, Bush Jr. ramped it up, and in 2014 Obama actually put the USA into active combat in Yemen as opposed to just supporting Saudi.
@BlueMetalChick So with all those presidents doing what they did what is the issue - why did they do it. BTW - I dont pay attention to world affairs
in Middle East shitholes or in that area.
