Again, it doesn't make the US responsible for the actions or mishaps of a military campaign.

And the arms market is global. They could be buying that stuff from any regime that makes and sells weapons - of which there are dozens. The US sells weapons to more than 100 nations, including SA (which other nations sell to as well)
Are we responsible for the use every nation makes of every weapon we sell?

No.

Yes, there are a few globalists who have hijacked foreign policy in the past, like Obama and his reign of "regime change" wars in four theatres. And they are aided by a Deep State bureaucracy. Its hard to shut it all down, obviously. There are so many entanglements caused by these hijackers that we will be damned if we do and damned if we don't when it comes to disengagement and true neutrality.

The US became militarily entangled with Saudi Arabia in the early 70s (Google "petrodollars"). Trump isn't disentangling us at all. Every president since Nixon has "kissed the hand" of the Saudi king--and Trump had done that long before becoming president.

Because the women are constantly being raped. Pretty sure the women don't want the kids.
Someone left this comment on my rep points page. And my response to this is, not all the pregnant women are victims of rape. They are still having sexual relations with their husbands and boyfriends.
Having babies is just because they don't use birth control in Third World countries, when they should be.

Birth control makes no sense when infant mortality is high, a family survives on its own subsistence, and there is no government social security in old age.

And who cares anyway? Its not an American, why should Americans care if some foreigner on the other side of the planet lives or dies?


Thanks for helping to kill the silly notion that America is a Christian nation!

I'm guessing that poster must be pro-choice.

When you have troops in over 150 countries, we are not going to be without blame.
Save the tax payers money and lets pull all our troops and all multinational corporations back to our borders.

You'd like to assume the worst...the reality is that you don't know.

BTW there is no "on the ground" targeting assist for this kind of a strike. Observers are only used for anti-personnel missions in scenarios where a target needs to be designated because it is impossible to identify from the air. Given the topography and location, there was no FO support for this airstrike.

So what else you got?
If you have shares in weapons companies, you are indeed responsible.
You helped kill little children and women by your dollars.
People say the same thing when people disagree with trade with China and buy goods from Walmart.

Only money changers say dammed if we, dammed if we don't in order to escape responsibility.
I was against the Saudi Regime since 911 up to the present day.
