COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE GUARDIAN
Yemen is entering its
fourth year of war – when will the suffering end?
Maybe, just maybe, when Britain and Canada and other NATO
allies stop selling hundreds of tons of costly weapons to one of the world's worst
governments, Saudi Arabia?
Here is a government which not only kills and suppresses
some of its own people, it conducts bloody war in Yemen and Syria.
Its new Crown Prince usurped his position, kidnapped a bunch
of other princes, and held them to ransom for many billions.
Yet we sell them weapons, just unbelievable amounts of
weapons.
But it's all just fine because women now can drive cars in
Saudi Arabia?
Or is it really because a new hyper-aggressive United States
says, "Do it or else, because these guys are helping with my dirty work”?
