"Pompeo holds talks in Saudi Arabia as Iran threatens U.S. drones."
Iran threatens drones?
Drones sent over the country’s territory in the middle of the night with required safety transponders turned off in order to spy on people who have done absolutely nothing wrong? Drones sent by people who frequently use them to kill, having killed thousands of people that way in recent years?
My God, what a terrifying threat.
Perhaps, the US could just stop sending their creepy flying spies, pack up their armada, including two aircraft carriers, and their nuclear-capable bombers sitting at airfields, and go home?
Oh, I guess that would be asking too much. Asking the United States to act reasonably.
And here they are holding talks with Saudi Arabia, unquestionably the bloodiest government we've seen anywhere in quite some time.
Represented by Mike Pompeo who, only very recently at a university campus in Texas, joked and laughed about "lying, cheating, and stealing" over at the CIA, where he worked in the past.
America's mad drive to dominate everyone everywhere nicely summed up in one vignette.
Now, ask yourself when we hear even the slightest sound of disapproval about any of it from Canada and in whose favor our foreign policy has been so badly twisted these days?
It is not a happy thought.
