The almost exclusive attention given to ‘RussiaGate’ has been a pathetic display, magnified not only by the fact that it turned out to be untrue, but also by the fact that many of Trump’s actual crimes have been completely overlooked in the pursuit of phony Russian “collusion”. Case in point: Trump just vetoed a congressional resolution to end U.S. support for Saudi Arabia’s slaughter of thousands of Yemen’s poorest civilians with the help of U.S.-made weapons and U.S. military strategy.
The U.S., being the world’s largest weapons dealer, and Saudi Arabia the world’s top buyer of First World weapons, creates massively lopsided wars, with one side almost exclusively bearing the brunt of the casualties.
It’s just one of many examples of barbarians from the Third World equipping themselves with weapons purchased from barbarians of the First, and unleashing a campaign of mass murder against the civilian population of their enemy.
Trump, in defiance of Congress, supports this. And the media ignores it.
