Tulsi Gabbard: US needs to 'stop pretending' Saudi Arabia is an ally
The Hill ^ | June 2019

Posted on 06/28/2019 11:16:49 AM PDT by CondoleezzaProtege

You can go down a laundry list of things that show that even as much as the policy establishment claims Saudi Arabia is an ally of the United States and they’re battling terrorism and all of these things — they’re simply not true,” Gabbard told Hill.TV in an interview that aired on Friday.

“Their interests are not serving the interest of the American people,” she continued.

Gabbard accused Saudi Arabia of deliberately pushing the U.S. toward a war with Iran amid escalating tensions between the two nations.

Her comments come after Trump and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman posed next to each other for a photo of world leaders at the Group of 20 summit in Japan. The two leaders were spotted exchanging pleasantries and making conversation.

The reason liberals are siding against Saudi Arabia is they side with Iran.

Secondarily, SA is making very substantive peace overtures with Israel.

In short, they are just always wrong.

15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers were Saudi

The Al Qaeda leadership was Saudi

Large parts of the funding was Saudi

Headline is wrong:

U.S. needs to ‘stop pretending’ Tulsi Gabbard is a patriot.

This BIMBO was for the war (while she was in it) before she was against it.

This BIMBO stood by her parents values including traditional marriage before she was against it.

This BIMBO is a hare Krishna nutjob.

This BIMBO is whining about our immigration issues, while she AND HER PARTY refused to fund the Wall or even basic humanitarian aid.

And this BIMBO is too stupid to understand NO ONE APPROVES of Saudi Arabia except as a bulwark AGAINST IRAN.

Does she have a leather jacket like Fonzi? It would come in handy right now for a waterskiing trick.

I think Gabbard’s ability to form a cogent thought approaches that of a broken clock being right. Trump won’t give her a second thought.

Her main skill is pandering and even that is a work in progress.

If we had delayed going into Europe until 1945, then the Soviet Union would have been crushed and the Nazis would have run out of soldiers before the invasion.

We saved the USSR by forcing the Nazis to fight a two front war.

Our two mortal enemies were locked in a fight to the death. We saved one of them

I'm standing up, CLAPPING..!
