running by Obama and Hillary's State Department. They were trying to cover it up. That's what the ambassador was doing there. Iran got a nuke under Obama.

There was a huge arms sales to Saudi Arabia in September 2016. - Obama administration sold $1 billion worth

of weapons to Saudi Arabia, soundly defeating a bid to derail the deal pushed by lawmakers critical of the kingdom’s role in Yemen’s civil war.

You are correct. I didn't agree with that - deal either.

There are some differences in the deals though and Obama backed out of the deal later on. There were humanitarian issues attached to the Obama deal and when those weren't met, he backed out. Trump says he is giving them what Obama wouldn't give them with no humanitarian issues attached.

I am not defending Obama or bashing Trump. I am pointing out the differences in what I believe were bad deals on both parts. We should not be selling arms to the Saudis.

I am glad to see both parties in the senate are trying to right a wrong and stop any further arms deals with the Saudi's.

Riyadh's rival Iran denounced the assault on the Houthi militia group, which it backs, and made clear the kingdom's deployment of a Sunni coalition against Shi'ite enemies would complica ...

Yemen's Handling Of Ex-Gitmo PrisonersNov 29, 2009
ADEN, YEMEN -- Two years ago, Mohsin al-Askari was released from his prison cell at Guantanamo Bay, but he has found neither freedom nor a new life in his homeland. Potential employers are afraid to hire him. At 28, he depends on his father for financial support, charities for medical care. With each rejection, his frustration grows, as does the temptation to return to his old life of jihad. "The government hasn't done anything to help me," said Askari, his voice filled with bitterness. ...

Senator Lieberman Calls For 'preemptive' Attack On YemenDec 28, 2009

War mongers cry poor when it comes to healthcare for Americans, but they always seem to have enough money for wars. I have to wonder if any of this has to do with Lieberman having dual citizenship with Israel, and I wonder where his loyalty truly lies.) By Stephen C.
