        How about Congress demands that the Saudis stop using the Darfur Genocide Wahhabi-extremist Sudanese Janjaweed militia as mercenaries in Yemen? Or that the UAE stop using 'reformed' al Qaeda to fill out the ranks of their Wahhabi Al Amalaqah Brigades attacking Hodeidah?

        It’s just disheartening that it took murder of Khashoggi to get attention of Congress, press, public. (I’m guilty myself.)
