In the same breath he says the US in Syria for humanitarian reasons. Assad didn't want to buy billions in US weapons?
This is policy being influenced/dictated by lobbyists of the arms industry. Trump is saying that our economy is dependent on selling weapons to theocratic dictators who use those weapons to murder tens of thousands of innocent people. This must change.https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/video/2018/oct/12/trump-khashoggi-case-will-not-stop-110bn-us-saudi-arms-trade-video …

A US general just made a statement that we must prevent Syria from regaining control of their oil, because it would allow them to rebuild their infrastructure. Ya know, because the humanitarian thing to do is deny Syrians clean water, safe roads, and electricity.

Saudi Arabia’s role in the 9/11 attacks didn’t keep W or Obama from selling them weapons, so I doubt the war in Yemen or Khashoggi will.

Please speak out on Asia Bibi,
@TulsiGabbard. You can have an impact. From the State Dept.: "According to civil society reports, there were at least 50 individuals imprisoned on blasphemy charges, at least 17 of whom had received death sentences." https://www.state.gov/j/drl/rls/irf/2017/sca/281032.htm …

This policy is being dictated by our position of servitude in the petro-dollar scheme to keep our currency strong by the back room deals that assure the world largest oil exporter trade their oil in US dollars. THAT IS WHAT NEEDS TO CHANGE, but first it needs to be acknowledged.

It's an arms deal Tulsi. Happens all the time with our ALLIES. It would be different if he was working a deal w/cash flown in under radar with IRAN! AND Trump didn't say our 'economy is dependent on selling weapons to dictators'-c'mon! Your better than this..

Think about what you just wrote. We should not have “allies” who unleash terror on the world, stone women to death, commit genocide, kill children and murder journalists. Last I checked, Iran wasn’t murdering thousands of civilians in neighboring countries.

Don’t waste your time trying to change corrupt politicians and lobbyists. You live in a country where people are ok to pay taxes for their military, police forces and prisons. Americans need to want to pay for healthcare and education before their ‘leaders’ will follow.

You are correct, this neocon mentality & war for profit must end. Yemeni is hurting & Saudi Arabia & the whomevers in the USA are to blame. Having said that, are forefathers stated we should stay out of other countries' affairs, peace

Forefathers must be very disappointed then as the US has done nothing but get involved.. And Obama was the worst in quite some time and Hillary would already have invaded Syria after Isis failed

Tulsi see your point, but fact is USA needs to invest in, educate, train, hire Americans w R&D to make best ‘peaceful’ products in world like S. Korea, Sweden, Singapore. By destroying US workers, you, Tulsi Gabbard are doing more for arms manufacturers than Trump could ever do.pic.twitter.com/KM3P5C9CfZ
