McCain voted against an effort 6 months ago to end the Saudi slaughter of Yemen—a siege thats killed 15K+ and created a million cases of cholera. He routinely backs the war & selling of arms to the Saudis. Now he’s a champion against genocide? What universe do you people live in?https://twitter.com/JeffreyGoldberg/status/1033721013706665985 …
It was fully within McCain’s ability to end the Saudi destruction of Yemen earlier this year. He decided not to because the Saudi’s serve American regional interests. His concern for “human rights” was arbitrary and self-serving PRhttps://www.truthdig.com/articles/human-rights-champion-john-mccain-silent-efforts-end-war-crimes-yemen/ …
I am not American. To put it bluntly. McCain was a very commited American patriot. American patriots are right to respect him. But McCain’s patriotism did not give a damn about humanity outside USA or if it kills thousands of innocents in Yemen, Syria etc. Period.
“Patriotism” is the Kool-Aid that fuels the very same imperialistic slaughter of citizens abroad.
my eyes rolled back into my brain by the end of 2007, some 80,000 Iraqi civilians had died since the start of the invasion. https://www.iraqbodycount.org/analysis/numbers/2007/ …pic.twitter.com/VhIRVoDasC
He was a mixed bag
Nothing mixed in him. He was a serial warmonger and warcriminal and part of the U.S murder machine who have killed 20-30 million people around the world since ww2 in regime change operations. He goes straight to hell
He was too much of a war monger but he did served bravely and didn’t get released when he could have out of loyalty to his men. He also supported campaign finance reform so that is where I say that the truth is mixed.
His service record includes killing more than 134 americans in reckless stupidity which led to deadly explosion on aircraft carrier.https://www.theburningplatform.com/2018/08/26/mccain-the-hero-nearly-sunk-an-aircraft-carrier-killed-134-sailors/ … He also sang like a canary while held by vietkong.

Supporters of McCain generally repeat what he said. Detractors point out what he did.
John McCain is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
you must keep shit company
@JeffreyGoldberg Doesn't see Arabs as people though.
He also didn’t see Vietnamese people as human I think he said “I will hate those gooks until the day I die”.
Yeah, well, they tortured him for 5 and a half years so that might have something to do with his perscpective. Are you aware there is a real world out there?
That Iran deserved to be bombed?
He didn't bomb Iran, he joked about it. It wasn't very nice of him, sure, but that's not what I was talking about, anyway. I was just saying maybe put the " hating the gooks" thing in context.
15k is almost certainly a low estimation of the Yemen death toll
McCain voted against ending US support for Saudi Arabia in a war against houthi rebels who’ve killed and displaced so many innocent Yemenis.
You're really going to defend what we're helping the Saudis do in Yemen? We're killing children.
You’re so mislead by our media. The houthi militias are the enemy. Just look at the conditions in the liberated cities and compare them to the areas controlled by the Houthis.
I don't own a tv and haven't watched any mainstream media in years.
So many tribe leaders in Yemen spoke against the houthi rebels and pledged their allegiance to the Saudi led coalition. The people of Yemen want nothing more than to rid their country of those rebels who started this war.
Dr. Muneer Alsharqi was just a civilian who refused to aid houthi rebels. This is what they did to him. They’re freaking monsters! Look at what they did to their “ally” the former president of Yemen. They killed him and dismembered him on video.pic.twitter.com/Mq2KW2SQ8k
