This is the same Saudi Arabia that Trump bluntly accused of masterminding 9/11, of loving to kill gays and enslaving women, the same country that Trump said, after his election, should be banned from exporting any oil to the United States. But this was a few days before the Saudi Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman began to court Trump, four months before his meeting in the White House was described as a turning point in relations between the two countries, seven months before Trump was received by the Saudi royal family with pomp, parades, horses and dancing princes. It’s tempting to say that Trump was welcomed as if he was Lawrence of Arabia, were it not for the fact that Lawrence disliked King Saud and said his rule would introduce extremist Wahhabist Islam to the Arabian peninsula. This is the same Islam that Trump said hates America, and therefore requires a travel ban to protect it.

U.S. President Barack Obama's administration has offered Saudi Arabia more than $115 billion in weapons, other military equipment and training, the most of any U.S. administration in the 71-year U.S.-Saudi alliance, a report seen by Reuters has found.

The report, authored by William Hartung of the U.S.-based Center for International Policy, said the offers were made in 42 separate deals, and the majority of the equipment has yet to be delivered. Hartung told Reuters the report would be made available publicly on Sept. 8.

The report said U.S. arms offers to Saudi Arabia since Obama took office in January 2009 have included everything from small arms and ammunition to tanks, attack helicopters, air-to-ground missiles, missile defense ships, and warships. Washington also provides maintenance and training to Saudi security forces.

Let's not pretend Saudi Arabia gets a pass because we shouldn't convict an entire country because of the actions of a few. That is blatant bullshit. The saudis have funded the Taliban, Hamas and many other terrorist groups. They get a pass because they buy our politicians.

Obama administration arms sales offers to Saudi top $115 billion: report

So since Trump is doing the exact same thing, you admit that Obama as right all along? Or do you think Trump is screwed up, just like you accused Obama of being? It has to be one or the other. Make up your mind or STFU

I simply point out the weapons-grade hypocrisy. My views on weapons sales and indeed military intervention in any form abroad does not align with any US government since Roosevelt.

OK, Nice side step, but that doesn't answer the question. Are Trump and Obama equal on this issue or not? Like I said, it has to be one or the other.

It's not too much to ask what they really believe. If they are going to whine and complain so much, they have to at least make their positions clear.

Not equal in terms of criticism ... that for which you decry Trump you praise (or ignore) Obama.

I decry Trump's hypocrisy. I honestly don't know enough to give a supported opinion either way, but I do know that Trump and his supporters can't complain so strongly about what Obama did and support Trump's actions which are identical. At least not ethically.

Actually, I was responding to an fncceo post, but it is an open question for any Trump supporter.
 
Let's not pretend Saudi Arabia gets a pass because we shouldn't convict an entire country because of the actions of a few. That is blatant bullshit. The saudis have funded the Taliban, Hamas and many other terrorist groups. They get a pass because they buy our politicians.

In the end, money talks
