Freedom House doesn't label places as "dictatorships." So this is suspect right off the bat. They use a "freedom index."
No doubt the figure from 2015 includes significant support and training to Afghanistan, labeled with a score of 6 out of 100. Does that count as supporting a dictatorship? No.
If we sell weapons to the Saudis to fight Iranian creep, is that supporting dictatorship? Maybe a little. No question of Iran and Saudi, Iran is a much less free and much worse dictatorship. Sometimes that's just how progress looks.
This "fact check" is at best highly misleading, bordering on false.
There are tons of other sources where you can know the US is a big sponsor of dictatorships.
Anyone that has been on this planet for a few decades would know that from his own experience and lifetime.
Afghanistan is a great example of the US bringing 'democracy'.
Create and massively fund parties, have 'free' elections and see the Taliban win.
OC they had to do it over until theur puppet won.
When he finally grew a consciense and became too vocal about the US and their mass murdering he was replaced by another even more obvious puppet, Ghani. Who has been a US citizen for most of his life, was made to wear traditional clothes and grow a beard. (even then he was hated and it took a lot of shennanigans to get him 'elected'.
He also fled in the middle of the night (like the US cowards) and stole more than $160 million from the empoverished country.
Wich is nothing compared to the US regime that stole billions from them out of spite.No headchopping Saudi has ever fought Iran.
They used their US weapons to invade Yemen and terrorise their great and brave people, with Iran the only ones to help the Palestinians.
Iran is in no way comparable to that awful SA.
BTW didn't the US say they where going to make them a pariah state?
That went out of the window when they could do the biggest arms deal in history of 350 billion right?
And still lost the war against the Houthis😂To summarise, you're full of shit.
Try reading my post again. To summarize, you're a child and live world that you're too simple to understand. Someday perhaps you will grow up.
I used facts to show every aspect of your comment was complete BS.
You have nothing to offer in reply and your feeble answer is "you are a child". Impressive. US regime bootlickers can never admit they are wrong and can't offer facts since reality poroves them wrong.
Anyway, you've been dealt with for everyone to see.
Bye now.
Iran is fighting Israel. They are the best country in the Middle East.
Fun to see Democrats simping for Saudi to placate Israel now.
What a simplistic worldview
It's called a "lesser evil". Are you not a huge fan of it?
lesser target of Israel.
LOL look at the downvotes.
americans truely are cluelessIf you can't make an argument without a political scape goat being attached to it, then it's a bad argument.
Trumps son took 2 billion from the Saudis against the financial advice and suggestions of every expert they hired. It was, by all accounts, the largest in plain sight bribe ever witnessed.
Your argument is only a Dem problem if you cherry pick their name to attach to it.
Yes Fox News went on a hardline propaganda tour to whitewash the Saudi government a few years ago. Democrats coming around to it is what is surprising.
Does every negative comment about Democrats need a caviat also condemning Republicans to be valid?
Your comment was about how bad it is to cater to the Saudis.
Shitting on Dems isn't needed to make that point. At all.
Unless your point was actually about shitting on Dems in the first place, and using the Saudis as an excuse.
Which is the point I was making, and now you are too:
Does every negative comment about Democrats need a caviat also condemning Republicans to be valid?
You can shit on the Saudis without shitting on a political party.
Instead, you're just using "Saudis bad" as an excuse to attack Dems.
How does that do anything to further your point about the Saudis being awful? Your point is lost, and you just sound like every other brainwashed American.
