No, it is obviously a thread about Saudi military involvement in Yemen. I'm sympathetic to the view that the US should not be militarily supplying Saudi Arabia, but it isn't true that the US committed the act TS is outraged by.
Interesting how you emphasize where the bomb was purchased versus who dropped it where. This title should actually be, “using 44 dead children as props for my fraudulent, bitch ass argument”.Bomb that killed 40 children in Yemen was supplied by the US
(CNN)The bomb used by the Saudi-led coalition in a devastating attack on a school bus in Yemen was sold as part of a US State Department-sanctioned arms deal with Saudi Arabia, munitions experts told CNN.
Working with local Yemeni journalists and munitions experts, CNN has established that the weapon that left dozens of children dead on August 9 was a 500-pound (227 kilogram) laser-guided MK 82 bomb made by Lockheed Martin, one of the top US defense contractors.
The bomb is very similar to the one that wreaked devastation in an attack on a funeral hall in Yemen in October 2016 in which 155 people were killed and hundreds more wounded. The Saudi coalition blamed "incorrect information" for that strike, admitted it was a mistake and took responsibility.

There are many causes worth fighting and dying for. Not sure what cause is worth killing children for.
I certainly know that we shouldn't be selling bombs to the people who attacked us on 9-11 to murder the children of dirt farmers in Yemen in a proxy sunni-shiite war.
For every war room conservative that supports banning abortion because it is immoral, where are you at on dropping bombs on children?
For every war room liberal who screams Donald Trump's decorum is un-presidential, isn't killing children with bombs un-presidential, or at the very least un-American?
This is why the media and political parties are failing. They are all so completely full of shit, you have to be an idiot to buy what either side is selling.
Big government, trannies, Russia, and big business are coming to get you. Pay no attention to the dead children littering the road way as you rage to the voting booth, to vote against the bad guys in the mid-terms.

Yea, and you don’t take out terrorist insurance right before a terrorist attack on a building full of asbestos
Again, is Ford charged with DUI ever?
Identity politics is stupid and makes it so people can't even think. When you talk to folks one on one, I've noticed they're not as crazy as they are on the internet.
Right, crazy hypocrisy, fake left, fake right and it all ends up in death and suffering while we sit here and try to figure out which bathrooms and which pronouns to use.
We don't need their oil and fracking bad and the banks have the oil whenever they want because ultimately, it is they who control the bombs.
Nothing to see here, move along.
Is the us charged with any crimes in Mexico after fast and furious?Why switch product line? Let's stick with weapons. Part of Clinton's anti-gun stumping a couple years ago was how the legislative protection enacted on behalf of firearms manufacturers should be removed. Nobody was shouting her down on it. Pretty sure that Moms group lapped it up. Sure, the legislation remains. But let's not confuse the law with ethics. Sorry if I muddied the waters with referencing a legal term. Clearly there's no law preventing the US government from doing whatever the fuck it wants. Certainly not one its gonna be held accountable for.
You can’t have double standardsI doubt they even noticed amongst the rest of the kidnappings and bloodshed.
