Profits from the Saudis are plenty good enough for Trudeau and London, Ontario voters...so plenty good enough for Trump. 1 Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Trudeau didn’t take unprecedented and action never before seen in Canada or probably elsewhere to cancel a multi-billion dollar arms deal that’s already well underway and approved by the previous government before he took office, which have resulted in decades of lawsuits and millions of dollars in legal fees .....you seriously think that’s the same as Trump doling out favours to foreign regimes who personally enrich him by frequenting his businesses? That’s fucking idiotic. Quote

No...it is far worse when your government pretends to cry tears over "human rights" and peace but continues to export the war machines anyway. 1 Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
Cannucklehead Posted November 2, 2020 Report Posted November 2, 2020 Lol lectures from a Reagan supporter. Thanks to Iran contra now we have to support the Saudis to fight off Iran. But yeah, you pubes know what you're doing. Quote

Not even close in comparison in size or how far along the contact had gone. Besides in that case we were the equipment purchaser, not the seller and we paid the cancellation fees specified in the contract. Totally different. Nice try though. 6 minutes ago, bush_cheney2004 said: No...it is far worse when your government pretends to cry tears over "human rights" and peace but continues to export the war machines anyway. That’s a typical day in America. Given Republicans since Reagan alone have a track record of selling chemical weapons to Saddam Hussein and all sorts of missiles and hardware to Iran, creating and/or funding the Taliban, Al Qaeda, numerous Latin American death squads and drug cartels that’s pretty fucking rich.

Sure there’s some here and there. We don’t make that much military hardware to begin with and most export contracts are relatively small but there’s usually a bit of our kit out there in some conflict or another. Again USA is number one in that regard and dwarfs anyone else in the world so I’m not sure what you’re complaining about. US remains the number one backer of the Saudis. At least we don’t sell to Saddam Hussein, the Taliban, Iran and drug Cartels like Republicans have done over and over again. I know you’re trying to make it seem like we’re no better than you - which is not the own you think it is - but yeah I can say categorically despite our many shortcomings and misdeeds Canada is morally superior to the US and for almost everyone but the richest 1%, life in Canada is way better than in the US Quote

You think it wants to share military power with France and Germany? It loves the fact that it’s almost impossible for NATO to do anything without US involvement. That’s by design. That’s part of the post-WW2 order. Trump just wants to empower Russia. Period. Quote
