Right you are asialmamsir

Russia annexing Crimea, Israel keeping colonizing Palestine, Saudi killing Kashogi no problem.... You kill Yemenite kids by millions for 4 years they react with a drone attack killing no one and you go to war with Iran ? lol

Why wouldn't Saudi Arabia go to war...think realDonaldTrump is trying for a Bush War stategy for a grand diversion to his recession coming around the corner...

Trump wants to provoke the situation until war becomes the only solution.

I hate to even see Donald Trump's name anywhere near the distinguished, Admiral McRaven. We used to think about honorable, extraordinary people like McCraven when we considered choosing a POTUS.

Who the hell is Trump answering to? The American people, or Saudi Arabia? or Russia.....

Agreed diplomatic solution is the adult way to handle it. If this had been handled better in the 1920's, this wouldn't be an issue now.
