Will US Congress finally end Saudis’ holocaust of Yemen?

Press TV interview with Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor The United Nations is finally facing the facts: The Saudi war on Yemen is turning into a holocaust. But it is the US Congress that has the power to stop the war. Will Democrats and Republicans unite to deliver a slap in the face to Trump-Kushner and their Saudi partners in crime?

Why is our disproportionately Jewish MSM obsessed with “Nazi holocaust” not “Rohingya holocaust”?

US war on terror ‘worst war crime in human history’ (and other Press TV videos)

America’s so-called war on terror that began 17 years ago has killed millions of people, far greater than official estimates, amounting to a “holocaust” and one of the worst war crimes in human history, a US scholar says.

U.S. senators demand end to Saudi nuclear talks

“Elect me and you’ll find out who really did 9/11,” Trump promised on the campaign trail. He then broadly hinted that the Saudis were the real culprits. Today, Trump is trying to hand the Saudis a nuclear weapons program. Why is Trump OK with allowing the world’s two most recklessly irresponsible regimes—Likud Israel and Bin Salman’s House of Saud—to possess or develop nuclear weapons?
