[QUOTE="tall73, post: 75895678, member: 125574"] I expect that we have a right to call out our government's wrong actions. Biden now stepped back from support in Yemen, which was the right thing to do, and should have happened sooner. So yes, inaction in this case is by far best. If you mean inaction in supporting the Saudis in war crimes, yes, that would be great. We should definitely not act. If you mean towards Russia, I said we should not trust them. I also said they have reason not to trust us. I didn't defend Russia's values. I simply pointed out we don't live up to our values. The person being bombed probably is not concerned whether the cluster munition was from a liberal democracy or an authoritarian. But in the case of Yemen, both were working together on the project. You may find it in full if you want to disagree with the New York Times. However, you might want to accurately read the quote first. The quote said the analyst Steven Hall retired in 2015. [COLOR=#006600][B]“If you ask an intelligence officer, did the Russians break the rules or do something bizarre, the answer is no, not at all,[/B]” said Steven L.
