France’s Armed Forces Minister Florence Parly issued a statement Thursday denying that any French weapons have at any time been used against civilians in the war in Yemen.
This is an important point because leaked intelligence showed that
French arms, including tanks, were being used in the Yemeni War by both
the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and have been used against civilians.
Parly’s argument that this was not the case appears not to be based on
anything beyond France not having any specific evidence that the arms
are being used in the way the intelligence shows.
This sort of conscious ignorance is the way a lot of foreign officials
justify arms sales to the Saudis given the humanitarian disaster the war
in Yemen has become, and the heavy arms purchases the Saudis continue
to make.
Snowflakes at the hight of their power. Who we bad? Impossible. We are just intolerant of intolerance as we define it, and violence and death does not exist unless committed by those we declare bad. We are the truth and light, ours is the only one that counts. And every Saturday, Macron can see Paris burning from his window, but only Notre Dame counts. Every week people are asking for his ouster, but he feels by the higher firce endowed to write European manifesto in the defence of corporate Europeanism.
Who we responsible for death in Yemen, Libya, Syria, all over Africa and across Pacific iselets we cannot count any more? Imposible!
