Saudi Arabia VS Canada human rights activists

[The Derpy Democratic Republic Of Herp]

No, i've been appalled at the Saudis for a while now.

Just that that image is just horrible.

If they did that, I'd go straight to my army office and get enlisted.

No use too, only way a war would actually break out is if they actually went though with, or something else to piss US off enough.

Yeah, thats what I said, If they did that would mean if they went though with killing thousands people.

[United Muscovite Nations]

They apologized for the image.

I don't think I'll forgive them. Threatening to kill thousands of people is horrible.

My step sister lives in Toronto. I'm from the GTA. If those Saudi fucktards think that they can get off with a 'sorry' like they gave me a medium instead of a large at the drive thru in tim hortons they can think again.

Nah. Trudeau finalized a deal which he could've stopped, and then thoroughly defended that finalization, so the blame ought to rest on him.

That was one percent of the deal while Harper did the other 99%.

Might as well round that up.

He still finalized the deal, which means he approved of the deal.

[Thanatttynia]

Trudeau gave it to the go ahead; as a good neoliberal he has no problem with arming repressive regimes with no respect for human rights to use in unjust conflicts as long as there's money coming his way.

Don't worry, funding the beheadings of homosexuals is a-okay because it actually pays for Economic Freedom^TM.

Yes, in wearing rainbow socks with 'Eid Mubarak' written on them to a pride march he solved both homophobia and islamophobia and simultaneously brought peace to the Middle East in one daring fashion choice !!

Trudeau gave it to the go ahead; as a good neoliberal he has no problem with arming repressive regimes with no respect for human rights to use in unjust conflicts as long as there's money coming his way.

Being buddies with despots has nothing to do with neoliberalism.

Claiming solidarity with progressive movements at the same time as callously selling those movements out for money is peak neoliberalism, however.

Trudeau gave it to the go ahead; as a good neoliberal he has no problem with arming repressive regimes with no respect for human rights to use in unjust conflicts as long as there's money coming his way.

Or maybe he just wanted to stay consistent with the previous government.

The deal was almost done by the time he got in might as well do it and then not do any future deals.

That deal was 99% done by Harper, so Harper should get the blame.

Considering the arms were probably used to kill innocent people in an unjust and unfair conflict I think there's more than enough blame to go around for the both of them

[Sovaal]

Yeah, thats what I said, If they did that would mean if they went though with killing thousands people.

Ah, okay. Realistically, it be near suicidal for them to go through with such an action.

Well that 1% was mighty sure more important than that 99% seeing as it was what finalized the deal, which he could've stopped.

As he didn't stop its finalization, the blame rests solely on him.

To be clear, the Sa'oodi gov didn't make that image. It was a Saudi youth org that did it, took it down, and apologized.

He still finalized the deal, which means he approved of the deal.

Harper set up, started talks, finalized talks, and did all of the leg work for the deal.

All Trudeau did was say yes to the deal that was already done by Harper.

Yeah, thats what I said, If they did that would mean if they went though with killing thousands people.

Ah, okay. Realistically, it be near suicidal for them to go through with such an action.

It would be suicidal, and I would love to be part of the suicide of those misogynistic, gay killing, human rights abuseing assholes.

He said yes when he wasn't forced to say yes. Hence, it's his fault the deal went through.

Doesn't make it any better. Death threats are death threats.

And in doing so, he is complicit in the killing of Yemeni children ( :

Ik. But it's still a different deal with a group saying something vs the gov saying something.

Id rather not have a bunch of Canuck civilians die to have it happen however. Oh well, realpolitik at work I guess.

[Happsborough]

This is absurd. The Saudis have proven time and time again that they are nothing but terrorist sympathizers who fund terrorists, threaten westerners and western nations, and oppress their people.

However they have oil, so nothing will be done.

At the risk of sounding like a whataboutist, the West does this as well.

1. Yes this is whataboutism.
2. What terrorists do we sponsor?
3. Interesting that you try to compare a specific nation with a broad cultural/geo-political group, makes it easier for ya huh?

I'd also rather not have that happen. Just saying if it did by Easter we would have a brand new democracy in the middle east.

Why be inconsistent and rude?

Harpers started it, it is Harpers mess.

Doesn't make it any better. Death threats are death threats.

Ik. But it's still a different deal with a group saying something vs the gov saying something.

That group is also interested in politics and represents a part of the Saudi's.

[United States of Devonta]

Maybe this is a good thing.

It will hopefully encourage the United States and other nations to cut ties with Saudi Arabia. No dictatorship should get aid, let alone one who is overseeing one of the worst cases of starvation in the regions history (i.e Yemen).

This is some Nuremberg-defense levels of denial for Trudeau's complicity in this mess.

[Avidius Legion]

I've never thought I say that but Saudis finally did the right thing. Ambassador of any country doesn't have the right to speak like that even if he/she is right.

Amen. Saudis are asshole but at least they did the right thing here, that foreign countries have no right to interfere with how other country run themselves and especially diplomats that main responsibility is to keep friendly relation to say such things. They also send important message that western countries can't just act all they want without repercussion.

Why shouldn't foreign countries stand up for human rights?

Put it this way:

If you have two cats and one cat makes a massive mess while the other only adds a bit of mess, what cat do you blame more?

The cat who did most of the mess or the other cat who only contributed a tiny bit of mess?

Your analogy is misrepresentative of what happened. It's more like if the first cat moved a vase to the very edge of a table, but didn't knock it over, and the second one did knock it over. You can't blame the first one for the second one actually committing to the fuckup.

[Kubumba Tribe]

2. What terrorists do we sponsor?

I can only speak for the US (so I probs shouldn't've said "the West". The US used to support the Syrian rebels, most of whom were terrorists, for example.
