American bombs kill Yemenese children

Millions of children on Yemen are slowly dying of starvation and untreated cholera. Saudi planes carrying bombs made in America kill some of the survivors.

Sinking to a new level of heartlessness, our President says that the good news is that making these bombs creates American jobs. What a disgrace.

I am ashamed of American compliance in this particularly cruel and stupid war.
