Elise Jordan: ‘We’re Complicit’ in the Starvation of 8 Million in Yemen ‘Because of Our Immoral Foreign Policy’

‘This is another reality show episode completely detached from reality’

EXCERPT:

RUHLE: "OK, then let’s go back to September 11th, because from the beginning the country where the most 9/11 hijackers came from --"
SCHMIDT: "Saudi Arabia."
RUHLE: "-- was Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia, follow the money, is not on the list, but if you remember it was one of president Trump and his sword dances favorite trips this past year."
JORDAN: "Well, and this is -- Saudi Arabia is supposedly the linchpin of our strategy to bring peace to the Middle East. And I feel like that has been — you know, you can’t tell where the national interest is for the Trump administration, and the financial interest of the Trump family, and the Kushner family and it’s incredibly disturbing. Another addition on that list that really is disturbing is Yemen. Right now about 8 million people are on the verge of starvation, 8 million people, because of our immoral foreign policy in cahoots with Saudi Arabia and Yemen. We’re complicit in that and this is only furthering to death and devastation."
