Probably one of the most disgraceful things this man has done in his time.


Guy is a puppet for Saudi, reminds me of when George Bush bent down and got the pat on the head by the King

People really need to think what this really means.

you realize this gives saudi arabia and other countries precedent to sue us for crimes as well? This bill might end up killing the immunity that we have had for all the drone strikes/bad war decisions or basically any innocent killed by our government. It will possibly enable other countries to sue people serving in our military for any combat casualty or mistake holding them, and possibly their families financially accountable. Its a fucking bad idea.

If anything, he was trying to protect america from its own mistakes.

Now american politicians will have an open rat hole to give funds to other countries that may end up being used to buy weapons or further nuclear armament.

The only reason politicians passed this bill is because its called the 9/11 bill and it has a basic enough description to piss people off if you vote against it. They fear all the fucking idiots who only read the title and not the fine print.

The good thing is they really watered down the bill so it will be pretty hard to appropriate funds from other countries even if the suit is successful.
