An act of terrorism.

Perpetrated by an officer of the Saudi military.

The Saudis choose the officers who go to that flight school, and how was that officer connected to the Royal Family

1. "...and your enemies closer?"

2. Rump works for the Saudi's and Russians, he just participated in killing American's

on our soil.

3. Donnie Donnie,with

friends like the House of Saud,our nation is full up with enemies. We include you in that count.

4. I just got an alert on my phone that another Saudi filmed the attack. nt

5. drumpf won't be happy about that... hope whoever made that call isn't too attached to their job

6. IIRC, at one time , ONLY royals were allowed to fly fighters ...

this is probably no longer true, but the royal family does like to keep strong connections to the military -- and the higher the rank, the closer the ties.

22. There are many non-royal pilots in the RSAF.

However, KSA military is very selective about which tribes are admitted for service. This ensures that the appropriate loyalty is maintained.

7. Obviously, we must invade Iran after this attack.

using neo-con logic.

9. Hahaha. Almost missed it.

14. Exactly my thought when I heard the news.

Glad it wasn't just me!

[H2O Man]

15. Valid point.

We must keep our nation safe. Bring back Dick Cheney.

[lunatica]

16. Obviously, or at least one of the Stan countries.

20. Just like we had to invade Iraq and Afghanistan because of the Saudi hijackers on 9/11

No matter how much oil the US produces now, the important thing is to keep selling warplanes and weapons to the Saudis.

21. And the lives a few U.S. airmen is included in the cost of doing business

..... .....

[not fooled]

8. Can you imagine

if President Obama had blatantly cosied up to the Saudi royal family, then this happened? pukes would have impeached yesterday.

I know this scenario has played out over and over under this monster, i.e. "If Obama had done x, how soon until pukes did y" to counteract, whereas red don gets a complete pass, but this shooting is a particularly egregious and clear example of the rank hypocrisy of the present-day GOPee.

13. Question: will our Dem leaders do what's necessary

...to put all these rethugians lawbreakers behind bars?
And will that not "tear the country apart"?
But is it not necessary to fix this huge problem?

[Kaleva]

10. Freepers are blaming Obama, House Dems, the Deep State and liberals in general for this.

[IronLionZion]

11. It's terrorism from a foreign government soldier shooting American soldiers

but while racists insist on a travel ban for Muslims and anyone who might look vaguely brown, Trump will keep on selling military jets to the kingdom where the 9/11 hijackers came from, along with the necessary training for their pilots to fly them. And of course keep racially profiling and harassing unarmed brown people at airports since that seems very important to people who are not brown.

19. Can't hit the +1 keys hard enough. nt

[Mr.Bill]

12. We've given a terrorist access to our military base(s)

I'm sure he's the only one, though. Right? Riiiiggggtt.

[Generic Other]

17. Saudis demand to dismember FBI agents

Trump volunteers to send some.

[gibraltar72]

18. But Trump danced with them.
