Saudis making sure the world doesn't forget that the Biden administration continues to supply them with arms while the Yemen war also continues. The Houthis got some Emirate fuel tanks and three non-combatants on Monday, the Saudis got a Houthi detention center (70 non-combatants) and three children playing soccer on Friday. So it goes.

'Biden faces criticism over failed promise to end Yemen war after Saudi-led airstrikes kills dozens, including children'

Last February, President Joe Biden declared that the war in Yemen "has to end." He added that the US would cease support for offensive operations in the war, including "relevant arms sales." A year later, US arms sales to Saudi Arabia have continued and critics accuse Biden of abandoning his pledge to help end the war.

Saudi-led coalition airstrikes in Yemen on Friday killed dozens, including children, according to aid groups, renewing criticism of Biden over US involvement. Doctors Without Borders (MSF) said a strike that hit a detention center in Saada killed at least 70, and Save the Children said a separate strike in the port town of Hodeida killed three children who were playing soccer.

"This is horrific news, further devastating Yemen. It's also a predictable consequence of continuing to arm Saudi Arabia," the Congressional Progressive Caucus tweeted. "The Biden administration must stop unauthorized participation in the Saudi war and bring its bombings and blockade to an end — as Congress has demanded."

"The Biden admin has condemned the Houthi actions roughly 13 times since taking office. Not one condemnation of Saudi bombings of Yemen though. Will it also not condemn this attack?" Trita Parsi, the executive vice president of the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft, said in a tweet.

According to Mehdi Hasan on MSNBC, the US State Department officially had 'no comment' on this latest Saudi action.

Glenn Greenwald is having the vapors over Biden getting caught on a hot mike calling a stupid sonofabitch reporter a stupid sonofabitch. I don't recall Greenwald getting upset when Trump repeatedly called the press the 'Enemy of the People.'

Nor will Trump ever apologize for his sustained overt smearing of the 'horrible people' of the 4th estate. But Greenwald is going to Greenwald.

He's become a great disappointment.

I presume you mean Biden? I agree to an extent, although the recalcitrants in his own party, a resurgent virus and external forces of various kinds have not made it easy for him. But you get a sense that he is tired, resigned to failure and just going through the motions...

He's just like a....politician! Making all those promises.

No, I meant Greenwald.

[L'Emmerdeur]

Hadn't paid much attention to him until he started on a path of on and off mavericky concern trolling and pro-Trump yapping, and I still don't, really. The Intercept has done some good work, but Greenwald himself has always seemed a bit off to me.
