This president granted the country of Saudi Arabia in the region the very special and unique privilege of attacking another country targeting a specific group in it, which it always target, merely for its own interest or preference without any justification. Does he realize how shameful such position is? Moreover, unlike the interference that the Saudi government did in Bahrain to suppress the demand for democracy by that same general group, which happened also during his administration, it appears that he is making us take the position of actively participating with the Saudis action there as demonstrated by our ships escorting the Iranian ones away from supporting the attacked group there. Everybody should be held to his own actions and the mere wish by the Saudis for the rebels there to be equated with ISIS does not by itself justify treating them as such.
This president also appears to have neglected or failed to explain and show how his stand there would fit the most important thing that sets nations like this apart from the like of the Saudi government when they go to change the government of other countries. That thing is to bring the justice of establishing a democratic system. Instead he is supporting the demand requiring those rebels to surrender and give control back to a force that has the face of the Saudi government which is far from being recognized as a trusted power for bringing democratic change and could have been part of the reason why those rebels had revolted to begin with. Regardless of how much those rebels seem to haven't yet made an established dictatorship and the degree with which their intentions are being pre judged, this president did not offer them an alternative path trusted in bringing a real democracy with basic protected rights at a level trusted in the action of a country like this when it seeks changing the regime.
