Well the US supports another vile regime and its disgusting human rights practices and culture, namely Israel. The U.S. House of Representatives passed a measure that would codify into law a $38 billion aid package to Israel. Clearly the US is about many things but ethics and human rights are only fringe concerns, let’s not pretend that Saudi Arabia is their only shady ally.

> the US supports another vile regime and its disgusting human rights practices and culture It’s possible to come up with examples of this for every country, including the United States. That being said, this is whataboutism.

  Few countries have meddled in the affairs of other states like the US.

    That's true, but I'm not sure how to interpret your response into the context of mine.

Oh hello there, a nice example of anti-semitism. > let’s not pretend that Saudi Arabia is their only shady ally. Believe it or not, Israel is the only democracy in the area (aside from Kurdish Rojava but that one unfortunately isn't recognized as an independent state).

  Why is it stupid to say Israel is guilty of human rights abuses?
