From The Hill:

“This was stunning cowardice by the Obama administration, which at the last minute did an about-face and scuttled progress toward a global arms treaty, just as it reached the finish line,” said Suzanne Nossel, the executive director of Amnesty International USA. “It’s a staggering abdication of leadership by the world’s largest exporter of conventional weapons to pull the plug on the talks just as they were nearing an historic breakthrough that would have required all nations to deny arms export licenses where there was an overriding risk that the weapons would be used to facilitate serious crimes against humanity.”

This is one of those rare instances where I am in complete agreement with AmNasty International, but for different reasons.
DAMN YOU, BARRY!

  1. Wish we could “pull the plug” on that organization in the big building at 1st and E. 42nd in New York City. It has facilitated serious crimes against humanity since about 1946.
