Nearly 3/4 Of The World's Dictators Receive US Weapons & Military Assistance

Antiwar.com: Nearly 3/4 of the World’s Dictators Receive US Weapons and Military Assistance 

The US supports nearly 75% of the world’s dictators, autocracies, monarchies, military regimes, etc., with weapons, military training and money. Please remember this the next time someone tells you the US should do X or Y because such and such a nation is bad… 

Comparing Freedom House’s list of Not Free nations* to FY 2020 US overseas weapons sales, military training and financial assistance**, we find that of the 57 nations considered undemocratic, 42 receive weapons, training and/or money for their military and security services. This means 74% of the non-democratic nations of the world are supported militarily by the US. Interestingly, the remaining 15 nations are nearly all sanctioned. The world’s countries can be divided into two parts: those who buy/receive weapons from the US and those sanctioned. It seems like it’s a pretty simple arrangement.

Anti-War people should join the Uighurs.

3/4ths of the world's unfree countries also get their weapons form China and Russia.

Saudi Arabia which is on their list gets weapons form the US and China. Remember the US diplomats yanked their wank because the Saudis bought nuclear capable ballistic missiles from China.

The world gets nearly 100% of the precision metals for their precious batteries for EVs from an unfree country. Funny but the shitbags do not complain about that.
