Many always slam RT news for being pro-Russia (which they are) - yet do not ever consider whether our corporate media (CNN) is pro-America - or more accurately - pro-corporate/oligarch.
What's most important is to actually filter through the noise to find the kernel of truth/factual information. Here, what's important is the fact that yes - Clinton (and other within our foreign policy establishment) have known that Saudi Arabia funds ISIS with weapons/money - and they know that Saudi Arabia exports its extremist ideology to madrasas and institutions across the muslim world. Further, they also know that Saudi Arabia govt. officials and powered interests supported and funded 9/11. Despite this - we continue to approve weapons deals and remain silent to Saudi atrocities (while demonizing other countries where our "interests" are not shared).
This should be a big issue - because it is. Veiled special interests have dominated our foreign policy for far too long - and the cynical response which says "well we need oil -- that's just the way it is!' is handicapping us from progress - both on the renewable energy front and in challenging the foreign policy establishment which in my estimation poses the greatest risk to our prosperity and security.
