Scott Bennett, former US army psychological warfare officer, believes the United States will be complicit in Saudi Arabia’s war crimes in Yemen if it continues its arms sales to the kingdom.

“I think everyone, who has a heart, who has any sort of a compassionate spirit, understands now that Saudi Arabia has been launching a genocide against the Yemeni people and it has been undergoing an absolutely bloodthirsty, ruthless campaign of destruction, and there is absolutely no redeeming quality, there is no classical battle justifications for these actions by Saudi Arabia,” Bennett told Press TV in an interview on Monday.

“Anyone with a brain would see that the United States would be complicit in such a war crime if it continues the aiding and abetting of such activity and the congressmen certainly are smart enough to wake up to this reality,” he added.
