Arms Sales to Other Clinton Foundation contributors

Arms deals:

Under Clinton’s leadership, the State Department approved $165 billion worth of commercial arms sales to 20 nations whose governments have given money to the Clinton Foundation

[snip]

The Clinton-led State Department also authorized $151 billion of separate Pentagon-brokered deals for 16 of the countries that donated to the Clinton Foundation.

[snip]

These extra sales were part of a broad increase in American military exports that accompanied Obama’s arrival in the White House. The 143 percent increase in U.S. arms sales to Clinton Foundation donors compares to an 80 percent increase in such sales to all countries over the same time period.

American defense contractors also donated to the Clinton Foundation while Hillary Clinton was secretary of state and in some cases made personal payments to Bill Clinton for speaking engagements.

[snip]

The State Department formally approved these arms sales even as many of the deals enhanced the military power of countries ruled by authoritarian regimes whose human rights abuses had been criticized by the department. Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar all donated to the Clinton Foundation and also gained State Department clearance to buy caches of American-made weapons even as the department singled them out for a range of alleged ills, from corruption to restrictions on civil liberties to violent crackdowns against political opponents.

....and than another 16 countries hit her for yet another 151 billion in arms also legitimized by her state dept.
So when you see the mid east a powder keg with a terrorist on every corner you don’t have to wonder where the weapons came from.

Thanks Rod for exposing this part of the pay for play scheme.

To me Benghazi was the “ outlet” for some of this also. The movie 13 hours painted a brief picture of an arms bazaar outside the embassy , and I think the director felt that’s as far as he wanted to go with that storyline....
