Trump’s UN envoy Haley ‘Powell’ lies on Saudi-Yemen war

This 21 December 2017 Dutch video is by Dutch daily De Volkskrant. It says that Nikki Haley, United States President Donald Trump‘s United Nations envoy, told ‘Colin Powell on Iraq weapons of mass destruction‘ style lies on the Saudi Arabian autocracy‘s war on Yemen. She claimed she had proof that a missile, fired from Yemen to Saudi Arabia, was supposedly from Iran; while she has no such proof.

A 16 December 2017 video from the USA used to say about itself:

WILL TRUMP LIE US INTO ANOTHER MIDDLE EAST WAR?

BREAKING NEWS : U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Nikki Haley presented journalists Thursday with what she called “indisputable” evidence that a missile fired last month at Saudi Arabia by Yemeni rebels was supplied by Iran, thus proving Iran was in violation of international law and a threat to the region. Her findings, however, have been disputed by former leading U.S. intelligence officials whose own conclusions were at odds with President Donald Trump’s administration.

On 11 December 2017 the US ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley, appeared with huge fragments of what she claimed was an Iranian missile that had missed its target. She maintained it had been fired from Yemen at a Saudi civil airport, ‘a G20 country’ and had ‘the potential to kill hundreds of innocent civilians in Saudi Arabia … Just imagine if this missile had been launched at Dulles Airport or JFK. Or the airport in Paris, London or Berlin.’ Never mind it could not have travelled that far. Once again, fear is being manufactured to justify war: 14 years after destroying Iraq, the US government has Iran in its sights: here.
