The reason terrorists are targeting Paris is because America finances Saudi Arabia, author and former MSNBC host Dylan Ratigan argued Friday night while the attack was still underway.
Appearing on Real Time with Bill Maher, the host asked his panel “Why do they hate us?” Ratigan replied, “Because we finance the capital flow into Saudi Arabia that then arms the population that has power in Saudi Arabia to oppress the population that does not have the power in Saudi Arabia, which then is deprived of basic resources in Saudi Arabia, which is then radicalized inside the Muslim religion and then lashes out irrationally, violently, murderously against the innocent people who did nothing.”
“The United States’ lack of — we need to be accountable to our own government for our relationship with Saudi Arabia,” he continued.
Later in the panel, Bill Maher offered his own theory: ISIS is striking the West because America is bombing the terrorist group in Syria.
