Is this just a coincidence?

As secretary of state, Clinton approved the sales of weapons to Saudi Arabia. Just prior to her becoming secretary of state, Saudi Arabia had apparently donated $10+ million to the Clinton Foundation. And Boeing contributed $900,000 to the foundation 2 months before the deal was finalized.

According to the IBT article, Clinton’s state department approved $165 billion in arms sales to 20 countries who had donated to the Clinton Foundation. It’s also worth noting that many of these countries were accused by the state department of funding terrorism, and are authoritarian human rights abusers, such as “Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Oman and Qatar”.

And then there is Clinton’s history with her public opposition to and then support of a “free” trade agreement with Columbia. She ran in 2008 as a vocal opponent of the trade agreement. And as secretary of state, she publicly spoke out against human rights abuses in Columbia, while simultaneously developing ties with Frank Giustra, who is now on the board of the Clinton Foundation. Giustra was the financier who founded Pacific Rubiales. Apparently, after the oil company and Giustra provided millions of dollars to the Clinton Foundation, Clinton changed her position and supported it.

The two IBT articles are great examples of investigative journalism, but they contain a ton of information – none of it good for Clinton and the Clinton Foundation.

Could this all just be a coincidence?
