Is Tillerson's Decision On Child Soldiers Yet More Evidence Of Trump's White Supremacist Inclinations?

 DOES REX TILLERSON SUPPORT USING CHILD SOLDIERS? SECRETARY OF STATE ACCUSED OF VIOLATING FEDERAL LAW
Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has been accused by about a dozen members of his department of breaching a federal law aimed at preventing foreign militaries from enlisting child soldiers. The bizarre move by government employees highlights the apparent disarray Tillerson has brought to the department, and is emblematic of the tensions the former Exxon Mobil CEO has faced when dealing with more experienced diplomats under his direction.

Tillerson allegedly violated the Child Soldiers Prevention Act (CSPA) in June, when he decided to exclude Iraq, Myanmar and Afghanistan from a U.S. list of offenders regarding the use of child soldiers, according to a confidential “dissent” memo from July 28 obtained by Reuters...

Documents show that Tillerson’s decision contradicted recommendations from the heads of the State Department’s regional bureaus overseeing embassies in the Middle East and Asia, the U.S. envoy on Afghanistan and Pakistan, the department’s human rights office and its own in-house lawyers, Reuters reported.

Tillerson used to work at Exxon. He hasn't got a nickel's worth of brain cells in this foreign policy dime...unless there's oil in one of these countries that I don't know about.  

If his decision didn't come from reports inside his own department, then some kind of influence came from outside his own department.

Sooo...

Could it be that Tillerson decided 
we should line up with 
countries like Myanmar, a country
**that is an ethnic cleansing machine right now** 
because his boss, the t-RUMP,
only cares about political and financial advantage
over China in this particular situation

and the children in question 
are not-white?

What out for a "those people" are different comment in the future if the White House defends this at all. "Different cultures do things differently" is a coded "those people" put down too.  Nationalistic white supremacists are fairly predictable. And that's who is running the country now.
