Saudi Arabia has a fairly decent intelligence service and a really well-equipped armed force, which doesn’t seem to mean much in the Arab world. The government has bent over backwards to accommodate the 18th Century version of Wahhabism, which dominates Sunni Islam in the peninsula. Not working anymore. Time to get mean, really mean.
And I mean them, not us. Not our problem.

The government needs to release the 28 redacted pages of the 911 report. That’ll put the Saudi’s in perspective since they financed 911. According to leaks from insiders, the 28 pages prove they did it. Which means we should have bombed them back to the stone age, not Iraq. The question will be, if all this time our “leaders” knew this, aren’t they traitors for continuing the charade as if they were our ally.
STM a lot of people need to be indicted for treason.

Some of us would not shed many tears if the various factions in the middle east were successful in killing off all of their enemies. There are probably many individually good people in various mideast countries, but there are no governments there worthy of any support from any decent person.

Mohammedans killing Mohammedans, one of my favorite things.
