So many will never get it, that so subtle fact that we are managing the Mid East so as to keep the Saudi Oil from coming under unfriendly control. It is not a bad thing, just the reality. And in the meantime we get to kill thousands of rat islamofascists on Mid East soil rather than on American soil. If it ever actually gets unmanagable we can turna few Arab cities into glass covered parking lots. But the democrats are creating just enough obstruction so that the option of what to do when it gets unmanable is fast being lost. The democrats are more of a threat to this nation than the Islamofascists.
That's been pretty much explicit for more than six decades. When FDR met with King Abdul Aziz Ibn-Saud, on a US warship in the Suez canal, the understanding was that the US would promise to back the House of Saud if the Saudis promised to maintain the flow of oil.
At the time, it was a hedge against Hitler, then it was a hedge against the USSR. But today, you've got to look at the Saudis and ask, "with friends like these ..."
The democrats are more of a threat to this nation than the Islamofascists.
Really? How many planes have Democrats flown into skyscrapers? How many Democrats have strapped on suicide bomb belts and boarded buses? How many armed militants does the Democratic Party have?
Sorry to pounce on you with this, but it's been a gripe of mine for a long time. There is a difference, one we're missing, between an opponent and an enemy. It was not an army of Democrats or of Republicans that defeated Hitler.
