The Saudis, and their al-Qaeda proxies, are in trouble in Syria. It's costing the Saudis money that they need to maintain their high-end domestic welfare state

From the perspective of the US's real interests (as opposed to Obama's and State's), letting the radicals kill each other far away from us, is a Good Thing.

Now we need to promote the use of natural gas in this country as a transportation fuel. It would be nice if we could eliminate the need to import 10 to 12% of the worlds oil. Once oil prices drop, Iran for one would need to pump and sell more oil to maintain their domestic programs. More oil on the world market should lead to much lower prices.

I believe this is propaganda. The Saudis are worried about nothing.

correct. Let the Saudis and Iranis fight each other. We should only protect the Christians in Syria (10 to 15% of the population)

AQ is not a proxie for Saudi Arabia. AQ is a Saudi enemy. Usama fled Saudi Arabia because he was not wanted

Saudis fear tide of Syria war turning against their interests.

Translation: Saudis want the US to protect their interests.

I’ve said for decades that the corrupt, crookedass, Soddies are going to get their throats cut eventually. That’s what Osama wanted and the pendulum is still swinging.
