Saudi Arabia has deployed thousands of troops from Egypt and Pakistan along its frontier with Iraq, amid fears of invasion by the al-Qaeda splinter group that has declared a radical Islamic state across the border.

Panicked by the advance of the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (Isis), Riyadh has taken the drastic step of calling in military assistance from its close allies to shore up the porous 500-mile border, Gulf security sources said.

Civil war among the Arab muslims is in full swing.
ISIS seems to hate everybody: Shia (of course), high-living Sunnis (of course), Christians (of course), Jews (without a doubt). The Saudis and the Qataris are shivering in their shoes, and the Iranians are going to have to go after ISIS very soon.....That is what the Iranian Bomb is for.

The Saudis will fight to the last Pakistani to maintain their border. Will the Pakistanis work as well as our security contractors in Benghazi?

Agreed. What scares me though through out Europe and Asian countries the visceral support ISIS has garnered from supposed moderates.

Telling. Just how bad is ISIS? Well, even the Saudis don’t want to have anything to do with them.

Saudis will never be able to defend their own country in spite of the modern weaponry they possess.

One wonders how much the Saudis can trust the armed Egyptians and Pakis within their borders. Saudi supports the Muslim Brotherhood but Egypt does not.

In the end, dumbass Christians will have to defend Saudi while getting nothing in return for dying and spilling their blood.

Now THAT is elitist cronyism.

“....support ISIS has garnered from supposed moderates.”

This phenomenon should teach the world that there are no moderate muzzies.

I’d pay to hire them if they’d wipe out ISIS. Better them than our troops.

The Saudi’s jihad chickens are, coming home to roost.

If you like high crude prices, just wait. Iran is the sole beneficiary of the surge of ISIS.

“Saudi supports the Muslim Brotherhood but Egypt does not.”

That will be news to the Brotherhood in Egypt since King Abdullah was 100% behind Sisi taken the reigns. The Saudi king just made a rare visit to Egypt to make his backing of Sisi and the Egyptian military understood by everybody.

Mohammed Morsi was a member of the MB and has been ousted. Present Egyptian government has many MB members sitting on death row.

Hope Iran is. After all Carter et al brought down the Shah for wanting to keep crude oil prices in check, among democracy jibes. Too bad. Hope Carter’s beneficiaries are pleased with their efforts, Saudis & Pakis too.

Know what? There is a theory ISIS was created by people like Obama. Like Al Qaeda was created earlier to wreak havoc. True or not is anyone’s guess. One can only observe & speculate. Future prescriptions aren’t too good. Because those type of creations sooner or later can be made to abuse globally, by those who helped to create & strengthen them.
