Does anyone have any idea where Saudi Arabia’s money is?
Hint, it’s not sitting in Saudi Banks. It’s invested around the world, a massive portion of it in the West.
So folks, who gets harmed when the West’s economic system gets screwed up as it did in 2008?
Saudi Arabia is not our enemy. The sect of Islam there is rabidly anti-US. It’s going to remain so. We damn well better be happy ISIS isn’t in control there. We damn well better be happy the Saudi Royal Family is willing to walk a tight rope for the West.
If Saudi Arabia is voicing this concern, it’s for good reason.
Our fates are tied more closely than people know. The other more modern Arab states are as well. Think of the investment opportunities in the region. Think of the investment opportunities in the West.
They need us. We need some of their oil.
Saudi Arabia went to bat for us a number of times in the oil cartel meetings when we were heavily dependent on Middle-East oil. Other nations wanted to triple the cost of oil. The Saudis argued for moderation. It reasoned harming the West would hurt if’s finances too.
It’s just laughable how fixated on Saudi Arabia people are. They have had business dealings with the West for a long time.
When the leadership of Saudi Arabia is no longer moderate, some folks are going to get a real shock. Then they’ll wish they had the Saudi Royal Family to deal with again.
Fuck the Saudis. We should nuke Mecca, wipe the “Royal Family” out to the last infant, expropriate their assets, and auction off the oil fields to the highest legitimate bidder.
If any of the goat humping, child raping, clitorectomy performing savages so much as clear their throat we should cover whatever rat hole they crawled out of with our last stocks of sarin gas.
The Saudis paid for this. They can reap the whirlwind.
islam is a cancer. And the Saudi strain is the most pernicious.
If all that's standing between us and another Iran is a few hundred family members, I think it's safe to assume they're not trustworthy as a nation in general. Even the ruling faction is duplicitous at best.
