It's kind of like the Syrian Civil War, there are no "good guys" in the fight.

The Saud Family and Israel find common cause. The US is on the sidelines.

Sidelines? you crazy? the US is in the process of GIVING IRAN NUCLEAR WEAPONS, in other words Obama is ADHERING TO OUR ENEMIES. We called this TREASON when I was a kid.

Listen to the Israelis in this case. The Saudi cause is the best for continuing peace, whatever that is.

Well, you wouldn’t expect them to fight it out in their
own yards. Don’t think they will be able to keep it there
though. I don’t think we will escape either.
It’s going to be a long war.

arguably and objectively this development of muslims fighting muslims on a large scale basis is the best news there has been in 50+ years for American interests.

The bastards love to fight and kill each other so let em have at it! Maybe those 5 killers Obama just freed will metriculate to the front lines and catch one between the eyes!

Still is TREASON along with the 100s of other potential cases. Problem is no one to bring them forward. Whoever takes the reign will have a difficult job bringing them forward but will be welcomed(?) and popular. We are due for a hero. A Winston Churchal, Ronald Reagan, or refeshingly new, gutless and accomplished person of principal and Pelosi and her shanigans about eligibility don’t cut it. She belongs in jail or on the gallows. Hell let Bill and Black Bart Stupak march them there with the speed they displayed on the Capitol steps during impeachment. Time is short!

I hear that a lot but what will everyone think if/when gas is 10-15 bucks a gallon? I’m not expressing “my” opinion, rather asking what thoughts are.

Ok. We've all seen the pics on here of 0bama apparently bowing to the Saudi king. And many posters here get all worked up about that.

But now it certainly appears that 0bama is favoring the Iranians at this time. And if he were a Shiite, he certainly wouldn't be bowing to the Saudi king, a Sunni.

What's it all mean? There are clues he favors each side.In the end, I want our service people safe and sound, and serving to protect Americans, and I hope they don't get drawn into all of this.

I’ll thank God for North Dakota. And demand the Keystone. Because if oil is going to rise it should be Americans and Canadians profiting from it. And if Persian Gulf oil is going to be disrupted, we’ll be very glad for every barrel of mideast oil displaced by Canadian and North Dakota oil.

Wouldn’t it be something if Obama signs off in this, Iran gets a nuke from NK and drops it inthe Saudis.

They will own the middle east and it would be Obama’s fault but Valjar’s prophecy.
