Explain the benefits of a Saudi government vs an Iranian one? I want to hear this logic.

The Saudis have invested enormous sums in American Businesses. They and the Kuwaitis invested very heavily in reversing our 1987 Market crash. They, unlike most of our other "allies," paid for our assistance against Socialist Iraq in reversing the invasion of Kuwait.

When prominent members of the Royal family have problems requiring surgery, they go to Ohio--in their cases, Cleveland--to have the work done.

One could go on, But if you cannot see the difference between the attitude of the House of Saud and that of the Iranian Mullahs, your head is too buried in the sand, trying to make an anti-Islamic statement, to recognize friend from foe. But the differences are massive.
