From what we read, it seems that Saudi Arabia is behind ISIS and terrorism in the Mideast. I'd think that it's significant that the Yemenis are able to do damage within Saudi Arabia while Saudi's ISIS mercenaries are being thwarted by Russia's coalition in Iraq, Iran, and Syria.

The Saudi princes have created a global economic crisis with their manipulations of oil prices. They crucify and behead those who disobey their nutty laws. They're the home of the 911 maniacs, and the homeland of BinLaden. Why are they our ally?

Never mind what you read. All that you need to remember is;

Saudi = Sunni
Iran = Shite

This has been going on for over a thousand years. Sunni belief is domination by the sword. Shite belief is domination led my the Magic 12th Imam who has been hiding in the dry well in Isfahan for centuries. Both are competing against each other dominance of the Caliphate.

They’re not “Yemenis” they are just the Houthi Shiite minority of Yemenis who overthrew Yemen with the help of Iran.
Second, this is wishful thinking from Iran, whose new ships all have glass bottoms so they can see what’s left of their old ones that we sank in the 80s.

Saudi bloody Arabia was behind the 9-11 WTC attack that killed 3000 Americans!

All but one of the hijackers were Saudis.

And they weren’t poor goat herders looking for jobs.

They were professionals and students here in the States on HB-1 and student visas.

[Saudi Arabia is] the home of the 911 maniacs, and the homeland of BinLaden.

Um, no, the Bin Laden family are Yemeni (at least the old man was), and unlike the Saudi princes who received their wealth from oil and the liberality of the King, old man Bin Laden made his through construction contracts, most notably for renovation of the Grand Mosque in Mecca.

Swinging hammers, not royalty money, made Bin Laden rich.

The Saudis control the oil markets and the US aids them. This is why gas is cheaper in the US than any other country outside of oil producing ones.
