His statement just needs one clarification ... it’s not about the geography, it’s about the pathological cultures in that area.

Let’s see:

Saudi Arabia - a royal dictatoprship

The Gulf States - self-declared shiekdoms that rule no
differently than a dictatorship

Iraq - an endangered “democracy” caught between internal sectarian violence, Iran and the Saudis.

Iran - a theocratic dictatorshipa

Syria - a dysfunctional state run by a dictatorship with big foreign influence by Iran and Russia.

Turkey - a country whose leader has recently achieved enough power to rule for the rest of his life.

Egypt - a dictatorship for decades.

Israel - the one REAL democracy.

So yes, the Middle East is HONESTLY a nasty place.

I am still in the dark as to why the MSM and Lindsay Graham and Rand Paul are having a hissy fit over the murder of Khashoggi.

In that part of the world, that kind of thing takes place daily.

There is not a thing the United States can do to change the behavior of the people in that part of the world.

And the righteous souls of the Turks are mortified by the murder? Really?

I tried to post this but FR says it should be posted to bloggers if at all, so I skipped it. It’s still interesting though.

He is right.

The only “crisis” is in the minds of the Fake Media like The Hill.

He was not an American.

He was an Islamist.

Right now the Saudis are valuable allies.

The Turks are pigs.

Erdogan is an Islamist megalomaniac.

Enuff said!!!
