    And mobsters kill other mobsters everyday. They call it "draining the bad blood". The KSA's hands ignore what the lips say.

    You won't sell me KSA anytime soon, Margot.

    History, geo-political logic, gut feeling, current events, and a healthy dose of scepticism that up to this day served me rather well.

    Your gut has been misleading you, resulting in faulty geopolitical logic. You should consider other sources.

    Your interest is bashing Israel every chance you get. You don't know anything at all about Saudi Arabia or the complex issues in the ME. Currently there are two Rabbis in the Gulf states. One in Arabia and another in the UAE who are there to oversee the manufacturing of Kosher foods.

    The people of the region want peace and prosperity and a home for the Palestinians.

    Both Israel and the KSA (who surely met somewhere in Washington's corridors of power) are the two most long-term causes of un-stability in the ME, and therefore the cause why your taxpayers send sons and money to die up there. This fine, exclusive and well-off pair pretty much attack every secular neighboring arabic/persian governance, filling the void with chaos and religious extremism. They profit, thrive on it, obviously.

    Well, colour me un-surprised.

    Slogans. Mere miserable slogans.

    Have you spent time in Palestine or KSA or any country in the region? You have been on the board quite a while and you appear to have only one interest. For the ME peace means prosperity and stability. Do you know why KSA is not like Iran, Iraq and Syria? Do you know why the GCC states are making steady progress?

    How can you say I have only one interest? I post on a veriety of subjects while all yours these days are about making KSA's promotion. That nobody buys.

    You used to be a knowledgeable and objective poster. It's a crying shame.

    KSA is in the news a lot these days.. and the Saudi Peace Initiative is still on the table. I can't stand Trump or Bibi, but if they can hammer out reconciliation in Palestine even by accident, I am for it.

    petrodollar dies an instant death and the wall street bankers lose hundreds of trillions in dollar based derivatives if Saudi Arabia stops selling all of its oil in dollars.
    There is no limit to the death and destruction that will be perpetrated in defense of this arrangement.

    You are behind the times by a half dozen years.. The US doesn't buy much oil from KSA or OPEC anymore. Most imported petroleum is coming from Canada and Mexico.

    Did I mention anything about where we buy our oil?
    Perhaps your reading skills need a little beefing up?

    the down side is that tens of millions of innocent people end up dying whenever this much money is on the line

    Is your reading comprehension really that bad?

    It would be a short (if intense) kind of rapture indeed.

    At least the Saudis know how to dress when the temperature is 105 or higher.
