Don't forget about that sneaky dog in the corner (Iran). Iran's economy is being plowed under.

I'd argue that no country in the Middle East is a true ally to the US. They may say and do things to appease us but deep down they do not like us.


Except the state of Israel.

Allies yes, but also they are like that annoying family member who does sometime stupid, that you publicly support them on , but behind closed doors you grab by the ears and ask what the hell were they thinking!

We've always had and always will have their back though.

We give Saudis under $1M in aid per year. Most ov our "aid" tot hem is military training and arms sales.

Exactly. 15/19 hijackers came from there. They didn't grow to hate America without the help of the Saudi government. It's literally what they're taught in school.

I don’t think they’re doing it to crush our shale industry. They’re retaliating after Russia decided they weren’t going to cut production...

The Saudi’s are doing this to punish Russia for not helping them support prices.


Why would Russia help the Saudis? They have been actively fricking Russian economic and military interests in the Middle East for a decade with their holy war.

doesnt matter what they do to hurt us, our government will always suck them off


They literally kidnapped and dismembered an American journalist and our government just shrugged their shoulders after initially denying it was even the Saudis that did it.

It's embarrassing how we kowtow to them.

Spoken like a true American, I dont mind if we sell out any shred of morals or dignity that we have left as long as I get paid.
