Remember this:

All liberals lie. They can't help it. It comes natural to them.

Got it?

Obama, bin Sultan said, “would promise something and do the opposite.”

LOL. Where to begin? First, the King got a first hand experience of what Obama did to Americans for years. But I'm not sympathetic to the Saudis. They got way too used to the Bushes kissing their asses and bending over backward for them for two decades. Welcome to reality.

The Middle East was turned into a maelstrom by Obama - the biggest refugee crisis since WWII, and the Major City of Mosul largely destroyed - mountains of bodies. For which they gave him a Nobel Prize.

Partner, you hit a homerun with this statement.

We think that the America Hating Obama was the biggest Imposter ever and it will take even longer time to get rid of that awful taste of the Imposter POTUS Obama.

While I do not doubt the report or its source, the Saudis were not the “white hats” in the multi-sided civil war in Syria. The majority of forces the Saudis backed there were fundamentalists and the majority of fundamentalists were composed of persons aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood of Syria. If those sources had been successful against Assad, becuase the U.S. intervened against Assad, the result would likely have been a short-lived fundamentalist regime, followed by a another civil war to get rid of it and putting the U.S. again on the out-of-power side in that civil war, or see an anti-American fundamentalist regime prevail.

The real problem was ever siding with the idea of removing Assad. He did represent something of a threat to our interests in the region, but he and the threat his regime posed was contained and readily manageable without any escalation on our part.

Turning Syria into a destabilized state turned a contained security threat into one that easily reached and easily obatined massive new assistance from both Iran and Russia - things that Assad had no call to do before his regime was attacked.

It is duplicitous of the Saudis to claim all of that as Assad and Obama’s fault. The real fault lies with the wrong headed ideas about imposing a regime change agenda on Assad - one that the Saudis were fully behind.

That website’s nothing but a front for spreading around RussiaToday and Iran Press nonsense.

So you don’t like VT, ok. The same story is in politico, CNN, New Yorker, and many mainstream places.

“Bandar bin sultan Bandar apparently was never asked if he “chose not to see” the 31 checks totaling $70,000 that his wife sent to Osama Bassnan, a US-based Saudi national suspected of being part of the hijackers’ logistical and financial support system.”

But the real interesting story to me is why you answer an obscure post of mine on a year old thread, so you can defend the Saudi ambassador from plain facts? You a camel jockey fanboy?
