Thanks for the link. Here is an excerpt.

“The president also told reporters about the call. “The king said that the Saudi people are greatly angered by the barbaric actions of the shooter and that this person in no way, shape or form represents the feelings of the Saudi people who love the American people so much,” he said.”

[Given how two-faced the majority of our European NATO allies have become, it’s becoming tough to see the Saudis (who have not insulted, impugned, or tried to help overthrow Trump as have our European “allies” have) are any worse of a threat.]

No question elements of the Saudi elites have funded bin Laden and other Islamist militias/terror groups. But the specific faction of the royals who hold power have been pretty good friends to Uncle Sam. The Saudis not only helped bring down the Soviet Union, they helped fund Desert Storm. Europeans were our allies during WWII because they were invaded or in very close proximity to Hitler’s conquests. In no instance did they fund American operations. In fact, we were lucky if they even paid back the Lend Lease loans. The Soviets never did, despite helping trigger WWII by assuring Hitler he wouldn’t be attacked from two sides via the Molotov Ribbentrop Pact, and providing supplies for Hitler’s blitzkrieg in the Battle of France.

Not terrorism. Workplace Violence, like Fort Hood.

Next we’ll be told by the FBI he was bullied by our Air Force personnel suggesting it perfectly understandable to commit mass murder.

The Saudis were part of the ME scam that cost all Americans trillions (and it was trillions) during the high inflation / high interest / stagflation period of 1960s-80. Didnt they escalate the energy shortage and gas lines that accompanied the Israeli wars in that time frame?

“Not true that GWB and Obama were the two biggest presidential disasters in history. Woodrow Wilson was far worse. We are still struggling under the disasters he wrought. FDR was also a disaster in his first two terms. Lyndon Johnson was horrible, as was Carter.”

Basically,establishment politicians make asinine policy choices because most have never had to work for a living.

[caww]

Unfortunately that might have worked had Saddam not begun amassing his troops also on the Saudi border...

....”BUT what the hell are we supposed to do stay there FOREVER!!”.......

Unless you want to see a bloody war between Iran and the Sauds the answer is yes.

[Nifster]

Got it 😉😉

[Tunehead54]

Today’s FBI is totally a waste. Disband it.

They keep pretty busy - since 911 it seems anytime they nab a "terrorist" they have an inside guy setting up the "bad guy" with all the "goods" except they turn out to be duds.

Feathers in their caps but they miss the real ones.

“Unless you want to see a bloody war between Iran and the Sauds the answer is yes.”

I’d like to see it. Then we can nuke whoever wins.

The Pensacola base was where some of the 9/11 hijackers also trained per a now forgotten story from Newsweek except I did not forget the story,

ALLEGED 9/11 HIJACKERS MAY HAVE TRAINED AT U.S. BASES

BY JOHN BARRY ON 9/14/01 AT 8:00 PM EDT

Three of the alleged hijackers listed their address on drivers licenses and car registrations as the Naval Air Station in Pensacola, Fla.-known as the "Cradle of U.S. Navy Aviation," according to a high-ranking U.S. Navy source. https://www.newsweek.com/alleged-hijackers-may-have-trained-us-bases-152495

At least this time Saudi didn’t crash a plane into a building.

[allwrong57]

I thought the sarcasm was obvious.

[keats5]

Lots of reasons the MSM is avoiding this story. One is that a weapons ban was imposed on this base. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/two-active-shooters-one-week-prompt-questions-about-military-bases-n1097071

Our own military is restricted from firearms at our bases while foreign nationals are armed there as Trojan Horses.
