Hmmm, the Marine Corps dates it’s founding to the establishment of the Colonial Marines in 1775. The modern Corps was reestablished during the The Quasi-War with France in 1798. The Barbary Wars didn’t begin until 1801. It did contribute a line of lyrics to the Marine’s Hymn though.

Do we know if the Crown Prince leans toward crazy jihadist Wahhabism? Or might he lean toward the “Let’s stop being insane” concept?
He's the guy that's been pushing modernization/'moderate' Islam. He's fought corruption, severely curtailed the Virtue/Vice cops, limited clerical power within the kingdom, opened movie theatres, allowed women to drive and attend sport games, and so on. Definitely the guy (out of the option in SA) that we want at the front when his dad dies.

His market move to drop oil prices and flood the market is meant to take out Iran.

I thought this one was mostly aimed at Russia? And on top of the inability of OPEC to agree to cuts at their last meeting.
