The Saudis have a long memory where once the British through Lawence of Arabia were best of friends until a fall out over the dividing of the middle east after ww1.
We had a special relationship from FDR to GW Bush and now Obama has destroyed it.
I have mixed feelings about our relationship with the Saudis. In some ways they have been very good allies. However, many of their royalty support Al Qaeda and hate the West. They have also been one of the driving forces behind the relentless Muslim colonization of the West.
A pox on all their houses—let ‘em kill each other.
