After the Saudi Prince met with President Trump he called the president a “True friend of Muslims.” Breitbart.com reported:
Following a successful meeting between Donald Trump and his senior advisor, the Saudi Arabian Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman described Trump as a “true friend of Muslims,” adding that he respects and supports Trump’s travel ban for people from seven terror prone Muslim majority countries.
The Prince’s senior advisor, who attended the White House on his behalf, said in a statement that the meeting was a “huge success” that marked a historic turning point in the bilateral relations [between the] two countries.”
On the subject of Trump’s proposed travel ban, which a federal judge in Hawaii blocked yesterday, the Prince argued that “the measure is a sovereign decision aimed at preventing terrorists from entering the United States of America.”
The statement added that Trump had expressed his “deep respect for the Religion of Islam”:
Prince Mohammed considers his Excellency [Trump] as a true friend of Muslims who will serve the Muslim World in an unimaginable manner, opposite to the negative portrait of his Excellency [Trump] that some have tried to promote whether through publishing unjust statements that are taken out of their context or by means of unrealistic media commentaries and analyses about his Excellency.
While I wouldn’t trust the Saudi leadership as far as I could throw a battleship, it looks like they know the score. The islamist will pull them down just as quickly and as eagerly as they would us. And it sounds like they want someone to save them from the Wahhabism they’ve stupidly allow to grow and now threatens them.
Like the democrats, they built a monster and now it’s turning on them.
Until he puts Saudi Arabia on that list...
They know who is the enemy of their enemy.
This is just lip service by the Saudis toward goals by other means. Their goal remains - the Islamization of the US, Europe, and the elimination of Israel.
They exported their most radical (nee fundamental) forms of Islam because the royals know what evil and violence lurks in Saudi hearts from long experience. Exportation is just a safety value release for them, not something they have any true interest in stopping outside their borders.
They haven’t just allowed Wahhabism to grow—they have vigorously exported it to the US by setting up radical mosques across the US.
I take it Trump has pleased them by confirming some sort of military support or alliance they were looking for.
Well said.
The Saudis have been providing us with air support in Syria.
And really, we’re in on their war with the Iran proxy Syria for them.
Skeptical. Sounds like he’s saying one thing in English and another thing in Arabic.
Duplicitous flattery coming from a royal. What intrigue is going on here? Is this a game he’s playing her or at home?
what??? hell most of them are funding them! they didnt “allow” it... they FUNDED it!
“Duplicitous flattery coming from a royal.”
Par for the course for all heads of state meetings throughout history. The real stuff occurs behind closed doors.
It doesn’t matter, what matters is the DOJ now has a quote to use in the fight against the liberal courts.
This is awesome political stuff for the ignorant left.
I have given up relying on the media to inform me on any subject.
President Trump has a lot on his plate but for the most part seems to be moving the nation in the direction I would like to see us go.
The President seems to do things that don’t make sense at the time but later prove to be brilliant.
I am willing to wait and see how this all turns out and refuse to get excited over every negative report out on Trump (which I believe are design to cause a split between the President and his supporters).
I tend to agree, they “provided” to us the 9-11 hijackers.
every negative report out on Trump (which I believe are design to cause a split between the President and his supporters).

Perhaps they’ve decided it would be best if people just turned off politics all together, since there is so much dirt for the Uniparty/media to hide.
The guy looks and sounds like Obama. Could be running his country for a long time as he is so young-that is if it continues to exist.
They love American money.
