America guarantees the Saudi Monarchy’s security. We, in turn, allow them to run the Sunni-world through propagation of ideology and money. ISIS, if not directly controlled by the Saudis, is an operation gone wrong - but even then, they still serve a valuable strategic purpose in Syria for the Saudis and Americans.
Our relations with them are a deal made with the devil over 6 decades ago.

So I guess we all have lots of oil then, if prices are falling.
Wait, I thought we were running out of oil.

Personally I think this is about turning the screws on Iran and undoing the evil that President obama has done.

Trump is the new guy in town. And Obama, after the Iranian nuke deal, is perceived as a piece of Shiite.
