“The Saudi’s are NOT our friends.”
“Never have been, never will be.”
Agreed.
Back in ‘03, Dore Gold wrote the book “Hatred’s Kingdom: How Saudi Arabia supports the new Global Terrorism”.
This book was really an eye-opener and it forever changed how I viewed the Saudis. They are truly bad bad people.
For anyone who may be in doubt, buy the book (or you could probably get it at your local library) and see for yourself.
A good book.
Just a tad too heavy on unsourced diplomatic stuff and he has been accused of a...shall we say...slight bias, since he's Israeli born, but nothing he wrote has been shown to be wrong.
If I recall, this is also the guy that excoriated GWH Bush and his bumbling diplomacy of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".
Not positive on that, have to relook, but he does know of what he writes.
I recommend the book to anyone that has a doubt about the ultimate aims of the Saudi Kingdom and the effect it will/has had on Israel and the rest of the world, especially in terms of the Saudi's state sponsorship of terrorism...which they deny, vehemently...of course.
