Our alliance with the Saudis is to counter Russia’s alliance with the jihadist ayatollah pigs. We pit the Sunnis and Shiites against each other. Divide et Impera! The alternative is that all the muslims would be united as Russian allies against us.
Wouldn't it make more sense for us and the Russians to ally against the Muzzies rather than for us to ally with the Sunni's and Russia with the Shiites.
...oh, and before signing out, i want to extend a tip of the fedora to Jimmmy Carter without whom today's mess would never have been possible.
