Dear Saudi Arabia,
You paid for these loons, you clean up your own mess.
Sincerely,
America
Obama can boast this will have my name on it, too.
Thanks. /s
Not the first incident in that town. There was a shootout between police and gunmen in March. It’s not in the boonies. It’s right in the heart of the Eastern Province, right by Aramco facilities in Dhahran, Abqaiq and Ras Tanura.
Conflicting reports from different news agancies now that the death toll has risen to 20-30.
Curiously, CNN has yet to mention this, despite the news being several hours old now!!
The Saudis have always relied on surrogate armies to defend them. Now with Obama in office, who will the Saudis turn too?
Will they actually fight their own war? On two fronts?
I’m betting the Russians will end up stepping in and saving the arab world from ISIS at least. Iran is another story.
Saudi chickens coming home to roost?
Let the Middle East take care of its own turf. It is nothing but trouble and frankly we helped in creating that turmoil.
We gave them a chance with trillions of our dollars and thousands of our lives and it didn’t work out. If you asked many Iraqis today they’d probably say they were better off with a secular dictator than anarchy by radical Muslims where no one is safe over the last 12 years. There were no radical Muslims under Saddam or they’d be executed. Christians were safe in Iraq too. The USA would definitely be much better off, and I’m tired of apologists saying we got rid of Saddam and multiple dictators when they were replaced with anarchy and worse. All of these fiasco’s had big costs, ask the gold star mothers and wives. The incompetent neocons and interventionists need sent packing far away from the halls of power..
We have more than enough work to do in America. My choice would be to end the billions in aid we send to the ME and start spending it to put the USA first.
We made a huge mistake, now cut our losses and seal our borders and rebuild America for Americans. I’m sick of hearing McCain and others saying we need to do more. We need to wash our hands.
Well since the muzzies all use the mosques as armed weapons camps and staging areas, bombing them seems okay to me. Ain’t that what you do to the enemy’s ammo dumps?
Didnt Obama warn/threaten Saudi a few days ago?
