I summon my blue-eyed slaves anytime it pleases me. I command the Americans to send me their bravest soldiers to die for me. Anytime I clap my hands a stupid genie called the American ambassador appears to do my bidding. When the Americans die in my service their bodies are frozen in metal boxes by the US Embassy and American airplanes carry them away, as if they never existed. Truly, America is my favorite slave.
Now, granted, Fahd was speaking of Americans - however, when discussing Saudi/Islamic issues, it's important to recall the institutionalized Islamic/Saudi characterizations of Americans and Israelis/Jews as the two satans.
This attitude is the reason I've always detested the Saudis, together with the fact that their money, directly or indirectly, accounts for most of the world's funding for radical Islam and jihad.
I think that the Saudis realize that Trump won't lick their boots as Obama and the Bushes did, and with America independent of Saudi oil, they're looking for any friends they can find. Who will they go running to next? Maybe China would prefer them to Iran, but I doubt that their arrogant, entitled attitude would go over well with Xi.
And what will happen to ARAMCO?
