President Trump has decided to go the route of the long term relationship with the Saudis it appears with his big visit last year and pledges of Saudi dollars being used to buy weapons from the USA and Saudi bucks being invested here in the USA.
It means hostility to Iran and one wonders where that ends up.
Will the “Persian Spring” be the new “Arab Spring” by this time next year?
A newer bigger Syrian situation on the map?
You could make the argument that it makes sense to side with the Saudis, for now, due to Iran’s ongoing development of nuclear weapons and delivery systems, which must be stopped. And there is the fact that the new KSA Crown Prince, Mohammad bin Salman, seems to be taking action to reign in the Wahabi factions.
That said, long term they are still our enemies.
