Rubes is such a dicknipple. Always grandstanding against our real allies, ie. those actually working to get things changed. Always “for” our useless Eurotrash pards.

Marco Rubio is an idiot and he has a habit to remind us frequently. This bozo was likely a double agent, working for both Saudi Intelligence and for the Muslim Brotherhood. I don’t doubt that he was double crossing both of them. His uncle was a notorious arms dealer. His position at the Washington Post was his cover job. It’s not what he was really doing. People who play the games that he was playing often end up dead. Marco Rubio is completely clueless about any of this.

Sitting out here on my Kansas hobby farm with no access to my former sources, I was able to figure this out without much effort. Marco is playing way out of his league. He needs to be considering changes in zoning regulations.

This blood, killing, strife and discord is all part of the “religion of peace”. It seems Mr. Kashoggi crossed a line somewhere in the maze of muslim rules. A whacking team showed up and whacked him. The Saudi consulate is probably soverign territory, and subject to Saudi Arabia laws only.

Saudi and Israeli intelligence organizations have been cooperating for quite awhile and I’m sure there are factions that would love to break that up. All the current kerfluffle about the Saudis being human rights violators is being stirred up by those who would have Israel become a smoking hole. As Milton Friedman said, “Human rights are property rights.”

Anything Mario Rubico says is a lie.

As much as I dislike the Saudis, blowing up the relationship with them would have the same effect Jimmah turning his back on the Shah.

Perfect analogy. To sever the relationship would force SA into the Russian sphere of influence. Instead of American military equipment they'd buy from Russia. It would affect our entire Middle East strategy and would cause endless new complications. It's time for Realpolitik: a system of politics or principles based on practical rather than moral or ideological considerations.

The US worked hand in glove with Stalin. The US sat down with Chairman Mao. If the UA can pursue its interests with two of history’s worse mass murderers, dealing with the Saudis is just one more thing adult leaders of nation’s must do

“At least this Crown Prince has approached the Israelis (however discreetly), because he understands that God will bless those who bless Israel.”

I’m sure that’s what his thinking is...
