I'm watching to see if somehow Iran "steps in to fill the void" being left behind here.

We've seen that happen before........

There were commitments from Saudi Arabia to buy US weapons and invest in US infrastructure when President Trump visited back in May.

If the current regime holds up our debt ridden nation will get help to “Make America Great Again” that will create jobs for Americans.

President Trump tweeted his confidence in the Saudi government over these matters.

I would be amused if nuclear armed Iran vaporizes Mecca and Medina.

It appears that someone, i.e., Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, is draining the swamp in the Saudi desert. I confess that I don’t know a lot about the Crown Prince, who is the successor to King Salman, but it appears that he may be in the process of leading a bit of a reformation of Sunni Islam.

Caww and I just call him Salman Jr. Seems he’s rinsing the kingdom of their equivalents of our Bushes and Clintons. Like his FU stance to Qatar especially, who has financed our Men Seeking Men for over a decade.

Likely they are already there and running the revolution from the shadows.

There are tons of Saudi princes and princesses. Basically anyone related to the Sauds however remotely is a prince or princess.

When Saudi King died last year? didn’t his brother assume throne? All these princes arrests and deaths seem a bit odd to me, maybe cleaning out the opposition?

If that happened Muslim’s compasses would be useless locating the Kabba to direct their 5 times a day prayers to their Allah.

Some of these guys have been providing money to Europeans and dems and calling for mass migration.

Something tells me Trump might have told SA to get their act together or we would do it for them.

When I attended my Military Police Officer Advanced Course in ‘95, we had two Saudi officers in our class that could not have been more different from each other. One was a bodyguard for one of the royal and embodied all the worst stereotypes of Arab royalty. The other was a Saudi SF officer who was as dedicated and competent a soldier as one could hope to find and was serious about his craft. I wonder where those two fall in all,of this....

Is this why gas has moved from 1.99 to 2.69 over the past couple weeks?

Not my problem.

If their pig-dog god can’t protect his holiest sites, that’s really not my problem.

I just finished a novel, Enemy of the State written by Kyle Mills under the franchise of the late Vince Flynn.

The main character is hunting down a high level Saudi prince who is actively colluding with ISIS to destroy both the Saudi Kingdom and the USA.

Pretty perfect timing it seems.

Hmmm. Perhaps they are being removed before they can betray the clintons?
