ErricoMalatesta 0 #2 September 4, 2007 Saudi Arabia do exactly as the U.S. tell them too. If they are funneling in weapons it will not be a surprise to Washington. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skyrad 0 #5 September 4, 2007 The US have a long heritage of fighting proxy wars. The irony is it will support the very millitias that have been killing its sons and daughters for the last few years. When the US Gov is so tied up at home that the troops have to be pulled its the Saudi backed millitants that will be fighting a proxy war for the CIA.When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

I didn't say they gave orders to do it I said it would not be a surprise to Washington. Actually you wrote, "Saudi Arabia do exactly as the U.S. tell them too." Then you said it'd be no surprise. Your first sentence is a declaration that the US told Saudi Arabia to do what it's doing. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The U.S. allows client states a certain leeway and they will always try to push the boundaries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tbrown 26 #8 September 5, 2007 One thing for certain is the Saudis won't fight, but the Iranians will. Which means we'll have to step in. I think this time around we should just kill them all and take the fucking oil. Even better, but less likely, would be moving beyond needing oil, so we could tall the whole fucking ratrace to mix their oile with sand and eat it. Your humble servant.....Professor Gravity !
