Via Doug Ross we see this article about how the recently released 9/11 documents implicates W Bush and Clinton in covering up the House of Saud’s involvement in terrorism.
Well, duh.
The article is chock full of things that show that the house of Saud owns may of our pols.
Yeah, this is what’s been happening for decades, it’s been obvious to anyone who felt like spending the time to figure this stuff out. Why else were all the bin Ladens flown out of the US before the resumption of non-military flights?
The House of Saud has been buying our retired pols, diplomats and useful gov’t workers for far longer than China has owned the Clintons.
One thing I’ve been expecting people to notice but haven’t seen is that the release of this stuff is the latest in a long of situations where Obama always sides with Iran’s Shia version of Islam against the Saud’s Sunni.
Sunni Muslims have been noticing it for a while now (that’s Now Lebanon noticing it).
I do wonder how he chose the Shia sect over Sunnis. They both seem to hate America equally, it must have been quite a dilemma for him.
As a minitrue aside, the Melania Trump speech must have been pretty good the way they’re going after her so hard.
Last night I saw the ‘BREAKING NEWS!!!!!!!’ that she had speechwriters (unlike Obama, who’s speeches are written by…uhhh… speechwriters, but IT’S NOT THE SAME THING!!), today it’s been non-stop, “Plagiarism”. That’s literally all I’ve seen on CNN today.
Apparently, there’s nothing else going on except a threat to their Golden Cow.
Important Update Here!!!!
Golden Cow
Now, that right there’s funny, I don’t care who you are.
CNN started it. That’s an accurate screenshot.
I warned them about Exodus and golden cows, but they never listen.
See, this is where sufficiently advanced incompetence becomes indistinguishable from active malice. And yes, that is a restatement of Hanlon’s Razor. But watch it work! So as of Jan 2009, we’re nominally friends and allies of most of the sunnis in the ME but at odds with Iran which Dem politics sez is because BOOOOOOOOSH. So what to do? Smart Diplomacy™ of course! Naturally, the Iranians are all too happy to string the administration along, because that’s what they do, wring a bunch of concessions out of them with vague considerations towards doing stuff that we might want, because that’s what they do, then turn around and keep doing stuff, brag about doing said stuff and say that they’ll never not do the stuff we wanted them to stop doing. Because that’s what they do. Now we’ve destabilized things and made our allies unhappy, because we’re strengthening their enemies, so now what? Well, we’re nominally friends with most of the sunnis in the ME and we’re at odds with Iran because BOOOOOOOOSH, and the mess is growing so what to do? Soooooooooper-Smart Diplomacy™ of course!
That makes a bunch of sense, we already have a bunch of college-stoner parties running foreign policy so a knee-jerk reaction against what
daddyBush did is not just plausible but likely.
