Saudi Arabia Says King Won’t Attend Meetings in U.S.
 


This is a huge insult to Barry. Hours after the White House confirms the King will attend the Saudis put out he won't.

Maybe a big red 'RESET' button in Arabic will make things better.

1. Bush invaded the wrong country. Just south of Iraq, moron.


Sure- we should invade another allied nation. Makes perfect sense.

8. You keep hearing about CT claiming Israel is the one pushing us to go to war with Iran....It's the Saudis. They own a big chunk of Wall Street and FOX "News" and Iran is their main rival in the region. To top it off the Saudis are exaggerating their oil reserves. For all we know Iran has more now.

12. Saudi Arabia has beheaded more people than ISIS. Yet our government favors Saudi Arabia and hides their complicity in 9/11.


I am pretty sure Barry would topple the Saudis if he thought he could get away with it.

The Saudis - like many other nations - despise him because BHO is WEAK! Undoing the damage BHO did to US foreign policy and relations will take one or two presidential terms, and the messes BHO created and/or fostered in North Africa, the Middle East, and Eastern Europe will take decades to iron out!

Which plays perfectly into the Dems hands when a Republican becomes President again and has to rebuild the military to meet the threats created by the Liberals.

Then they get to start their chant of "out of control military spending by Republicans" when the next buildup has to begin.

He can't be trusted, and his word has a half-life measured in a few months, tops, before he starts twisting around and re-interpreting it.

The whole so-called cynical strategy of having others fight the wars we want fought is an exercise in arrogance worthy of Napoleon, coupled with the Realpolitik comprehension level of Neville Chamberlain.  The countries in the region are not led by idiots or tools.  Based on the Obama track record so far, they would have to be on drugs to put our interests ahead of theirs, or to put any credence in statements from Obama about having their back.

We used to have a saying about our higher military headquarters, one of the Army major commands (MACOMs) which was that their real motto was "All assistance possible, short of actual help."  That is exactly what any alleged ally can expect from Obama, whether the ally is Israel, an Islamic country, or a secular one.

owebuma is a buffoon. He has proven that every step of his presidency.
His fecal touch has wrecked everything he has come across.
But he might have accidentally stumbled on to something.
The Sunni and the Shia hate each other almost as much as they hate Israel and all the rest of the infidels.
The secret is to pit them against each other, and not leaving any tracks leading back to us.

As much as I want to agree with you, there are Muslims who are starting to 'get it.'  The King of Jordan, for example.  The President of Egypt, for another.  Those two leaders need to be supported by freedom-loving people everywhere.
