(1,333 posts)we are all neocons now. Saudi bombing and oppressing a Middle east country is just a continuation of what we have been doing in the middle east. I am afraid these people don't hate the policy, they just hate paying for it.
Bomb away, head chopping, women hating Saudis. The Yemenis probably did something to the Saudis to deserve those cluster bombs

They have roughly the same number as Ukraine does, they have the 4th largest defense spending which is used to purchase from US defense contractors. Saudi Arabia provides their imported labor & staging -- it is mutual relationship that they both profit from.

The US gives them money which they use to purchase from contractors. It is a very corrupt system of simply looting from taxpayers.
