    I felt it was a waste of time as it wasn't going anywhere or even talking about the points raised. ;)

    I see the attack on the Saudis as positive.

    1. It shows that the american equipment they bought is trash. The oil plant was even protected by patriot rockets. They failed miserable. Putin already joked they should buy S-400.

    2. If the americans think they can do undercover missions, so can others.

    Wow! Just wow. There are so many strange things like that about the attack that day. Don't want to derail this into a conspiracy thread though.

    Did you ever meet prince Bandar? Interesting dude with an interesting history.......

    I never met Prince Bandar. I knew his father,

    I don't want to go conspiracy either, but remember the guy who issued visas at the US Embassy in Arabia was from Yemen. He left his job before Sept 11th.

    Saudi pride wont be back online till November 1st. Their highest commander reacted kinda sissy when journalists asked him why they failed so much. All that posh equeipment and it was useless.

    At same time they acnt even beat some weak ass insurgency in Yemen while those insurgents strike their infrastructure.

    Saudi Arabia ha ha ha what a joke. I think next iranian missile should target Riyadh that riricolous skyscraper.

    They have. They are seen as patheticly weak. At a press conference a german journalist openly asked their defense minister if he feels ashamed because their military so patheticly failed. The minister started a angry ad emotional rant.

    The Saudis most critical infrastructure are soft targets. US defenses didn't work. They're screwed and they know it. Time to sue for peace with the Houthis.

    Saudi Arabia won’t attack Iran. But it may pay someone else to

    Bandar was so close to the Bushes that they called him Bandar Bush. His involvement in the BAE arms sale to the kingdom was fascinating reading:

    Just the tip if the iceberg I think........

    Quit the personal attacks. They are against forum rules. I was simply pointing out your double standards.

    Well, not exactly.. Bandar was called home because he couldn't influence Bush NOT to invade Iraq. Back when Bush was still a wild boy he borrowed money from some Saudis to screw up an oil deal.. Lost it which is hard to believe unless he was stoned.

    If you believe this is a personal attack then by all means report it to the moderators and perhaps they can inform you of what a personal attack is.
