First a couple of observations: 1) Alabamians deserve Saudi Arabia more then they do America. 2) Just what is it that makes America have relations with one of the most corrupt, evil, monstrous regimes on the planet. Oil? Give me a break. We have more oil than we will ever use up. Give the Saudis the finger, the human-hating environmentalists the boot, and embrace your fossil fueling savior, oil. On to my main point: America would be wise to stop partying with our murderers—the evil, rotten, vicious, cowards, the Saudis, and I mean the Royal Family and it’s religious police, as well as their complicit subjects. https://newideal.aynrand.org/saudi-arabia-and-un-partners-in-crime-against-women/ Call the Enemy by Name
Yes, it's partly oil, but not because we need it. It's because Saudi Arabia sells a *lot* of oil, and prices it in US dollars, which supports our status as world reserve currency. And, there's this: According to data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the biggest importer of arms from the United States from 2009 to 2018 was Saudi Arabia. This infographic uses SIPRI's "trend-indicator values" (TIV). These are based on the known unit production costs of weapons and represent the transfer of military resources rather than the financial value of the transfer. DESCRIPTION This chart shows the countries importing the highest value in arms from the U.S. from 2009 to 2018.
Well the world is not a pretty place. There is all kinds of nasty things going on. I recently read how North Korean girls and women are sold into sex slavery into China by the thousands. Why is everyone quiet about China's atrocities?
