It’s Time to Cut Saudi Arabia From American Arms Sales

[QUOTE]America shouldn’t provide unlimited control of strategic defense systems to an ally of Vladmir Putin. That’s why we propose legislation that will immediately halt all U.S. arms sales to Saudi Arabia.

Let Iran do it after we pull our troops out, R8.

Yep pull out our troops, stop selling and providing military protection to the Saudis..Let Russia do it, see how well that works out for them since Ukraine is kicking thier ass.

Were too tied up in fuel with them. Probably a lot of other disturbing deals we don't know about, also.

R6: Biden should also re-evaluate the United States’ relationship with Israel.

What have the Israelis done to betray us, R12?

by Anonymousreply 13October 13, 2022 9:28 PM

Everything under the sun, r13.

Israel has spied, sold confidential information, and stolen technology which they’ve sold to the highest bidder - primarily China.

Since they can’t be trusted I don’t see why there should be one rule for a country like Saudi Arabia and another one for Israel.

One regime at a time, R14. We're talking about Saudis right now.

May we also remove them from the English Premier League?

It's just that if Man City with their oil money evildoing continue their reign of terror then our game is going to be nerfed from existence.

We should eliminate Saudi Arabia and restore the Hashemites to their historic right to guard the holy places of Islam.

A right which was usurped by these violent stupid desert rats some decades ago.

The only reason we allied with them was that stupid Texas and California oil men wanted to live like tribal chiefs, and so supported the Sauds.

Biden pushed Saudi away. threatening them when they wouldn't play along with his 2022 campaign strategy.

The Biden administration asked Saudi Arabia, the de-facto leader of oil producer group OPEC, to delay its decision on oil output by a month, the kingdom said in a statement.

Notably, 𝑩𝒊𝒅𝒆𝒏’𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒒𝒖𝒆𝒔𝒕 𝒘𝒐𝒖𝒍𝒅 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒚𝒆𝒅 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒅𝒆𝒄𝒊𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒖𝒏𝒕𝒊𝒍 𝒂𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒓 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑼.𝑺. 𝒎𝒊𝒅𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒎 𝒆𝒍𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔.

Similar to his prior shakedown on Ukraine.

This is ridiculous. The Saudis are getting rid of the petrodollar and aligning themselves with the BRICS block, which are emerging as the next century's dominant powers in a completely multi-polar world - which is a fact, not merely a possibility.

What can the US do? Say 'if you don't do what we want, you'll have to buy your weapons from somewhere else and we won't support your slave-driven economy and your genocide in Yemen, not to mention that we will be completely powerless to prevent you from sinking our economy'? I'm sure that the Saudis are quaking in their boots.

For once, the US is the one being stabbed in the back, as opposed to being the ones who betray everyone as soon as it suits their interests... Maybe you will learn a lesson from even, although I am extremely doubtful, as collapsing empires are driven into the ground by a combination of short-sightedness, misplaced arrogance and greed. Sadly, the US has ALWAYS been like that, and this has accelerated your ruination. The one and only thing that I regret is that you're completely destroying Europe and stealing all of its wealth to slow down your own destruction. I hope you're happy about it, because we will not.

Reminder here that of the 9/11 hijackers: 15 of them were citizens of Saudi Arabia, two were from the United Arab Emirates, one was from Egypt, and one from Lebanon.

Yet Iraq was attacked in retaliation. Saudia Arabia has always got a pass because they provide so much oil.
