Exploit it you say? Please get in line behind the russians, the chinese snd pretty much all arab countries

What did we do? As if our governments aren’t US vassals? Yet you still demonize us. If Arab governments had any sway our governments wouldn’t be paying tributes and forced to normalize with Israel and host US troops.

The only foreign country that controls US politics and bought US politicians from both major parties is Israel. www.opensecrets.org/industries/summary?cycle=All&…

The Saudis did not give the Jared billions for nothing. Just remember, the Saudis and Israelis told Bush to invade Iraq and next up is Iran with Putin’s Sock Puppet in charge. It will be a massive cluster fuck.

Leaders in the region fear that the US will turn their countries into another Iraq so they pay up. Don’t confuse tributes for bribes.

Saudi Arabia opposed the invasion of Iraq. It was Netanyahu that went to congress and sold the war to them.

Crap, I should have typed the 1st Gulf War and Bush Sr. You are correct about the 2nd invasion, the Saudis did not want Iraq fractured and the Shite’s gaining power through Iran.

In the first Gulf War it was out of necessity. Iraqi troops invaded Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Khafji

Even today, other than wealth, Saudi Arabia is a much smaller country than Iraq with half its population -Saudi Arabia’s population figures are inflated since over 40% are foreigners-. In 1991 Iraq was much stronger, and much more self sufficient, it could have taken Saudi Arabia in days if it weren’t for the coalition forces.
