“Although a member of the Non-Aligned Movement, Saudi Arabia was once described as leading the "Pro-Western Camp" of Arab countries, aligned with the U.S. and composed of Egypt, Jordan, and Arab states of the Arabian Gulf. Saudi Arabia and the United States are close strategic allies and partners.”

MAJ Bryan Zeski And why are we doing that? We don’t need their oil. Oh yeah, most of the world would be seriously effected and the increases in oil prices would negatively effect the global economies. That is our jobs when we take up the mantle of global police force. Like having thousands of military in South Korea.

MAJ Bryan Zeski Kind of hate to admit it, but I’m starting to believe Trump borrowed Obama’s red paint for his line in the sand.
