Just when you thought Middle East relations had hit a new low, now even the Saudis won't talk to us.

It shouldn't be surprising.  We are turning our backs on our old allies in the Middle-East.

Yikes

Allies is a strong word

[mtangelsfan]

If they let us operate militarily in their country I'm not sure what else you may call them.

 

France and Germany our are allies and we spied the shit out of them.

It's symbolic to show their dissatisfaction with the Iran nuke deal. The people who would actually participate in the summit will still be there.

And then there's this:

Saudi Arabia Promises to Match Iran in Nuclear Capability

Ha ha, I would like to see the U.S. try to stop them.

Not sure where to leave this, so I'll just leave it here.

Short little opinion piece I thought was good. Hope you like it.

Holy ****, that was terrible.

[DowningRules]

Holy ****, that was terrible.

 

How so?

[Crampknees]

How so?

I like how it says "as the sand runs out on Obama."  Truth is when the hour glass was first turned and as the first grain of sand was falling, we were already becoming socialists; don't have a child, they will be indoctrinated; total ruin and Armageddon itself.  Not to mention being a Muslim, we are all Muslim, you get the picture. 

 

So now it is, "as the sand runs out" he is just a real jerk.  That is a pretty damn good improvement to me from the end of times. 

[Lhalo]

Last week.

I'm sure Russia is being completely honest here and not manufacturing hysteria.

When did conservatives start loving and trusting those communists?

[Lou]

when did libs start hating them?

I dunno.  Did they ever love them?
