"Time to rethink our relationship with Saudi Arabia." What a joke. I think it's Saudi Arabia who may be rethinking their relationship with the United States. It's we who need them.

If crude oil export revenues are denominated in anything other than U.S. dollars, the petrodollar system will crumble. And along with it, the U.S. dollar.

The U.S. and the West have villainized and sanctioned Russia again and again. It hasn't done anything other than to push Russia closer to China, Saudi Arabia, and others. It's more than quite possible we will be the cause of our own undoing (but we will blame Putin for it, as usual).

It will not be "We" it will be The West, WEF, Bidet, and Leftist Media that will blame Russia.
Only the manipulated and the Sheeple will believe that stance.
Hell, most of the talking heads of MSM don't believe the crap they peddle for a paycheck.

Dems Move To Transfer Air Defense Systems From Saudis To Ukraine As Punishment​

BY TYLER DURDEN

A group of leading Congressional Democrats are seeking to punish longtime US ally Saudi Arabia for the latest "shock" oil output cuts recently announced by OPEC, which was taken by the Biden administration as a direct slap in the face and shot across the bow.

Senator Chris Murphy and Rep. Ro Khanna are leading the charge to get advanced anti-air missile systems which the Pentagon has stationed in Saudi Arabia removed and transferred to Ukraine. The systems were sent there over the past several years following an uptick in missile and drone attacks by Yemeni Houthi rebel attacks on Saudi cities and energy infrastructure coming from the south.

The main things the WEF/UK/Bidet/... don't want Ukraine to have Congress wants to give them. ( I miss the smilie banging his head in the wall)
 
at least we're only paying for the moving costs this time...

but wait, why not pull an Afghan move, leave all that there, just kill the codes and build a brand new system, in fact several systems, in Ukraine, allow for some to be R&D rated, doesn't matter who it takes out because who really cares, right? and that'll save us some cash

right?

Retired U.S. brass cash in with Saudis, other repressive governments​

Craig Whitlock, Nate Jones - 7h ago

More than 500 retired U.S. military personnel — including scores of generals and admirals — have taken lucrative jobs since 2015 working for foreign governments, mostly in countries known for human rights abuses and political repression, according to a Washington Post investigation.

In Saudi Arabia, for example, 15 retired U.S. generals and admirals have worked as paid consultants for the Defense Ministry since 2016. The ministry is led by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the kingdom’s de facto ruler, who U.S. intelligence agencies say approved the 2018 killing of journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a Washington Post contributing columnist, as part of a brutal crackdown on dissent.

Saudi Arabia’s paid advisers have included retired Marine Gen. James L. Jones, a national security adviser to President Barack Obama, and retired Army Gen. Keith Alexander, who led the National Security Agency under Obama and President George W. Bush, according to documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.
