John Foote + 1,135 JF July 29, 2018 Yes, but not this. Massive overreach by MBS on so many fronts. The Houthies have very little ability to project force. It’s incredulous the Saudis, considering the spend, haven’t crushed them. Saudis would probably be happy to lose a ship or two if it dragged the US directly in. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marina Schwarz + 1,576 July 31, 2018 I think they'd actually be happy to drag the US into a war with Iran but it won't happen. If it could have happened, it would've. Their worst nightmare is that their grand plans are failing and they are failing spectacularly. It's really fascinating to watch. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's really fascinating to watch. The emperor has no clothes, a lot of folks selling hyper expensive invisible threads, and yes, failing spectacularly. I feel for the people. I really enjoyed my time there, but it fear will get ugly in the next few years. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marina Schwarz + 1,576 August 1, 2018 Yes. Unfortunately, it's always the people who have nothing to do with the grand plans that foot the bill for them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marina Schwarz + 1,576 August 1, 2018 The horror:Â Saudis forced to work as mechanics, tea-sellers and burger flippers for first time as austerity bites Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
