Do you know how many Princes there are in Saudi Arabia ?Agreed - it's very comforting to know that no irrelevant Saudi Princes or other irrelevant important Saudi sons have ever done us major damage.old salt wrote: ↑Thu Sep 24, 2020 12:17 amCurrent what ?

Old news. Faisal is now irrelevant has been. He's been put out to pasture.
Turki bin Faisal is the Fredo of the House of Saud. ...MBS is Sonny.

How does the addition of Sudan play into the this? According to the article, some just want to keep up with 'the old ways'. Change is tough I suppose when peace is at the forefront.youthathletics wrote: ↑Sun Sep 20, 2020 9:15 amYou all do realize that you are proving the value of this "deal"; money, alliances, safety and stability, is what 'most' all countries and its people want. The ability to sit at the table and work things out....unlike our own damned congress. The opposition sound like a salesman that can't figure out how they lost a big sale, when it really just boiled down to some good ole' fashion relationship building and sharing some perks. The Art of the Deal?Kismet wrote: ↑Sun Sep 20, 2020 7:48 amCalm down. This isn't exactly Begin/Sadat type material. Bahrain and UAE basically traded diplomatic relations/recognition of Israel in return for 1) Bibi's guarantee not to annex any Palestinian land as allowed in the recent Kushner one-sided "peace plan" and 2) the ability to purchase latest American war technology including F-35 stealth aircraft plus advanced stealth drones. Makes sense for them as a hedge against Iran (although Bibi is reportedly not too happy about his new "allies" having the same high-tech aircraft as he does now....wonder why that is?????)old salt wrote: ↑Sat Sep 19, 2020 11:30 pmThis is like the Berlin Wall coming down, in the middle east. It's a realignment.
It's the initial step in formalizing an alliance to contain & deter Iran & their proxies.
Who would have dared to imagine this in 1967 or 1973 ?
The Palestinians must make peace or be further marginalized.
It's your typical mafia-style deal brought to you by dirtbag Kushner and the rest of the family business including disguised Neocons like O'Brien, Pompeo, Cotton and the rest of your alleged multi-dimensional chess players. You complain about BHO selling out and then look the other way when your heroes do the selling out just in a different way.
Might also explain why the Qataris (who may be next in line for the same arrangement) were recently outed as renting a entire floor of of a SFO Trump property for quite some time without so much as ever occupying any of the space - KACHING!

Don't forget to applaud DoD for finally supplying what's left of our troops in Syria alleged ""guarding oil" some armored Bradley Fighting Vehicles to deal with Rooskie provocations ramming Humvees still trying to get DOPUS to remove all of them from the region.
As usual, you're delusional.
Another country that has had covert relations with Israel for decades. UAE, Bahrain, Sudan are incredibly low hanging fruit, and yet there is still pushback.
It might work out better for them than signing any agreement with the Biden administration. Joey B... the mouth that roared.
