Saudi Arabia’s bitch!

Why is that bad?

American Oil Investors, Engineers, Drilling companies, and wildcatters won't even bother to get off their ass if the cost of crude is over $100!

That is their bottom line and cutoff point.

It has been for about the last 40 some odd years!

We have the highest lift costs in the world.. usually between $14 and $26 a barrel.

Did you actually say that production costs hadn't gone up in 40 years?

The ONLY thing that has driven increased exploration and development is high prices.. If the ppb stays low for too long no one will bother.

Trump is walking the thin line he has to.
If I recall the CIA said MbS "might have known" but there was no proof either way.
( pardon me if I do not swallow CIA assessments after bullshit like Russian collusion as well).

there are 2 competing interests -punishing KSA, and keeping KSA a close ally.
Trump has sanctioned the individuals but not the government...works for me

Peripheral costs certainly always go up.

But, you do have to hand it to OPEC for stabilizing oil prices over their time.

You can't say that Oil prices have not been stable since the inception of OPEC.

That was always the objective.. as far back as 1960 when Zaki Yamani was the Saudi oil minister.. and they did a pretty good job keeping supply and price steady.

Trump doesn't know what you know...

The Saudis had nothing to do with 9-11.. That was al Qaeda.. the sworn enemy of KSA.

AQ is steeped in Muslim Brotherhood beliefs.. and that's what's up again .. with Qatar and Turkey out to trash KSA.

You spout ' Muslim Brotherhood ' like the neoZionists spout ' Hamas ' in the hope that you can convince people that these are terrorist outfits. Both the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas WON democratic general elections in Egypt and Palestine with landslide victories. Each was subjected to a coup backed with US/Izraeli- and probably Saudi- money. The people that used their right to elect their governments are now SUPPRESSED with violence in their own countries by these anti-democratic forces. Yes- the US is an anti-democratic force- just like the Izraeli assholes, the Egyptian junta and the insane House of Saud.
The Brotherhood and Hamas are resistance movements- not terrorists. Resistance movements become ' terrorists ' to those that they resist.

A Saudi prince helped save Trump from bankruptcy—twice

In 1995, Trump was still in deep trouble—and Alwaleed swooped in again. The prince, who calls himself the “Warren Buffett of Saudi Arabia,” took over Trump’s 51% stake in his beloved New York Plaza hotel. As a result, Trump’s creditors forgave $125 million of his debt.

Alwaleed, who was one of several royals to be detained by Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman in 2017, is deemed the world’s 74th richest man by Bloomberg, and owns stakes in companies like Apple, Snapchat, Twitter and Citigroup.

I liked Alwaleed.. He is truly a self made man.. His father went into exile voluntarily many years ago because he was more forward thinking than the al Saud.. but to be fair, moving KSA forward is a slow difficult slog.

HAMAS hurts the Palestinians, moon.. They have been around since the mid 1980s and haven't accomplished a thing.. In fact, you should notice a pattern. Every time there is a flicker of hope for some sort of peace agreement HAMAS acts out with violence.

MB is at its heart nationalistic and and anti-Western... always have been.. Osama Bin Laden was a follower of Sayeed Qubt and al Banna.

I know you're an advocate for them.

I don't even care - regional geopoltics are what is in play here,and that's a fairly straight forward correct path

Trump doesn't know anything about the ME or the oil business. He's a ham-fisted ass.

Sure- condoning murder and dismemberment is what we expect from the president of the United States.
Then there's the minor matter of 85,000 dead kids and 14 million starving Yemenis who all must die for ' American jobs '. All straight forward and correct. Seek help.

Well Moon, you can always get on the internet, whine about it, and do what you do best. Nothing to actually help. This is right up your alley.

no he did not condone murder -he condemned it, and placed sanctions on the individuals identified.
Your rants about Yemen might have weight if you also went after Iran's prosecution of a proxy war against KSA
-but you didn't

What Trump wants, is to make himself rich off of the Saudi's money!

Same thing he wants from Russia!

The same thing he wants from being the president of the United States!

Everything about Donald Trump is about making Donald Trump money!

Well Damn, it didn't take long for you and I to see a trend and common denominator here! Did it? LOL! BLAHAHAHAHA!

Yemenis are starving and dying because of Iran, Al Qaeda and al Houthis. They have destroyed the government and what ever fragile economic structure the Yemeni had.

Lol, it’s pretty straightforward, Trump has basically ignored a murder. That is not who I want us to be. It’s who he wishes he could be.

That's purely lip-service to justice and crocodile tears for the perpetrators. The CONDONING comes from the continuation of relations with degenerates.

Speaking out for 85,000 dead children and 14 million starving Yemenis is not a RANT, you gutless capitalist ass.
