"we supply the Saudis Defense military, fighter jets,"
Liar! We don't supply free of charge as we do to Israel, BUT SELL AT A PROFIT!
"We were also their "backup" when there was fears that Saddam"
Yes, and Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, unlike the welfare state of Israel, paid the US tens of billions for that operation. America was not so much protecting Saudi Arabia as the oil supplies of America and Europe.
Israel Sucks! You bet they do! They are Judaism Orthodox theological project in the Middle East funded by over $100 billion (some estimate $200 billion with hidden programs) in American tax dollars. It amounts to some $250 million per Congressional District. Some 100 new high schools or several new VA hospitals, or additional money for medication for the elderly, or hundreds of miles of new blacktop roads. Israel makes the deserts bloom with hgundreds of billions American greenbacks and Euros!
Although America has gained both economic and political advantages by our alliance with Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, etc., Like you, I do not support the Islamofascists regimes in these nations. Certainly the Saudis have a right to have whatever kind of government they desire, but they have no right to point fingers at others about their lack of democracy or justice. Saudi Arabia, like Israel, is a theocracy where Christians, Buddhists, Jews etc. have NO freedom of religion and worship. |
