    The Saudis are scrambling to sail their ship of state through stormy waters. They have come a long way since their thinking they had Iran on the mats, by keeping its oil off the market to run prices higher, and maybe watching Israel or the US bomb its facilities. That did not happen. The Iran nuclear weapons hoax was exposed, while the Saudis are trapped in the brier patch of Yemen, tar baby and all. All the foreign workers getting stiffed on their pay has really exposed the soft underbelly.

    When slave labor is getting thrown under the bus, the Royals have sealed their own fate for when the hammer falls. It will simply be their turn. Can anyone imagine Britain with 10,000 princes, the public hostility?

    (I still can’t figure out all the overkill on the arms purchases. The Saudi military is a paper tiger. Pilots literally hire stand ins to take training classes. Man for man, the Yemenis have shown they can outfight them, and they have a better cause).

    This is an interesting read and was written by Viktor Mikhin. The longer version by the same name, is here. It gives a different perspective you will not find being published by the corporate or western media.
