Saudi Arabia has no backbone or moral fortitude. Slavery is practically legal there. The worst of "influencers" go live in Dubai so they can hold people hostage to exploit labor. Now I really hope we take out Netanyahu soon, which should be a requirement for any politician running to promise arresting that war criminal, and Bonesaw Bin Salman as well.

They spent all of last week trying to get the US and UAE to back off. This seems out of left-field.

That's a bit world war-y, now isn't it
