That's probably because they can't be bothered committing to anything.
Notice how you keep wriggling out of things - if someone randomly claimed Israel was behind it, you'd be all over it like a tramp on chips.

Yes because they are hot blood arabs and Muslims so the only way to deal with them is like the savages that they are. Been reading too much Daily Mail?

Shia/Sunni conflict dates back centuries before first newspaper was published in Europe.

Having women stoned (horrible death) is pretty savage in my view.

I am supporting neither side by the way

It’s direct quote, quality news agencies like BBC report it as they hear, to avoid being accused of distorting what was said on important matter.

Iraq had zero sectarianism before the US invasion to the point that intermarriage was no issue. Most families were mixed Sunni/Shia. Yes there was some sectarianism caused by the US policies and trying to create that through the political system it forced onto Iraq. To prove this is a political rather than a religious struggle you just need to look to Palestine where they are 100% sunni and yet they are only supported by nearly 100% shia Iran. Go figure

You also ignored the point I was making. You made no mention of Sunni/Shia conflict, you said the people only understand force.

Correct, I apologise, you said you wouldn't be surprised if he (head of the Quds force, the overseas branch of the Revolutionary Guards.) had a hand in it.

You didn't use the word "probably", but I "wouldn't be surprised" if that was implied.

Some apology.


Your opinion...

I answered that later on. Saudi does not have "allies" it has customers and suppliers that it likes to do deals with.

A collection of facts...

U.S.-Saudi Arabia Relations | Council on Foreign Relations

U.S. Relations With Saudi Arabia - United States Department of State

Saudi-US Relations | The Embassy of The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

You will notice in the above links terms like "alliance", "friendship", and even from the Saudi Embassy "The Kingdom remains one of America’s closest allies and strongest economic partners in the Middle East.".

I hope that helps.

The Saudi government is definitely a stooge of the USA. But to understand how ISIS/Wahabi terrorism originates from Saudi you need to understand more about the country and the relationship it has had with the "Religious" establishment over there.

BBC NEWS | In Pictures | In pictures: US Iran evidence

I can’t believe we still argue about origins of EFPs in Iraq, that was clearly settled back 15 years ago, only issue was what to do in response to Iran - nothing overt was done, which only encouraged them to do more of the same tulip in other countries.

[WTFH]

Don't have any issues with the posts. They are only reporting news and in both cases no major issue. The real problem in the middle east has always been foreign interference.

No it's not, haven't you listened and read anything over the last 18 years?
The problem in the Middle East is Iran, always has been, always will be. Foreigners and Saudi Arabia are 100% blameless and innocent. All the people involved in 9/11 can be traced back to Iran, it's just so hush-hush that we aren't allowed to know about it. Yemenis are killing themselves, there's no evidence of UK and US supplied arms being used on children, that's just fake news.

Get with the program!

I've no problem with saying that 15+ years ago, EFPs were coming from Iran.

I can't believe that you're obsessed with Iran suddenly being the source of all evil and Saudi Arabia being the source of all good.
