I have said for a very, very long time that Saudi is the country that is the danger. I see very little danger in Iran actually. Iran is a pretty developed nation and Tehran is extremely developed with silicon valley style tech. This video says Iran is outspent 8-1 by Saudi for weapons.

Saudi is absolutely the true danger. We never know what happens behind closed doors. Maybe every president bows down so quickly to Saudi because they say if we don't, they'll nuke the shit out of us. Who knows.

Saudi Arabia is 100 times more dangerous than Syria or Iran and just because they have money people don't even realize it. Bizarre.

I love Rand Paul would give an arm and a leg for him to be potus.

Really wish we lived in a world where our media covered actual news like the Saudi arms deal and the repercussions instead of the never ending trump garbage.

I love Obama, but don't act like Obama wasn't Saudi Arabia's bitch too.

For someone who has been around DC, you have really stupid foreign policy views.

I was exaggerating to just say what truly happens in the DoD is extremely unpredictable and often so far beyond what we'd imagine. Having been within some of those closed door meetings, I can say you'd be extremely surprised. Some of what people post on here as "ha yeah right, that'd never happen" has already happened. An easy example is a thread here a while ago saying that ICBM ranges from North Korea and other countries is no more than a couple thousand miles. That is so incredibly wrong, but I guess people find it easier to live in denial so they can sleep at night.

The bolded sentence is still mighty dumb. The Saudis would never bomb us nor does anyone with an ounce of common sense think that's why the president "bows down" to them. The president bows down to the military industrial complex which have long decided that the Saudis are an important ally. It's a steady cash flow and for the most part they peddle our foreign policy in the region. More importantly they oppose our nemesis Iran so of course we support them.
