#1 The House of Saud has roots in the Negd region of the Arabian desert. The tribe had no ability whatsoever to control what is now Saudi Arabia. Anglo-American interests created the country - after the collapse of the Turkish Caliphate - as a protectorate. After the UN was formed, the Saudis proclaimed sovereignty and, while allowing trade and investment in the "kingdom" they subsidize brazen Wahabi subversion of their patrons. As for the oil, local savages had nothing to do with either its discovery or development. The House of Saud is a parasitic entity, which now includes over 8000 members, who are mostly hostile to their creators. The time has come to re-patriate the oil, and send the bedouin pretenders back to the desert with their dates and camels. |
