Trump says Saudi Arabia will help rebuild Syria instead of US: 'Thanks Saudi A!'
2018-12-24
[The Hill] President Trump said Monday that Saudi Arabia, rather than the U.S., will "spend the necessary money" to help rebuild Syria.

Trump, who made the comment in a tweet, added that it's "nice when immensely wealthy countries help rebuild their neighbors" instead of the U.S.

"Saudi Arabia has now agreed to spend the necessary money needed to help rebuild Syria, instead of the United States. See? Isn’t it nice when immensely wealthy countries help rebuild their neighbors rather than a Great Country, the U.S., that is 5000 miles away," he tweeted. "Thanks to Saudi A!"

#10  ISIS Sunni moslem. SA Sunni muslem.

Yes, but one camp considers the other infidels due to lack of DEFCON4 intolerance, so it's still a contest of opponents.

#7  I prefer the current direction of the KSA to that of Iran so for now I approve. This is possibly a transient approval-:

#5  Well it's about fucking time.

I swear, the best thing Trump has done is to prove that these things are possible, and were possible all along.

#4  I think SA realizes that if it wasn't for Trump right now, they'd be twisting in the wind over the Kashogghi thing, and they need to be directly in control of their own local arrangements going forward, as there will eventually be an SJW president who will betray them in a heartbeat.

#2  I think a "gentleman's" agreement has been reached. SA will take care of the Islamic ME, but if Iran so much as seriously threaten you, its dust. I think its one both parties can work with.
