      It’s despicable that the US continues doing business with this horrible fucking country. Instead of turning their country into glass they’re buying and selling those scumbags whatever they want.

        Well considering “turning their country into glass” would require murdering 35 million people, I’d say let’s not do that.

        you still have iran around, which ironically would probably do better out of these two when oil market irreversibly crashes (they do have actual industry other than oil, some farming and don’t need to hire sudanese for them to die in what passes for “army”)

        They were pretty worried during the Arab spring. Would’ve been fantastic if not for the insane extreme Islamists.

    saudi arabia is very isalmofascist evil itself, it should be shunned, not partnered with. the united states makes it’s own bed, even after saudis funded by saudi nationals flew airplanes into the twin towers, pentagon, and a field in pennsylvania en route to the white house on 9/11.

    So logging on to the Twitter of someone you don’t like and tweeting bad things totally doesn’t happen, right?

      This would only be a concern to someone interested in justice, not to the Saudi government.
