"Crucial news keeps flying out of Saudi Arabia at a frantic pace, but here's the bottom line: The Saudis are marching ever closer towards a wider regional war. And the U.S. may have helped send them down that path."
After reading this article which outlines all the steps that MbS has taken to outpower Iran and set itself up as the super power in the Mideast, I think that it is clear that Pompeo’s message about Saudi Arabia having custody of two holy sites was a direct message to the IRAN CABAL. Iran has been in a war of words with Saudi Arabia about control of those sites. It gives Saudi Arabia not only a religious advantage, but a monetary advantage because of the money they get from pilgrimages and tourists to the site.
Hussein tried to give the advantage to Iran with all the billions and nukes he gave them. But then along came Trump and he gave the advantage to Saudi with the purchase of military weapons.
So the issue is not the money we get from Saudi in the purchase of weapons, the issue is the advantage that a strong military gives SA over Iran.
The khoshaggi event is an effort to disrupt the Saudis gaining power.
Potus is letting SA take out Iran
