Question for yous
Iran leadership - Shiite (shia)
Saudi Arabia - Sunni (Wahabi)
If MBS (sunni) paid for Husseins education, why did he flip and start paying/arming Iran (shia)?
These ideologies are fierce rivals and have been willing to murder each other for centuries. With Saddam gone from Iraq, they have been having a proxy war in the open. Before, Saddam kept a balance but leaned towards sunni and saudi arabia.
So what caused Hussein to flip support? Remember his bows to the SA King? But then his secret transfer of funds to Iran?
Doesn’t make sense. I have some ideas on it, but would like to get other people’s thoughts on the matter. Sorry, not trying to slide. I know there is a lot going on with the Mueller report, but this just popped into my head earlier and it’s been swimming around.
