Our friends, the Saudis

The Saudis are such good friends of Ours that Our ever wise government has okayed a 28 billion dollar arms sale to Them. Great, good for the House of Saud. Politicians talk about spreading freedom and democracy around the world. They talk about how Our enemies are repressive tyrants Who hate Our freedoms and Our way of life. Holy shit, has Anyone looked at Saudi Arabia lately. Not exactly the best example of democracy with rights for All regardless of faith or gender. I am a simple Kansas bumpkin so I know I can't comprehend things of this magnitude. I just don't have the brains or common sense of Our foreign policy Experts. I am foolish enough to think that it ain't a good idea to dump all this firepower off in such a volatile area as the middle east. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, We also made a deal with those lovable Israelis for some weapons of Their own. To Me this sounds like pouring gasoline on a house fire, but as I said. What do I know?
