They'd been strongly and openly tied to the Wahhabi for almost 260 years before that, and Wahhabism is pretty much the core influence behind most of the fundamentalist and militant Islam in the Middle East. So if we weren't willing to cut ties with them long before that, why should 9/11 be the thing that changed our minds? --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...

Okay so this isn't as big of a deal as everyone is making it out to be. This is basically a defense contract for Lockheed's Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system. The point was that the king of saudi arabia wanted a discount on the deal so went through us.
for more information on what it is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminal_High_Altitude_Area_Defense This is a good deal and we are making the $110 billion dollars. So basically the promise of others paying us for defense is being put into effect here. This is a good thing everyone, no need to be up in arms. --- i7-5820K 3.3GHz, Asus X99-DELUXE, Corsair H110i GTX, 850 EVO 1TB, EVGA GTX 970 4GB FTW ACX2.0, Corsair 760T, EVGA 850W, Orion Spark, Proteus Core, Benq BL3200PT ...

Also, for all that you're pointing fingers at the Bush family, keep in mind that ten other Presidents - just about equally split between both political parties - had a chance to cut those ties and didn't do so either... half of them long before the Bushes come into play. You're not wrong as such, but to clarify this was not a partisan dig. The Bush family has actually been thick as thieves with the house of Saud and the Bin Ladens going all the way back to Prescott Bush. --- http://i.imgur.com/4fmtLFt.gif http://s1.zetaboards.com/sba/ ~there's always free cheese in a mousetrap. ...

Norm Eisen, former ethics official for the Obama Administration and a regular critic of the Trump family's conflicts of interest, noted in an email to NPR, "In my view foreign government donations to a fund run by a reputable international organization like the World Bank for a good cause are generally acceptable." But Eisen said the donations need to be strictly vetted and must be transparent. "Based on what we know, there's no reason to believe that those two things did not happen. That said, the hypocrisy is concerning, and the general miasma of corruption that surrounds all things Trump suggests some extra scrutiny here," he added. "I don't see this fund as a big problem if she does not solicit [donations] and it is entirely World Bank run," said Richard Painter, former ethics adviser to the Geoorge W. Bush administration. "But the Saudis could try letting women drive cars too. That would be good for entrepreneurship," he said. --- Never write off the Doctor! ... Copied to Clipboard!
