      the Saudis are the problem

      their oil, IS the problem

      their strangle hold on their religion is why they are fighting with Iran. It’s the Troubles on a much higher scale.

      stupid rich assholes fighting over the religion while ganging up to throw shots at the mutual ancient enemy religion of the region

      The “funny” thing is always when Saudi and Irani diplomats at some point go “hey at the moment this whole proxy war thing really isnt working for us, could we please work together for a while?” and then most of the pointless killing and attacking in the middle east stops for a while.

      And you realize once again that they are not actually enemies to death or anything like that. For them, it’s just a “power struggle” for influence in the region.
