Q or no Q, the Saudi situation is weird. A Saudi friend of mine, who's on the liberal side of things, said that basically KSA flipped from being a horizontal monarchy to vertical monarchy over night. He also said that all of KSA's many plays, like yemen and syria, that haven't paid out has taken a toll, more than their gov is letting on, and that there's a lot of talk about a hot war with Iran filtering down to what they consider to be the middle class. Also, since you're getting flack for Blackwater being disbanded, maybe post the firm's new name, Academi. https://www.academi.com/

UpVoat for you.

Is there flack? It must be from all the shill accounts I have blocked so the comments don't filter back to me. I don't know why they all go crazy when I post about this situation. It's like they're under rocks sleeping and KERPOW!!! Then they're here doing their best to give their version of pushback.

The fact is that this situation is crazy weird. I'm so happy that you provided validation through an anecdotal report. I feel reporting on it and being wrong is less egregious than say nothing about it because we don't know precisely what's happening. And you're mentioning Q. I don't follow him/her so don't follow what's said. Perhaps that's why people are going covfefe over this. In any event, thanks for the info and I will post on this again. Hopefully, there'll be more info.

You hit the nail on the head.
