Why Saudi Arabia Won't Explicitly Blame Iran For Attacks



FOX News: Expert on why Saudi Arabia won't explicitly blame Iran for attacks: 'They would be toast'

On Fox Nation's "Deep Dive," a panel of experts analyzed the world response to last weekend's crippling attacks on Saudi Arabia's oil infrastructure and explained why the Saudi government seems hesitant to explicitly accuse Iran of carrying out the strikes.

"If you look at the sophistication of the attack, the ranges of the weapons used, and how this was perpetrated, it can only be Iran really," said Lt. Col. Dakota Wood, who is a retired Marine and Senior Research Fellow for Defense Program at the Heritage Foundation.

At a press conference in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia on Wednesday, the Saudis displayed broken and burned drones and pieces of a cruise missile that military spokesman Col. Turki Al-Malki identified as Iranian weapons collected after the attack. Tehran has denied that it carried out the attacks and Houthi rebels in Yemen have claimed responsibility.

Saudi Arabia should do what Castro did in the beginning of the Angola intervention.

"Are U.S. Stealth Drones Flying Around Iran?"

Can you just read the concern for Iran that Fred has?

He is so afraid that the nation that chants "Death to America", Call American "The Great Satan", and has murdered thousands of Americans, might be watched for further aggression.

Fred claims he is pro-Israel. He does not seem at all perturbed that Iran calls Israel "The Little Satan" and wants to wipe it off the face of the earth. I have seen evidence that Fred is really a Christian. He claims to be Jewish. Who knows what he is.

One thing we do know is that he is concerned that someone might be watching a bellicose Iran. You would think that that concern would be obviously misplaced. No accounting for brains.

WHAT GOSSIP You are the person that claimed you were Atheist and Jewish. You are the one that posted off topic on drones over Iran. It was off topic enough for a person tom legitimately question where your sympathies lie.


"Annual complaints to intel watchdog hotline have more than doubled since Trump took office"

Careerists with no actual value to the CIA and other agencies are worried that they maybe replaced. The complaints actually make sense.

These dudes are afraid that they might be held accountable. There have been so many stories in the last several years of American agents being rolled up in China, Iran, Lebanon that they are afraid that a Trump might say "YOU'RE FIRED!"

After all a good offense is the best defense so they are going on offense against the Donald so they can keep their pay check and continue to send agents they run in other countries to their deaths.

"If our allies are unwilling to fight and protect their sovereignty, why should we?"

There are many that would argue not to do it, but then would the US want to see SA taken over by say the Chinese or even god forbid, Iran?

That the Saudis' own a significant percentage of the US might be sufficient to mount up and defend them, or perhaps, more incentive to just take them over, especially knowing that the Saudis will not be able to defend themselves and likely nobody will come to help them fight off the mighty school yard bully of the world.

Then again SA is an outpost from which transgressions can be inflictied on other countries in the area from time to time and perhaps in the new world they could become a wonderful creditor.

Making the right decision for the right or perhaps wrong reason is a tough job.
