Overthrow? I think their gender apartheid regime should just be sanctioned the same way as South Africa was in the 80s.

- arca_vorago 11y agoI dont disagree, but I was mostly referring to the installing of the house of Saud by the British in the first place. How apt you mention another place the Rhodesian Anglo Saxon dominance group did the same thing! I recently learned that some of the first concentration camps, far before the world wars, were setup by the Brits in SA and they put the Dutch in them... I digress though. What I was trying to say is that this pattern of overthrowing a place and installing a dictatorship friendly to our interests has repeatedly backfired eventually, so perhaps we should think of different strategies.
- CPLX 11y ago> overthrowing a place and installing a dictatorship friendly to our interests has repeatedly backfired eventually, so perhaps we should think of different strategies While I fervently agree with you as a matter of principle, as a practical matter letting the people have their say in government and instigating a popular revolution to overthrow a dictator has backfired spectacularly too on many occasions. Geopolitics is hard.
