Which is... funded by us. Armed by us. Guarded on the international stage by us. Even when a couple of dozen of their citizens flew airplanes into our buildings, what did we do? Shake their hands and bomb their neighbors. I grant that "puppet" is hyperbole however.

Stop supporting House of Saud and let their internal enemies, as radical as ISIS, take power instead, turning the country into another Syria? Yes, supporting bad guys feels bad - but you have to consider the alternative.
