So seems like they are making moves on the other side. Which US probably doesn't like. So something's going on with the timing of these news.
- anticodon 5y agoMore like Saudi Arabia could be the next target for the US attack. Reason is simple: it possesses large deposits of fossil fuel but spends "too much" (from American point of view in the world with rapidly declining energy resources) for internal consumption. By bombing Saudi Arabia, killing millions and destroying infrastructure (e.g. oil-fired power plants), USA will reduce consumption of fossil fuels by Saudi Arabia and leave more for export to the US.

- 1024core 5y agoyes, you can definitely utilize the millennia-old Shia-Sunni conflict to knock the Saudis down a couple of notches. They have been busy solidifying a wall around Iran. Pakistan is, basically, their bitch. Pakistan and Saudis have an agreement, that should the Saudis need, the Pakistani nukes will be made available within a few hours. No wonder the Iranians want to develop nukes; the Saudis practically have them!
