Saudi Arabia, a Cold-Blooded Unsustainable Murderous Kingdom

The cold-blooded murder of Jamal Khashoggi, a U.S. Permanent Resident living in Virginia, father of children born in the U.S., and Washington Post contributor in the Saudi Consulate in Istanbul, is just the latest murderous act of the unsustainable Kingdom honoring Prophet Muhammad’s sword proudly displayed on the House of Saud national flag.

Let’s not forget the murderous kingdom exported to the world their extreme Muslim Wahhabi-Shaaria fundamentalist practices, Osama bin-Laden, 15 of the 19 9/11 plane hijackers, and funded numerous terrorist activities against the U.S., a subject I have written about extensively in my Custom Maid trilogy of books. Starting with Custom Maid Spin for New World Disorder in 2004 and most recently in Custom Maid Revolution for New World Disorder in 2012, I have detailed numerous reasons why the U.S.-Saudi relationship should be restructured.

It is time the Saudi formidable lobbying machine of Washington influence peddlers, fake news and benevolent portrayal of the murderous Kingdom are re-examined and challenged if America is to have any moral national or international credibility in the New World Order.

Stories of Saudi funding of terrorist charities that previously
were routinely run through the Islamic Affairs Department of
the Saudi Embassy, a fact known for years to U.S. Security
agencies and the media finally made the headlines.

….

Newsnight said it had been told by a highly placed source in a
U.S. intelligence agency that there had always been “constraints”
on investigating Saudis, but under President Bush they had
become much worse. After Bush’s election, the intelligence agencies
were told to “back off” from investigating the bin-Laden family. That
policy was reversed after September 11 after the bin-Ladens had
been escorted out of America courtesy of the U.S. and Saudi governments.

The head of the American visa bureau in Jeddah from 1987 to
1989, Michael Springman, told Newsnight: “In Saudi Arabia I was
repeatedly ordered by high-level State Department officials to issue
visas to unqualified applicants, people who had no ties either to
Saudi Arabia or to their own country. I complained there. I
complained here in Washington…. To the inspector-general
and Diplomatic Security and I was ignored.” He added:
“What I was doing was giving visas to terrorists.”

….

Any wonder the White House refused to declassify 28 pages of the
Congressional intelligence report on 9/11 that discuss the links
between individuals in the Saudi government and some of the 9/11
hijackers?

Oil executives and the U.S. government have been preoccupied the
last several decades at maintaining the House of Saud in power at
any cost so that oil can flow without interruption to America.

Is this still necessary today now that America is a net exporter of energy?

After oil was discovered in Saudi Arabia in 1938, and before it entered World War II, America became a careful planner with the British on how it could assist the allied war effort with “Lend Lease” schemes and other political strategies. However it required collateral from the British in the form of their vast Middle East oil reserves. The arrangement was sealed when Franklin D. Roosevelt met Saudi King Abdul Aziz in 1945 in Egypt on a U.S. aircraft carrier decked with Bedouin favored carpets. President Harry Truman later confirmed the arrangement in 1950.

Time to carefully plan again for the 21st-century digital world!

The Saudi royal family lacks political legitimacy at home, so it buys U.S. protection from abroad. The Saudis purchase Washington influence through consultancy contracts, big defense outlays on U.S. military hardware, lucrative speeches for Washington insiders, and investments in U.S. businesses with influential figures. A long line of U.S. senior officials has benefited with the Ford, George H.W. Bush, Clinton and George W. Bush, White House and Pentagon at the front of the line.

A book by former CIA agent Robert Baer, Sleeping with the Devil, details how the U.S. government had systematically turned away from the growing evidence of Saudi complicity in fundamental terrorism, thereby frustrating the kind of investigations that might have headed off 9/11.

Granted, Iran is a bigger concern and the Sunni Saudi Kingdom is supposed to take the lead to disarm, dismantle and creatively disrupt the Shiite Kingdom of Iran. Given their poor performance in their lead role to dismantle and creatively disrupt Iran in Yemen, why bother? Surely, there are better Sunni militaries that can take on the lead. Egypt and Jordan being two at the head of the long list.

The concerns that Saudi Arabia will turn to China and Russia for military support, protection and cut off its oil supplies, or go along with OPEC price increases, is a bluff the U.S. can easily call. Bring it on! The sinking Saudi stock market, cancellations by “Davos in the Dessert” attendees and Western capitalist backs being turned towards the kingdom’s petro-dollars, bode well for America and its allies.

America must stand up for the moral high ground and Beacon on the Hill it is and represents.

After the defeat and collapse of the Ottoman Empire in
World War I, the carving up of the Gulf States, Lebanon
and Palestine into spheres of influence and mandates
followed the straight-line frontiers formula. This disastrous
policy was compounded by conflicting promises and
questionable secret treaties.

In Saudi Arabia, the Shiites who dominate the oil-rich eastern
province were cut off from their fellow Shiites in southern Iraq,
and Hijazis, who belong to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina,
still regard the Hashemite — who were sent to Jordan — as the
legitimate rulers of the region. It was a sure-fire recipe for the
current conflicts, which will continue unless properly addressed
and remedied in the 21st century.

 

It is time the U.S.-Saudi relationship, secret treaties, defense pacts and related commercial agreements are revisited and restructured. No different than NAFTA, Trans Pacific Partnership, Paris Climate Accord, Iran Nuclear Treaty and the UN.

The cold-blooded murder of Jamal Khashoggi justifies such a restructure!

The Senate Foreign Relations Committee bipartisan bill triggering the Global Magnitsky Act is the right first American step!
