'Enemy of the enemy is my friend' applies here as U.S. is expecting some help from Iran.

I think the Saudis were okay with many of the ISIS types when Crown Prince Badr was raising his army to fight in Syria and, yes, I think some of it was considered a means of sorting out Tehran and the Shiites but the Islamists went rogue and decided to raise the Caliphate. Now it's the Frankenstein's Monster of the House of Saud and they realize they're not safe either.<br /><br />Hi, BY. It's bad enough having the Crusader infidels blow up Muslims. The optics of the Crusaders and the Jews slaughtering Muslims would be too Biblical for the Arab Street to bear.

So far there's no signs of any takers.The Mound of Soundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09023839743772372922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-90238751591236564652014-09-11T17:34:09.618-07:002014-09-11T17:34:09.618-07:00Why isn't Israel ever willing to put some of i...Why isn't Israel ever willing to put some of its arsenal in the aid of their best buddy USA? Israel is first to signal all these scary threats - Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria - but their powerhouse army is never called upon to help any coalition of the willing a US President puts together. Is there an obvious reason that I'm missing?Beijing Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05579118045254845839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32931256.post-51101783420752805912014-09-11T12:03:24.866-07:002014-09-11T12:03:24.866-07:00Mound, I doubt they will keep their promise.
