According to The Atlantic, Blinken enquired whether the Saudis could tolerate Israel periodically re-entering the territory to strike the besieged Gaza Strip.
“They can come back in six months, a year, but not on the back end of my signing something like this,” Mohammed bin Salman responded.
“Seventy percent of my population is younger than me,” the crown prince explained to Blinken.
“For most of them, they never really knew much about the Palestinian issue. And so they’re being introduced to it for the first time through this conflict. It’s a huge problem. Do I care personally about the Palestinian issue? I don’t, but my people do, so I need to make sure this is meaningful.”
It blows my mind to see so many leaders so nonchalant about genocide.
This “leader” is a psychopathic murderer who should have already been executed at the hague. Instead he’s our “ally”, because we live in capitalist dictatorship’s masquerading as “democracies”.
Even he is more sincere than everyone in the US govt combined lmao
‘I don’t even fucking care but the zoomers do so i have to do the bare minimum to slow to down the genocide’ is probably better
God I hope Dems get fucked in November
Since Saudi Arabia is a longtime American asset prior to the founding of Israhell.
A country that sells the #1 commodity in the world in the currency of another country that’s aiding in the genocide doesn’t really care?
This is going to be great for internal contradictions
Kudos to whomever did the photo editing and managed to remove the gallons of blood from the hands of both of them without leaving any artifacts! That person deserves a raise!
“First they came for Palestinians, and I did not speak out because I was not a Palestinian…”
I am shocked, beyond all recognition, that the psychopath monarch who dismembered an anti-fascist journalist with bone saws could show such a lack of empathy for the Palestinian people. My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.
All of our “democracies” are ruled by sociopathic criminals who only worship the almighty dollar. The sooner everyone accepts that, the sooner we can oppose authoritarian dictatorships and genocidal ethnostates, instead of kissing their ass.
Fun fact Saudi Arabia used the Israeli Pegasus spy software to target Jamal Khasoggi.
This goes a bit deeper than their connection to America. The whole reason they were aligned with America in the first place was their mutual hatred of Iran. The Saudis HATE Iran. Coincidentally Hamas’s biggest supporter is Iran. Israel surely knows this and for similar reasons why most of the Arabian peninsula states are keeping their distance from this war.
Then they came for me, the prince of saudi
Blinken liked that answer from hereditary, autocratic, anti-lgbtq anti-women monarchy after they invested billions into ai dongle
