    Decades of funding fundamentalism and terrorism throughout the world, decades of horrifically repressive misogynist laws, years of war in Yemen, and we're just now realizing that Saudi Arabia is bad. Well, better late than never I guess.

        I’ve been hearing they’re bad at least since 2001. Are there any explanations for why they are so bad?

        The west has been blind to the horribleness of KSA because KSA is responsible for the massive fortunes of many western elites

        Isn't there an episode of West Wing from like 20 years ago where they say how bad Saudi Arabia is and how ridiculous it is that they're US allies?

        They've bin laden with terrorist connections but oil wager that they'll slide thanks to Kushner.

        The fracking revolution should have made it easier than ever to be clear minded about Saudi Arabia's real impact in the Middle East. Sadly it didn't.

        It's the boldness of this latest move, murdering a journalist in their own embassy in a foreign country, dismembering his body and smuggling it out, that's got everything re-evaluating how far the Saudis will go. But yeah, we should have all seen them for who they are long ago.

        Unfortunately if we didn’t isolate them after 9/11 it ain’t gonna happen now. Money is too powerful for some.

        It’s been a couple of years of reckoning with a lot of things. All the time while democracy seems to be on the edge of a precipice. Hopefully truth will prevail in the end.
