Lordy, lordy, lordy. Sometimes, ya just want to chuck the whole thing, dontcha?
Alright, Iran is not Arab, so that's the headline. Dr. Khaled M. Batarfi wants an alliance of us'n Arabs agin them'n...I don't know what the fuck they are man, they're Iranians. Then, our friends the Saudi ARABians are supporting Yemin in its fight against Houthi rebels. But our Iranian negotiating partners support the Houthis. Who knows the merits of that fight, I sure don't! But the U.S. is supporting Yemin, sending a battleship there--to stop our Iranian partners from supplying the Houthis and making the Ayatollah ma-ad, hoo-doggie.
Why can't we just all not get along? Can't we go back to hating each other? What was wrong with that? I'm okay, you're an asshole, works for me! Wouldn't it have been simpler if we hadn't spend 18 god...blessed months talking to Iran? There is an elegant simplicity to "Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran." Very appealing. Why don't we have the Teddy Roosevelt land a few missiles in Riyadh while it's there, you know, accidentally on purpose. Shiny Tahir Square--Whoops! Shiny Tahir Hole now.
I probably won't think this way tomorrow. I'm tired and frustrated. I'm really frustrated. It's such a shit-hole over there. Except for Israel. And we've fallen in deeper and deeper. I wish we would just pull back, pull out as much as possible. (I posted this thing then took it down before there were any readers, changed the last paragraph and am posting it again. If I feel differently tomorrow, I'll post some other damn thing. But this stays now!)

What Saudis did in #Yemen is exactly what Israel did to #Palestine.Acting agnst Yemenis is a genocide that can be prosecuted in int’l courts
So yeah, he's pissed. And his pissyness is giving the Obamas the shits. Once again! We're damned if we do, we're damned if we don't. We negotiate with Iran, the Saudis get the shits; we support the Saudis in Yemin, the Ayatollah craps on our head. We support the Arab "street" in blessed Egypt, we get the frigging Muslim Brotherhood. We try to work with that guy who got elected by the street and who is going to get offed,* al-Sisi stages a non-coup. Iran is helping us with ISIS, is our partner in "Parameters," and our enemy in Yemini and everywhere else as far as I can tell. And the Israelis are pissed no matter what we do.
