It should also disabuse anyone of the notion that this administration is any less in bed with the Saudis than previous administrations were.[/quote]
The Saudis? I thought it was Israel pulling the strings? I think it’s neither, though SA is closer to the truth. Or maybe it’s all 3 countries with parallel motivations, a common enemy in Iran. Stick with Assad and Iran wins. Go with the rebels and it’s only 50/50 that Iran wins. Maybe a little less than that. I have no doubt that at least some of the anti-Assad groups would align with Iran in a heartbeat.
