This topic should be closed, its fake news. @ OP - Please check facts before starting new topics He is a nobody, not even remotely part of the Biden administration. Myers was released from his duties at Lockheed Martin after a sex scandal with a gay prostitute was uncovered, and is currently...

He's not even deputy level.

Looks like you have got your facts wrong. He isnt the deputy defence secretary. He is a nobody: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Myers_(New_Jersey_politician)

Unlikely with Biden, everything has changed. MBS no longer has the same level of influence in US. This article shows India was counting on cheap oil from SA to fuel its recovery. But this isnt in SA interest.

You forget to mention that UAE have forced us to repay loans earlier then was intended. We can probably do better than supply the arabs with cheap labour. This is just a brain drain. This isnt about Palestine. Saudi forcing us to choose SA, UAE & Israel over Iran & Turkey.

Nope per Wiki - " Investigators determined that the accident had been caused mainly by pilot error. Visibility was poor due to overcast and the ground proximity warning system would not have been triggered in time because of the steep terrain.[4] "

Actually it reported in the press Qatar weathered the storm pretty well, largely through Turkey/Iran support. Hence Qatar never really negotiated with SA/UAE. I wonder why Pak doesnt have better relations with Qatar?

This is true, SA needs oil at $80 a barrel to balance its budget. Imagine if oil never reaches this price again. SA cant afford any more handouts. Instead of planning for lower oil prices, the princes were busy snapping up $500mil play boats and generally focusing on self interest above...
