Thelma Viaduct, let me disagree on two points of your sharp posts.

1. Quite a strange statement about Saidis and Jews. Do you have a proof link? All the official publications say that the current dynasty of the Suadi kings could only be traced back to the 15th century as oldest. The legend about a jew who deceived Bedouins, killed their leaders and then declared himself a king does exist in the folklore, but sounds as realistic as dragons killed in multitude by the knights of the King Arthur.

2. "CIA et al" did not get bored of their "western installed puppet governments". In think it was indeed a great achievement that secular regimes were installed in some islamic countries in the XX-th century and nobody was interested to change this order. IMHO, some western establishments got bored and irritated about particular puppets like Gaddafi, Husein, etc. who got out of control. But a great mistake was to underestimate the level of religious extremism of the mob that came after. Why to fall into the forth pitfall in Syria after Iraq, Afghanistan and Lybia? That "baby Assad" is not a good guy and clearly should be replaced, but he managed to continue the secular regime of this dad for about 10 years until a so-called "arab spring" was implanted in Syria.
