The US has been squeezing Saudi Arabia for decades falsely accusing them of being the perpetrators of 911. The Saudis are not the culprits. The Russians are. 911 was the response to numerous American provocations inside Russia during the 1990's. The US tried to break Russia up with a proxy terrorist campaign inside Russia ie Chechnya, it crashed the Ruble, US economic warfare shock therapy killed millions of Russians, the USS Memphis and Toledo sank Kursk. I think MBS knows this. Because the Saudis were the cutout for US support of Islamic Radicalism inside Russia in the 90's.
Well,
the Russians have been patient. It looks like they have flipped Saudi Arabia to
a degree.
