used to divide and conquer Arab nations. Same with the Saudis, tho they've certainly been given a "royal" treatment by the West, for now. Not much different from the way the burgeoning u.s.a. gave the "royal" treatment to various 'American Indians' to then Set Them Up and Betray them as soon as it was strategically beneficial. By the true psychopaths (who in turn got stuck in the Misery of being 'elites': wealthy in materials, but in poverty psychologically!). It seems you are promoting a possible unexamined racism against Arabs without this crucial context: That deeply attacked people do certain things under a continuing duress that is kept well-hidden from the general population. I.e. that they are very much "like us" in person. How superficially liberal to think the whole thing is merely about 'greed'; certainly a part of it (a symptom, really), tho. But the heart? I think it's about a forcefully passed-down framework (to elites as youngsters) about 'How The World Must Be Run', and then in their apathy (at being nonconsenting receivers of such) they, in psychological overwhelm (?) cease caring. And Israel is only supported, for now, because it is aiding the empire's severely alienated "interests" strategically. You want sources? |
