Reader comment on item: Pouring Cold Water on WikiLeaks

Submitted by yuval Brandstetter MD (Israel), Dec 14, 2010 at 11:45

The title is misleading. Its pouring cold water on American diplomacy and how it is seduced to serve the Arab cause despite its overtly antisemitic judeocidal rhetoric and action.

Anyway, if the Saudis want the Iranian threat to the gulf to end, they should do it themselves. I means dont the hundreds of billions of American hardware and training of the best and brightest of the House of Saud count for anything?

I guess they dont. Atabs always want to hold both ends of the stick. to be victims and triumphants at the same time. Weirdly enough, due to American Oil addiction America will buy whatever crap the Saudis will feed them, inclusive of and not limited to a ridiculous war in Iraq.
