US to send troops to Saudi Arabia

Abqaiq was struck in the early hours of Saturday morning

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for the attacks against two oil facilities last week.Why would Iran raise the stakes by attacking Saudi Arabia? Mr Esper made the announcement alongside the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen Joseph Dunford Jr on Friday. According to the New York Times, when reporters asked Mr Esper if military strikes on Iran were still being considered, the defence secretary responded:"That's not where we are right now."Strikes hit the Abqaiq oil facility and the Khurais oil field in Saudi Arabia a week ago, affecting the global oil supply.

This is why we need All Electric cars across the world..!!! We can use any power to run power stations, nuclear, wind, gas, coal, solar, whatever's cheapest...

the wanker in the white house as had his toy soldiers out again. i thought the staff had been told to keep a closer eye on him. been making obscene phone calls too to russia about his opponents

This isn't going to end well...

This is one hell of a customer afterservice trump offers for buying America weapons.

Why not send US troops to Iran instead? 🤣

How predictable

Good. Arrest the Prince for murder.

US foreign policy with regard to Saudi Arabia: You give us oil and we'll give you weapons and mercenaries. We'll also turn a blind eye to any questionable thing that you do.

Here we go again...

Going to shoot the flames?

He's trying to provoke Iran.

Lefties “Donald Trump do something!”, Donald Trump “ok” lefties “Donald Trump war monger!”

Q - “Why does the US have to defend Saudi Arabia?” A - “Oil” Q - “Is Saudi Arabia paying the US for their protection?” A - “ I said Oil” Q - “Might it lead to further escalation?” A - “Oil” Q - “What if Americans are killed?” A - “How many time have I got to tell you... OIL!”

Wondered how much longer it would take, Trumps been flirting to go to war for ages!!

Now we're to spend our life's blood & treasure to protect the country that gave us the 9/11 terrorists & the murderers of journalists. My how my country has fallen.

Not a clever idea. Leave them to it.

Bad News. Americans aren't happy with this. Trump needs to go back to where he came from.

I called that last week. He’s chasing a war and now he’s got one

Concern opex and production cost, the refinery not far from oil field. Was it casualities or celebration ? Reflect in MBS face and his bueracrats

Is destroying Saudi oil producing capabilities environmentally friendly? 🤷‍♂️ Just wondering?

That's a game changer. Operation human shield will definitely be a deterrent.

Sure, because to distract from the Ukraine scandal which is going on right now.

And what are they going to do when a cruise missile or a drone attack comes? Bend over and kiss their asses goodbye?

Trump wants to have some of his US troops killed to prop him up as a strong man before the elections. Message: Troops are citizens also Mr Trump! Their blood will be on your hands!

Keep drone striking put end to terrorism oil supporting Yemen war.

tweetwen115 I'm done, take a breath before you jump.

I thought the saudis bought enough weapons from the UK every year to be able to protect them selves

Ah shit here we go again

Sure now the USS fleets need to be in Gulf Area too.

Trumpf deflecting again

Hold your fire! Proceed with your head down. Their Dynasty's came before ours. It's basic historical respect. The Queen's (all the females), are and should be protected by males. Covered but ruling. That is why they have protection. It's quite simple really. USArmy

This is just pressure on the region ... America the bully

realDonaldTrump Why do Americans have to die to protect Arabs, when 15 of the 19 hijackers of 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia?

Ahhh... is that a good idea ? I think not.

Thousands of them. Bravo

Saudi Arabia says 'all options are on the table' after oil attacksPrince Faisal bin Farhan al-Saud, Saudi Arabia's German ambassador, spoke as US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo met Mohammed bin Salman, saying the country has 'a right to defend itself.' 20 Saudian Arabians killed 3000 Americans. Yes, Saudi Arabians cheered in the streets Saudi Arabia has its own little Vietnam in Yemen & cannot do anything without getting approval from Israel & the US. The Saudis simply cannot afford to extend their covert operations to Syria, Iraq or Iran. They’re isolated. Doesn't 'all options are on the table' just mean they don't have a clue what to do?
