Weapons Of Peace
Welcome to Saudi
Arabia. Land of desert and oil. Be good here or you're in trouble. Steal a
handbag, lose a hand. Smuggle drugs and lose your head. Head chopping business
is good. They're recruiting 8 new choppers. If you want to be one step above a
savage, this job's for you. You'll be both feared and respected with your razor
sharp sword and never out of work.
The Saudi's are
bombing the fuck out of Yemen. Using weapons bought from the UK and USA. Top
dollar warplanes dropping smart bombs. Hitting big ammo dumps and killing Houthi
rebels. Besides thousands of civilian casualties, usual collateral damage. Many
months of air raids, no end in sight. Will Iran be drawn in? Houthi rebel
backers, smashing Iranian influence. For now.
It was a small news
report: Saudi to buy Pakistan nukes. With no complaints or fanfare. Off the
shelf bombs to face off Iran. Will it deter or spur Iran to build their own
bomb? Why don't the Jews sell invisible nukes to Saudi? My enemy's enemy is my
friend. Nuclear proliferation failed. Will they buy bombs, rockets or cruise
missiles? What next for Saudi? Peacemaking?
