SAUDI AND THE “BREAKTHROUGH” WITH THE IRANIANS? YA .. RIGHT!
Well, I must admit the only thing that “stunned me” after
reading this announcement was the number of “experts” stating, how stunned they
were!
Is it new that Saudi is “reaching out” to Iran?
No.
Has something changed?
Is it a linked to the nuclear negotiations taking place this
week?
Are the Saudi’s so worried their Western support is failing
that they would suddenly compromise and capitulate to the Persians?
Now, that one I can answer!
No.
So, what is taking place?
Did Prince al-Faisal decide to strike out on his own shock
his King?
Really; not a valid question.
Once again, the best way to decipher what might be taking
place, we should consider who the “message” is for and not why the message was announced.
Is the leadership in Tehran the intended audience?
Was the message to someone else?
Someone else…..that’s my bet.
Money is power and power is based on knowledge.
The knowledge of who is promising what to whom and what that
might mean to you, that is the leverage money can buy and who has more money
that Saudi?
So, this reach out takes place just as the nuclear negotiations
are set to start and who are these negotiations important to?
Yep…. The West / US.
So, what message is conveyed when the Western Leaders hear
Prince al-Faisal making such a statement?
Does it help the negotiation?
To all the progressive Western leaders, the hope is the
Saudi’s are truly looking to calm the flames of conflict with the Persians!
Perhaps this could even lead to the peace in Syria?
Maybe it’s an indication the Saudi’s are ready to give up on
the Sunni cause in Syria, given the Assad victory in Homs and the rumors of a
pending settlement over Aleppo?
Well, these are the exactly the type of baseless statements
Western leaders “experts” love to give
their Bosses… why…. there might even be a promotion in the works!!!!!
Now, let’s look at this “reach out” from the Persian’s
viewpoint!
When word of this ‘breakthrough” made it to Tehran, I wonder
how many of them began to run up and down the halls using the word, “Breakthrough”???
Yep…. None!
Did the Persians put an ounce of belief into this statement?
Nope.
And do you know why, because they understand they were not
the intended target.
An airplane arrival… a few photographs and a few words on
the future of the region that is what will come of this “breakthrough”!
Here is all we really
need to understand.
The details of Saudi’s actions are known by the Saudis and
only the Saudis.
The West will have to rely on the inputs from their “experts”
who are looking for that next talking head gig or perhaps a GS 15 slot in DoS
or the intelligence agencies.
Oh, as I've said before; there is one groups that may just
have all the answers….. the Oil industry.
Who knows what about the Saudi’s intentions is based on
money and money is based on oil.
Now, what these oil folks know is understood for only one
reason….profit and profits are based on the power of knowledge.
Do these knowledge holders / power holders/ run to tell their
secrets to Western Political Leaders?
That’s about as big a mystery as the inner workings of the Saudi
kingdom.
