Little Rich Boys Playing With Their Toys

They are all around the world. They've got more money than they know what to do with. They are like a special club.

They like weapons. So, some of the rich kids sell weapons to those other rich kids that want the status symbol and the power that goes with it.

From Saudi Arabia, to Turkey, to the Philippines, to Israel, to North Korea, to Russia, to the United States, these little rich kids like to play their games. They like to kill journalists, and blow up oil refineries, and threaten their neighbors, and keep the money rolling.

Like an unlucky draw of history, they all seem to be playing their games at the same time?

They are greedy and adventurous.

It's a dirty job but somebody has to do it.

Why again are we responsible for defending Saudi Arabia?

narratives were going to be. Instantly the first narrative that came up was "Iran's attack on SA is disrupting the GLOBAL ECONOMY, therefore the UNITED STATES must immediately retaliate..."
