Remarkable Character

As I've written before, many people have tried to explain to me the realpolitik of our relationship with Saudi Arabia, and I just don't get it.

And, whenever I write something like that, people condescendingly write in to tell me "it's obvious" or similar. If it was so obvious everyone wouldn't be telling me different things.

I think I understand the quasi-official State Department reasoning, but it's still fucking absurd.
