Reply to comment by squidking78 in Saudis take control of US augmented reality company Magic Leap by MicroSofty88

I did, which is why I know the Sauds were very happy with Saddam during the Iran-Iraq war and then relations deteriorated rapidly after with borders being closed, embassies removed on both side when Saddam turned on Kuwait next. It's almost like the Sauds no longer trusted Saddam to do their bidding and wanted him gone with a puppet government in place. What exactly happened again?

Maybe read up yourself.

Newsflash: countries have issues with other countries all the time. Now look into Iran and Saudi Arabia. Little bigger differences there.

All you’re doing is trying to defend the indefensible by trying to say “but look at all these other places that also do some less bad stuff!”

doesn’t change Saudi Arabia being deplorable. Guess when they got rid of slavery.
