Saudi FM Jubeir refused to take calls from Kerry about severing relations with Iran.

Kerry was forced to speak with the Saudi defense minister.

The DF told him it was out of his hands.


Bitch slap.

Re: The World at War
Saud orders all Saudi citizens to leave Iran immediately.
 Quoting: JazzyG


I posted this in another thread. I watched a documentary the other day that focused on the Shi'ite versus Sunni wars that began in approximately 11AD. It was during this period that assassination was first used as a primary mode of war and the first time terrorist cells were created. It was also the first time Shi'ites and Sunnis began assassinating each other's clerics.

They have not evolved much since 11AD.

The lines are clear cut from what I have gathered. It's going to be in the hands of the proxies once orders of battle are set. Then we shall see the major powers get openly involved.

The Straits of Hormuz should be looked at. Iran can sink Saudi tankers and supers. I wonder will the USN make a heavy presence in the region in the name of "freedom of navigation"...

Re: The World at War
The UN envoy for Syria will be heading to Saudi Arabia and then Iran.
 Quoting: JazzyG


I posted this up on Janey's thread in terms of where I see things going.

My take on the situation is this:

1.) All diplomatic ties have been severed amongst the Sunni ruled nation-states against the Shia aka Persian (Iran). That was bound to happen due to an Ayatollah being executed at the behest of a dementia ridden King Salman of the KSA.

2.) All forms of commerce, trade, and cooperation have been cut.

3.) Soon we will all bear witness to a major increase of the Proxy Wars. Pay strict attention at the Shia-dominated forces in Yemen. They've made serious gains inside the southern regions of the KSA. Expect that to heat up to the point where it goes hot.

4.) All eyes will be on Iran due to the free navigation of the Straits of Hormuz. They'll be targeting Saudi oil tankers and supers.

5.) Expect to see a rapid build-up of foreign military forces in the region, as the major powers ramp up their proxies to the point where the big kids step into the playground to fight.

6.) Oil. Oil. Oil. The global markets will crumble and panic once it all goes wild weasel.

That's where I see things going for the time being. Everything is subject to change as you all know. That being said, what I hypothesized is strictly probability, not a certainty.

Stay frosty.
