We are sad to report that despite the change in administration, the "new" CIA is exactly the same as the "old" one.

In a stunning mockery of fact, either real, "alternative" or gratuitously made up, on Friday the Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef bin Abdulaziz al-Saud, who is also Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior, received a medal from the CIA for his distinct intelligence-related counter-terrorism work and his contributions to ensure international peace and security, Al Arabiya proudly reported.

The British government has claimed it cannot halt its weapons sales to Saudi Arabia because of “serious political ramifications” Halting arms sales to Saudi Arabia over concerns that British-made weapons could be used to break humanitarian laws in Yemen would have “serious political ramifications”, a London court heard on Wednesday.

Saudi Arabia are bribing American veterans to help block a new federal law that allows the families of 9/11 victims to sue the Saudi regime for sponsoring the attacks on September 11.  Using misinformation and cash, the Saudi’s are coercing U.S. military veterans to stop the Saudi monarchy from being held responsible for one of the most devastating attacks on U.S. soil.

There was cheering among the libertarian community when, in the last months of his administration, Barack Obama decided to halt some arms sales to Saudi Arabia, following "allegations" of war crimes perpetrated by the kingdom in Yemen.

Saudi Arabia’s capital Riyadh was rocked by an unexpected surface-t0-surface ballistic missile launched by the Yemeni military in retaliation for relentless and ongoing Saudi-U.S. incursions into their country. Yemen made the announcement of their first ever attack on the capital of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in a statement released by the official state news agency on Sunday.
