The Stealth Saudi Arabian Takeover of America

Imagine what might have happened, if in the wake of Pearl Harbor, the Japanese had claimed that the attack was a rogue operation of which they had no knowledge. Imagine that there was a great Japanese lobbying machine that had the ear of both parties and the President agreed that there was insufficient evidence of Japanese involvement in the attack. Imagine if he had also declared that the attack was an aberration, that Japanese culture and religion were peaceful and profound. Would the denial of Japanese intentions only have ended when Japanese troops landed on the West coast?Unfortunately for the Japanese, they had no great lobbying machine in the US in 1941. They also did not hold close to a trillion dollars in investment in the US. Most of all they were not sitting on the world’s largest known easily recoverable oil reserves (the Athabascar tar sands in Canada and the oil shale in Colorado, Utah and Wyoming hold similar reserves but are less easily recoverable). In the immediate wake of 9/11, the comparisons to Pearl Harbor seemed obvious. In fact, 9/11 was an even more insidious attack than Pearl Harbor. Whereas Pearl Harbor targeted the nation’s navy, 9/11 targeted US civilians and the nation itself. While the events were profoundly similar, the aftermaths could not have been more different. Domestically, Saudi Arabia is actively subverting the US through its support of Wahhabi mosques and Islamic organizations to the tune of an estimated $75 billion in the years since 2004.

That the war in Yemen has not led to the outrage expressed over Vietnam is largely due to the less than stellar media coverage, no doubt due in part to Sa
