Meanwhile, on post-America's foreign-policy front . . .

Saudi Arabia is nobody's idea of a wonderful country.  However, it has been a staunch ally of the United States, and that has had important ramifications in our overall dealings with the middle east.  Now, it seems that the oil-rich kingdom is reconsidering the relationship on the most basic level, mainly because of the MEC's overtures to Iran and its fumbling of the Syrian matter.

And how is the Syrian civil war going?  It seems the momentum is presently with a not-too-worried Bashar Assad.
