This House of Saud propagandist can't make up his mind: does Saudi government make any decision without US advice? Yes, or no, damn it?

"Usually the Saudis will not make any decision against U.S. advice or interests. I think we're past this stage. If it isn't in our interests, we feel no necessity to bow to their wishes," said Mustafa Alani, an Iraqi analyst at the Gulf Research Centre in Jeddah with close ties to the Saudi security establishment."
