Putin Orders Saudi Arabia “Destroyed” After Volgograd Terror Strikes

Posted by EU Times on Dec 30th, 2013 // 9 Comments

A grim memorandum circulating in the Kremlin today written by Federal Security Services (FSB) Director Alexander Bortnikov outlining the new security measures being put into place throughout Russia ordered by President Putin a few hours ago in response to the deadly Volgograd terror attacks further warns that Russia’s leader has, in effect, vowed to “destroy” Saudi Arabia as he personally is blaming them for this horrific crime against humanity.
The Arabians donate $3billion to Lebanon where the terrorists are training. And, what's even grimmer is he appears to be siding with Iran – which is probably the biggest terrorist financier of all. Read the full article with links @ Putin Orders Saudi Arabia

Fighting back against Saudi Arabia, the anchor of the petro-dollar system, is going to have some interesting consequences.

As for the Saudis, it will be many more months before they can re-escalate tensions in Syria, so they'll do what they please in the meantime to show their displeasure with Russia for brokering the recent peace deal.

Putin suggested to the Saudis that they abandon “sectarian instigations and supporting terrorism, because it is a double edged sword that will rebound inside Saudi Arabia and gather momentum in a manner that you will not be able to control.”

If Putin attacks, I suppose it could have a ripple affect throughout the Muslim world, and perhaps, some will affiliate it with religious connotations, which would benefit the US. I imagine the Russians will reveal some intel that shows Saudi leadership in a compromising position rather than attacking.

Putin suggested to the Saudis that they abandon “sectarian instigations and supporting terrorism, because it is a double edged sword that will rebound inside Saudi Arabia and gather momentum in a manner that you will not be able to control.”

This quote is very disconcerting for the US. Considering the history of the foreign policy and domestic policy issues at hand, why would the current administration try to further destroy the US economy without any viable solution? They continue to lie to its constituents.

No way is Iran a bigger supporter of terrorism than our government in America. Course the ones our government supports are freedom fighters. (until they go after Americans.)

Saudis offer Russia secret oil deal if it drops Syria

As-Safir said Prince Bandar pledged to safeguard Russia’s naval base in Syria if the Assad regime is toppled, but he also hinted at Chechen terrorist attacks on Russia’s Winter Olympics in Sochi if there is no accord. “I can give you a guarantee to protect the Winter Olympics next year. The Chechen groups that threaten the security of the games are controlled by us,” he allegedly said.

Prince Bandar went on to say that Chechens operating in Syria were a pressure tool that could be switched on an off. “These groups do not scare us. We use them in the face of the Syrian regime but they will have no role in Syria’s political future.”

Change your avatar.

I used to find it shocking when liberals called the US a "terrorist state". Now I have come to expect such lunacy, as it is pervasive among liberals.

Russia got it's ass kicked by Afghans that have an 18th century mentality and who used sticks and stones to run the Russians out of Afghanistan. It may have taken the Afghans 10 years to do it, but they did it. And Putin thinks he can destroy Saudi Arabia?? LOL

Terrorism widely existed and active since the beginning of the 20th century in Russia. Maybe Putin should have worked on cleaning up the terrorism that has existed in his country for the past century? Although no one claimed responsibility for the Volgograd bombings I highly doubt they were Saudis that did it. As if Russia doesn't have it's own home grown terrorist groups that operate on their own.

True, but theres a huge difference between "take over and hold" and "destroy"

Guess what? Russia CAN destroy Saudia Arabia. There is a HUGE difference between fighting a insurgency, and fighting a country. Its FAR easier to fight a country.

PS-they didn't use sticks and stones, they used a LOT of American and European weapons supplied by the west as this was widely seen as a proxy war during the cold war.

I'm aware of US and European assistance. The same people we trained and armed are now our enemy. bin Laden was a creation of the US.

If Russia attacked SA it would never be a one-on-one war but would start a global war. Just based on allies, Russia doesn't have too many and as a country doesn't have anything to offer the world. SA allies will join forces to protect what is in their interest.

Saudia Arabia had allies because they had oil. Currently the United states produces more oil then it uses unlike in the past. In all honesty they've been complete jerks to everyone. Theyve actively refused to help us in Iraq, while at the same time trying to get us to attack Iran. They are NOT a NATO ally. Theyve used aid to muslims financially, and aid to terrorist organizations, if the article this refers to is correct they've overplayed their hand horrifically, and Russia will hurt them. And I dont blame Russia at all.

So who exactly so you think is going to come help Saudi arabia? China maybe?
