![]() ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and ...the only place on the face of the earth that misses the Ottoman Empire.... agreed on the need to set up a "strategic cooperation council" to strengthen military, economic and investment cooperation between the two countries, Saudi Foreign Minister Adel al-Jubeir said on Tuesday. "The meeting produced a desire to set up a high-level strategic cooperation council between the two countries," Jubeir told a joint news conference with his Turkish counterpart after talks in the Saudi capital, Riyadh, between Former King of the Arabians, Sheikh of the Burning Sands Abdullah ... Now a dead guy... and Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan. He said the council will deal with security, military, economic, trade, energy and investment between the two countries. |
