You understand Saudi invests in many US companies. Where was your outrage when the bought into Disney and Facebook? markets.businessinsider.com/…

Saudi Arabia plowed billions into US stocks including Boeing, Disney, and Facebook last quarter

The kingdom's sovereign-wealth fund revealed almost $10 billion in US holdings, up from about $2.2 billion at the end of December.

I don't care. Either way we are being policed by USG, who isn't exactly dedicated to human freedom either. They are just concealing it better. Only slightly better.
