Arab Official: Saudis arming Syrian insurgents

Saudi Arabia's Taliban proxies

Recent Media reports suggest Saudi Arabia is launching a large scale initiative to arm the Syrian insurgents. AFP quoted a an unamed Arab offical:

“Saudi military equipment is on its way to Jordan to arm the Free Syrian Army,” he said. “This is a Saudi initiative to stop the massacres in Syria.”

Saudi Arabia's support for the Syrian insurgency is a worrying harbinger of what is to come if the Syrian insurgents and Muslim Brotherhood have their way.

Saudi Arabia is the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism and the planet's foremost purveyor of the most violent, anti-civilisational, misogynistic and hateful forms of Islam. It is one of the most repressive and dictatorial nations on the planet.

The fact that the Saudis are supporting the Syrian insurgents suggests there is an understanding that their vision for Syria is an extreme Islamist one to which the Saudis would be agreeable. History shows us that the Saudis only ever provide support for foreign insurgencies or organisations if it is in the furtherance of their tryannical, misogynistic and brutal form of Wahabi Islam.

The Saudis came to the same kind of understanding with the Taliban, Al Qaeda in Iraq and countless other Jihadist groups all over the world.

The fact that the Saudis are actively undermining Syria's national sovereignty and supporting terrorist groups demonstrates a terrible reality that the Western press has completely failed to understand.

The Saudis and other Islamist powers, while resisting change at home, are replacing secular regimes, like that in Syria, with brutal Islamist theocracies and dictatorships.

The fact that this is being done with Western support demonstrates extreme naivety of Western politicians who still struggle to understand the fact that the 'Arab Spring' has nothing to do with democracy, or any other noble value, and everything to do with Islam.
