The S in BRICS
The switchover of Saudi is a BIG move. In the '80s Saudi was our main external tool in breaking the Soviet system and installing Soros in Russia. Saudi worked with us to create al-Qaeda as a weapon in Afghanistan, and Saudi manipulated oil prices to ruin Russia's oil exports.

The new ruler MBS is exerting necessary force against the older princes, following Sharia principles. Punishing corrupt use of money by taking the money, not by jailing the corruptors. (I suspect these takings are at least partly responsible for the sudden breakup of our own long-standing corruption in media and Hollywood. These princes own major pieces of media and Hollywood. When princes turn to paupers, their power disappears.)

MBS is also starting to deal with Russia in normal commercial ways, buying Russian weapons instead of USA STRONG weapons. Weapons systems tend to lock you into a relationship with the supplier, so this is not just a single purchase.

Most interesting from a Graybill viewpoint: MBS is opening channels to Russia and China to start developing Saudi uranium and thorium mines.

Reviewing Graybill's Law yet again:

The people of Free-Trade countries are therefore driven into the few occupations which are left, by reason of the destruction of their formerly more varied pursuits. Hence those diversified talents with which men are endowed are not developed but remain latent and unused, an incalculable detriment to the prosperity of their respective countries.

Under the USA STRONG empire, Saudi's sole skill was oil. Developing other skills is the deepest form of rebellion against USA STRONG. Some countries didn't get around to development until we forced them with sanctions. Saudi is breaking Graybill BEFORE it was forced.

So far this heresy hasn't been punished. In fact we no longer have the power to punish Graybill violators. Russia and China have been training and encouraging Graybill heresies everywhere, and it's too late for us to stop the enlightenment. We will screech and skrawk but it won't matter.

The S in BRICS will soon be redefined as Saudi. South Africa is still locked into the ANC setup that we imposed on them in the '80s. Reform may come at some point, but it's not happening now.
