It's gonna take a longgg time before EV's are fully realized. Charging stations would have to outnumber gas stations damn near to start. It does suck that we have to play with the Saudi's re: oil, but what else can be done?

Where is the infrastructure to support these EVs? Blackouts happen now, imagine when everyone starts charging. Pipe dreams they sell as reality.. smh
This is why I say we need to pump tje brakes on EVs. All they do is make people more dependent on the electrical grid. The support infrastructure just isn't there.

what will those arabs do once the modern world fully embraces EV's?

their days are numbered.
EV's arent the answer either.

with more alarming news that EV's arent even that much healthier for the environment (batteries) and that the power grid is already struggling with the few EVs out there AND that people are now learning that companies like Tesla charge more during prime hours which makes people paranoid that itll just be right to current gas prices (so you arent even saving money), im not positive EV's make it the dominant driving force in the 10 years America is planning around.

Dark Brandon needs to withdraw our remaining troops out of Saudi, let Putin defend them from Iran

We have about 2-3k there including defense contractors. The remaining equipment I believe will stay in Saudi hands but the maintenance of this equipment isn’t possible nor the inoperability. They don’t have the techs nor IP’s to successfully continue thaad systems, Patriot missile defense systems etc. China has been providing a decent amount of UAV support and systems to them.

Again Saudi’s aren’t dumb, so you have to ask yourself why they would do this?

They’ve struck a deal with someone in the region or China/Russia to provide security services for them.

MBS hasn’t overplayed their hand. There’s something that is happening that we aren’t privy to.

again, let China and/or Russia defend them from Iran
China doesn't like to get in people's shyt and non-intervention is their official doctrine, so good luck
Russia's rag tag army is kinda busy right now, so good luck

One bad outcome I see is MBS selling all the shyt we sold them to Russia/China, or at least the tech specs and all that.
What would make Dark Brandon one of the GOATs is for him to back the Iranian protests and "assist" (CIA) with regime change there
The Iranian people are overwhelmingly pro-America and despise the mullahs and the ayatollah more than we do
Getting rid of the ayatollah would also solve the nuke issue and make Israel fall back
Imagine MBS in his palace getting the news that Iran and the US shook hands and left the beef in the past
