It's funny the Saudis came out and denounced ISIS complaining about how much of a threat they are, now he is saying publicly ISIS are a threat to the US
- "I am certain that after a month they will reach Europe and, after another month, America"
Now considering Iraq and Saudi Arabia share a border, shouldn't the saudis be mounting offensive military operations against ISIS?
It's not like they don't have the resources. Saudi Arabias military capabilities according to wiki;
