The Saudi's stumbling towards a freeze. Ya, that about sums it up. This is what happens when you turn your country over to a silver spoon fed 30 year old. As the Independent put it, "the BND, the German intelligence agency ... portrayed Saudi defence minister and Deputy Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ... as a political gambler who is destabilising the Arab world through proxy wars in Yemen and Syria." I'm hoping that cooler heads will prevail and we will see the PoO stabilize through an agreement to freeze. But I'll believe it when I see it.
