    Let the Saudis drag us? No. Bolton and his clique are doing the dragging. They've been tugging and pulling in this direction since the second war with Iraq. Assuming they didn't regard that war as just a means to set-up to take on Iran.

    The US is evacuating all but essential staff from its embassy and consulate in Iraq as tensions rise between the US and Iraq’s neighbour Iran in the volatile Gulf region.
