    The deep-state’s favorite dictatorship is going to have to adjust. Like McVay.

    I assume that ‘adjustment’ is going to mean lots more money for defense contractors and weapons builders and privatized CIA torturers, etc and so forth.

    The Drone Strikes on the Saudi Oil Facilities Have Changed Global Warfare

    The devastating attack on Saudi oil facilities by drones and missiles not only transforms the balance of military power in the Middle East, but marks a change in the nature of warfare globally.

    On the morning of 14 September, 18 drones and seven cruise missiles – all cheap and unsophisticated compared to modern military aircraft – disabled half of Saudi Arabia’s crude oil production and raised the world price of oil by 20 per cent.

    This happened despite the Saudis spending $67.6bn (£54bn) on their defence budget last year, much of it on vastly expensive aircraft and air defence systems, which notably failed to stop the attack. The US defence budget stands at $750bn (£600.2bn), and its intelligence budget at $85bn (£68bn), but the US forces in the Gulf did not know what was happening until it was all over… see link
