FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda “They (American officials) on the one hand support democratic principles, on the other hand it is difficult for them to give up their strategic or jeopardize their strategic interest as was the case in Bahrain and it is the case now in Saudi Arabia,” Michael Maloof, a former Pentagon official, told Press TV.
Maloof went on to say that Saudi people could no longer trust the United States to support their democratic demands.
“The reason I think that the Saudis have really begun to branch out and take on their own initiatives is that they just have not trusted the United States any longer as a result of the experience with Mubarak and as a consequence they are really conducting their own policies now and the United States is sort of being caught off guard I think once again because if this thing really kicks into our heavy ground swell as the potential is there, the United States is going to have to deal with this sooner than later,” he said.
The comments came as Saudi protesters continue staging demonstrations against the violent policies of the Riyadh regime despite the crackdown by the Kingdom’s security forces.
Since February 2011, protesters have held demonstrations on an almost regular basis in Saudi Arabia, mainly in Qatif and the town of Awamiyah in Eastern Province, primarily calling for the release of all political prisoners, freedom of expression and assembly, and an end to widespread discrimination.
However, the demonstrations have turned into protest rallies against the Al Saud regime, especially since November 2011, when Saudi security forces killed five protesters and injured many others in Eastern Province.
Similar demonstrations have also been held in the capital, Riyadh, and the holy city of Medina over the past few weeks.
According to Human Rights Watch, the Saudi regime “routinely represses expression critical of the government.”
