That's interesting. Do you have a link?

@Bellum_Romanum, are you familiar?

when you actually read this thing correctly. Saudis were keen that US recognize the Kingdom and US pledge but US waited untill 1931 to recognize the kingdom. so who were giving them intelligence about US. only those who already have interest in the region. and every thing happened after that point toward that bargain. if there was No Soviet Union and this communism. (they didnot use Soviet name) its likely this Arab/US alliance would have turn there guns on Iran/Turkey. Europe was flat broke after war to have any worth.

The Historic Meeting between Saudi King Abdulaziz, US President Roosevelt​

On Its 77th Anniversary, Asharq Al-Awsat Recalls the Historic Meeting between the Two Leaders​

Before that famous encounter, King Abdulaziz had recovered in April 1913 Al-Ahsa from the Ottomans in a preemptive step to block any British-Ottoman agreement to share influence in the Arabian Peninsula. The Anglo-Ottoman agreement was signed in late July 1913, according to which the Ottoman Empire ceded the coast of the Persian Gulf to Britain.
King Abdulaziz had imposed himself on the regional map and put the forces competing for influence before a fait accompli. He was keen on his country’s sovereignty, which made him constantly express friendship and try to avoid confrontation despite his distaste for British policies.

He was also watching - before the outbreak of World War II - American commercial interest in the region, even though the United States did not have the actual political means and saw the Middle East as a British area of influence primarily. Yet, he kept his political options open.

While King Abdulaziz was laying the foundations of his foreign policy, he expressed his keenness to diversify his relations with various countries in a way that enhances Saudi interests. After entering the Hijaz in 1924, influential states began to recognize the nascent kingdom, starting with Russia in 1926 and followed by European countries.

King Abdulaziz asked Roosevelt for friendship and support, and noted that his country was not under occupation or mandate and that he wanted to remain independent
.

After that, the president gave his pledge to King Abdulaziz - which he confirmed in a letter he sent on April 5, 1945, one week before his death - that he would not engage in any hostile acts against the Arabs, and that his government would not change its policy towards Palestine without prior consultations with the Arabs and Jews. For the King, the verbal assurances were then an agreement, and did not expect the sudden death of Roosevelt.

India-China: Tactical détente, strategic differences​

Go tell that to Palki Sharma? Who constantly bemoan everything China. There's a recent report from you know who and where that discussed CHINA STEALING WESTERN WORKERS (Chinese folks) to work for companies like HUAWEI among others.

The irony of that reporting isn't lost on that lady's brain considering that every American companies C.E.O. that happened to come from India is celebrated as some kind of showcase to Indian super duper genius talents without admitting the cold hard truth that those people's success isn't India's success. If we apply the same logic she used then that would mean: the U.S. has been STEALING WORKERS from all over the world, especially from India right.
