Saudi Arabia crys Poor
As an update on the world's collective insanity, news is in that Saudi Arabia has declared its intention to demand Western Aid should world dependence on Oil decrease.
“Saudi Arabia has led a quiet campaign during these and other negotiations — demanding behind closed doors that oil-producing nations get special financial assistance if a new climate pact calls for substantial reductions in the use of fossil fuels.”
"We are among the economically vulnerable countries," Al Sabban told The Associated Press on the sidelines of the talks ahead of negotiations in Copenhagen in December for a treaty to replace the Kyoto Protocol, which expires in 2012.
"This is very serious for us," he continued. "We are in the process of diversifying our economy but this will take a long time. We don't have too many resources”
Yea and the Stump hearts simply bleeds for the poor bugger me Saudi Nation, not like they have been known for excesses over the years or the exporting of hard line nutcases to previously peaceful nations. Does anyone still want to argue that the upcoming Climate Change talks in Copenhagen are anything but the usual “berate the West and give us cash now” gathering of collective tyrants, idiots and supplicants.
It’s the Stump’s view that IF this issue of Climate Change is so serious then it’s time responsible nations stopped this fraudulent black arm band view of history and started demanding some real and concrete changes from the usual “AID” vampires.
Perhaps in our local region, its time proof was demanded of one major government environmental project that is not racked with corruption and failure. Cannot do it? Then spend the money on those nations who can make the leap from their hip pocket to the people and the environment.
