No, thankfully, Bush no longer has the power to arm anyone.
But, how do you know that Disneydude isn't already holding himself?
a reasonable person would opine that any help we can get to these Sunni Tribes.. our allies against ISIS... would be helpful.
If Bush can help aid these people against ISIS in his limited capacity... well, that's a good thing... more power to him.
ISIS are Sunni. Shia are our allies against ISIS.
Shia (Hezbollah) are also our enemies in Lebanon and Syria. Iran is Shia.
And Saudi is Sunni. So were the 9/11 hijackers.

I am reaching the point where none of them are trustworthy.

Me too. I don't trust any of that region. I recall reading something where the Russians were talking about how they lost Afghanistan and they basically said you could never make alliances because alliances were always being betrayed.
Finally! We've only known that Saudi Arabia was complicit in the 9/11 attacks since 9/12.
What do you mean "finally"? I have had great distrust of SA for years now, ask anyone....The false need to maintain relations for oil is the biggest driver of our relationship, and should be cut in favor of more development of our own resources.
Nicely demonstrates the insanity of US policy in the Middle East.
It's a multi-belligerent war. Reminds me of 16th, 17th & 18th century Europe.
