A particularly fact-avoiding article from WaPo writer Max Fischer:

Six reasons the U.S. and Saudi Arabia are moving apart

Ever since the United States and Saudi Arabia fell into something of an alliance in the late 1970s, the world’s most unlikely partnership has had lots of down moments. […]

As if there was no FDR and Ibn Saud meeting in 1945.

Continuing:

(6) Oil: Declining cooperation. As the U.S. starts to produce more of its own energy resources and import less from the Middle East, it has less interest in Saudi oil. And Saudi Arabia is selling more of its oil to China, which just became the world’s largest net importer. Still, oil prices are set on a global market, so as a net importer, the U.S. would like to see Saudi oil continue to flow.

Umm, just no.

First off, confusing all of US energy production with “oil”. Then, apparently not knowing that for many decades KSA has been a very minor source of petroleum that the US imported.
