Whats the harm in humility?

I was told, that you catch more flies with honey, than you do with salt.

wow, thats sad. Humility to a monarch that opresses his people. I guess the Queen of England did not warrant the humility. Her boys only died alongside ours in the wash of the Normandy shores and African desserts.

I dont get it. We have had a very chummy relationship with Saudi Arabia since our geologist discovered oil there eighty years ago. Billions, if not trillions, exhanged. Lots of Texas oilmen got rich off capital investments in Saudi Arabia and vice versa with regard to Financial services in this country. And now were supposed to treat their King (who is no ceremonial figure head like the Queen of England) like some third world chump. Its the epicenter of islam, which, by the way, places considerable emphasis on humility. Hubris is not heralded as a virtue.

Well thats is certainly true, they were killed by germans. So what would you have him do to Angela Merkel...put her in the headlock till she taps out.

You don't show humility to someone who barely tolerates us. The king shouldn't bow to O'Bama or the reverse.
