1. Yup. Repukes are jealous of how all that Saudi Elite money has
skewed and messed up many great nations of the world. That is what they want. To be the uber-elites. That nobody can touch. And everyone else has to be a democracy. Except in Canada. We all of a sudden are not supposed to be voting on the domestic issues. The Neocon conservative Party in Canada keeps looking for a scandal or some 'other' issue to have an election on. Because they know they can't win on their issues: undo medicare, get people to be loyal only locally and not nationally, tribalism, Christian rights, etc. etc.

Exact copy of the the plan for the USA. And totally tribal.

2. I think Bush looks to them as a model
He wants a christian Saudi Arabia. Where the "elite" rule, the gap between rich and poor is staggering, and the poor filthy masses are kept ignorant and easily manipulated by fundamentalism.

4. Boy, do they wish
It's a Republican dream: economic monarchy and patriarchal theocracy.
