they are funding the insurgents - yet BFEE and congresscriters still go after everyone else but the Saudi's - I don't get it - wasted lives and money - while * and BFEE kiss them and thier asshats - go figure -

We are training our children to be killers against everything christian and kissing the enemy - I am so fed up with this whole government.

Who were the smart senators with a brain who voted against IRAQ now with W and before with the father - those are the only ones we need to be considering to run this country - Dean was smart enough to call it and so was Kunich - who else?

1. Yes, and if anybody thinks Pelosi is going to
do her job, and find out why Bush did not want 9/11 to be investigated, you are probably mistaken.

We're about to find out who the real leaders are. This stuff MUST be addressed, and soon.

James Baker's law firm is representing the Saudis in a case brought against them by 9/11 families.
Must have been hard for him to allow that into the report.

2. I think that's a good question.

I think the case I have heard is that the gov of Saudi Arabia is pro-US - perhps because we're the best customer for oil and we give them lots of access to US industry. The large royal family who run things drink booze, smoke cigars and chase women, but the population, poor and religious, are Wahabbist Muslims - the most fundie of the lot.

To avoid a revolution they allow the madrassas and a limited number of terror training camps to exist as long as they don't do so too publicly and as long as they have no direct traceable ties to the state of S. Arabia.

The wahabbists get to foment Islamist revolution (in other countries) - the royal family gets to keep most of the oil proceeds - and the US gets to come to them when OPEC starts calling for cutting oil production to raise prices.

It's like a three way co-dependency.

But, I'm sure some others here might have better info than me. Hopefully, some of them will chime in.
