SAUDI ARABIA HAS NEVER BEEN OUR FRIEND







Everyone is flabbergasted because the Saudis just murdered an American citizen.   How many times do you have to take a blow to the head before you realize that the person hitting you is not your friend?

Saudi business men financially supported Osama bin Laden – himself a Saudi.   Fifteen of the nineteen hijackers that attacked us on 9-11 were Saudis.    Saudi Arabia is a fundamentalist religious nation that allows public beheadings and stoning of unfaithful wives. 

The idea that Saudis uphold our ideals in the Middle East and therefore are our allies is a Faustian bargain.    

I know the Bushes love them because of the oil connection; but it makes you wonder what other influences they have cultivated that have allowed the U.S. to look the other way?

  1. Our government is thinking, "what's one journalists life?" They don't care.

  2. If the Saudis weren't rolling in oil, they'd be persona non grata all over the world.

COMMENT: Ben Franklin said, "I imagine a man must have a good deal of vanity who believes, and a good deal of boldness who affirms, that all doctrines he holds are true, and all he rejects are false."
