"Either You're With Us Or You're Against Us"

[Sweetpea]

Why aren't people screaming at this Saudi connection to 9/11 after the war in Afghanistan and the mess in Iraq? Surely, the administration knew about the Saudi connection yet they chose to focus on Iraq. All this videofootage of Uday and Qusay is a major distraction. We can't let this guy look like a hero again to anyone. Yes, Uday and Qusay were gangsters ,in the sense they destroyed lives, but we shouldn't give them a public hanging and let the Ken Lays , Saudi financers, etc....off the hook.

1. I agree

This is perhaps the most puzzling aspect of what's happened over the last two years - why the Saudis are given the red carpet treatment even though we know they not only bankrolled the 9/11 attacks, but it was their countrymen who carried it out. I'm usually not one to spout on about the situation in Iraq being all about oil, but when it comes to the Saudis, there isn't much more to it. I guess it must be the dynamics of the sluggish economy that make it difficult to tell them where to go, but I don't put too much faith in the argument that the Saudi Kingdom is one of our few stable allies in the region.

2. Omitting the Saudis

Is like trying to explain the sinking of the Titanic without referring to icebergs. According to the portions of the report that were released, some things just sort of, you know, happen.

3. We've gotta show America that Bush is in bed with King Fahd.

They need convincing.

4. look

its like this . . . the dumb will believe whatever bush says no matter what circumstances. those who have the slightest inkling of a functional brain can see through the BS. the only way someone didn't know that saudis are terrorists in cahoots with al qaeda and other networks is either they do not follow news whatsoever, they are all over bush's jockey strap, or they are retarded.
