Bush's Friends, The Saudis

This is by far one of the most interesting things about 9/11 and everything that has happened since.

Does anyone really have a clue what the Bushites are up to? Because it sure as hell has nothing to do with their stated goals?

Is it ever a good idea to have a president whose family is so enter-twined with the heads of state of another country?

Will we ever know the whole truth about who played what roles in the nightmare of deception; smoke and mirrors, tear gas in the eyes, fog of war, whatever one wished to call it, we have been living in for the past 6 years?

Old Dead-eye was "summoned" by the Saudi Royals not all that long ago? Seems they were not at all happy with the status quo of chaos and civil war in Iraq. The official leak pretty much said that if the U.S. couldn't stop a Shia take-over of Iraq, they would be forced to. Seems they are scared of Iran, too, or so the story goes.

Bush's Friends, The Saudis [Oliver Willis: Like Kryptonite To Stupid]:

On 9/11, several Saudi Arabian citizens who were part of the Al Qaeda network killed over 3,000 innocent people at the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and on United 93. Saudi Arabia faced no repercussions for their role and President Bush responded by holding hands with an old family friend (They've got numerous business dealings with his father and him in the past and I'm sure in the future. Apparently that Saudi money helps keep the family compound in Kennebunkport in tight shape).

In the last few days we've been subject to a p.r. campaign by the administration and their allies in the media focused on supposed Iranian funding of the Shiite faction in the Iraqi civil war. But at the same time, Saudi Arabia is funding the Sunni side. Once again, Saudi Arabia gets a pass.
