Bush Administration plans to sell terroris saudi arabia 20 billion dollars in arms, but none dare call that sponsoring terrorism.
Wow thats just perfect, talk about sponsoring terrorism
Kind of funny how our president wants to sell a state that sponsors terrorism weapons and he dares call other people terrorists for doing the same.
I wonder how that is going to comeback on us in the future
"blowback anyone?"

True, but at the end of the day, I think I'd rather be damned because we don't and tell the House of Saud to go pack sand. |

All of the sept 11 hijackers were saudi nationals maybe this so called war on terror should be reconsidered and saudi should be under the scope |

Mohamed Atta was Egyptian. Marwan al-Shehhi was United Arab Emiritian (I have no idea what word is used there). Fayez Banihammad was United Arab Emiritian. Ziad Jarrah was Lebanese. The other fourteen were indeed Saudi though. |

Just curious, but I wonder whether you can answer a question for me:
Which nation was in violation of a ceasefire with the US for 12 years prior to the resumption of hostilities that led to where we are today?
A) Saudi Arabia
B) Iraq
C) Detroit |

what does that matter?
we went there because saddam had WMD...and then after no WMD were found, we went there to "free" the iraqi people, so the violation of the cease-fire is of no relevance. |

do you not see what is going on here with mr. bush's mid-east trip?
he is going there to sell a war on iran...he went to israel and got them to agree to a two-state solution which he is going to try to use as leverage to get other arab nations to turn their heads when he invades iran...he is giving the saudis the weapons in exchange for their approval and financial support, because the saudis have the most to gain with a war-torn iran. |
