Why oh why are the Bushes such apologists for Saudi inspried Wahhabism?
------
Because they are scared to death of the POLITICAL (economic) consequences of a big tiff with the Saudis and oil pump lines. It makes me sick. All of Washington is making me sick. They quit working FOR the American people decades ago.
Bush sends troops into Iraq while the right hand man of the ruler of Saudi Arabia (Prince Abdullah) exhorts young Saudi men to go to Iraq and kill US Troops.
He's captured on video doing this, with Abdullah sitting right next to him.
Then, Bush kisses Abdullah, holds his hand, calls him "friend" and a "great ally on the WoT."
Makes me want to puke.
What consequences? None that a proper application of neutron weapons wouldn't cure.
Those who spend huge amounts of money and effort promoting war against America, and fund terrorist attacks against America have, to use a Biblical expression, "sown the wind". Those who have so done may expect the whirl wind.
Hopefully, in another generation, school children will be asking "Teacher, what was an Arab?"
