I agree. She's drowning in the koolaid. I wish someone would discover a cost effective suitable synthetic replacement for oil.

Where was the barf alert?
Hopefully the FBI has her on a watchlist.
Since she is deaf, dumb and blind to Islam's 1400 year old record of intolerance, mass murder and cultural genocide, I am not surprised at her assessment.
Some of us know better.
Islam must be destroyed.
I second the motion!
It would be silly to list the human rights abuses of the the Saudis. It is silly to talk about their vicious cutting off of the limbs of thieves. The sheer amount of brutality inculcated into Saudi life is simply staggering. It is just a lesson to read the effects of the brainwashing by the abused.
"Islam must be destroyed."
I don't agree. But don't want to argue it now either.
I suspect it's those evil western vices that Saudi Arabia or any other Islamic country can't quite seem to work into the cultural diversity that Islam espouses, you know little things like women free to vote, drive, talk with or marry any man they choose, wear their hair the way they want to, show their face, etc...
Not to mention hot running water, toilets that flush, water you can drink, washing machines, dishwashers, large refrigerators, ice cubes, groceries filled to the brim with food selections, TV with more than one station to watch and radio with more than one station to listen to, newspapers, books, and magazines on every conceivable subject and voicing every conceivable opinion.....the list goes on and on. So, why doesn't your beloved S.A. have all this? Oh, yes, I forgot. Because they want to keep life 'pure'....
A quick read of some of her previous articles reveals that she does not necessarily accept that Iraqi troops were in fact massed on the Kuwaiti border, nor that Desert Storm was necessary even "if" they had been there.
She is somehow intent on the notion that America wants to execute a military takeover of "The Kingdom", she insists upon capitalising 'H' when referring to the "holy" cities of Mecca and Medina, and in general she is such an avowed apologist for Saudi Arabia and the middle east in general, and a "bash-America" first archetype that she is intellectually and emotionally beyond salvage.
IMHO after reading snippets of her writings (which include diatribes of thin scholarship against Judeo-Christianity, comparing it to Al Qaeda) she must almost certainly be an anti-semite, of the camp that believes Jews had more to do with 9/11 than Arabs, and that America brought 9/11 upon herslf in part by our actions in having troops on Saudi land.
I would say ignoring her might be the best policy, in hopes that the less of an audience she has, the less inclined to purvey her poison she might be. But she has served in an advisory role for many business concerns, and albeit her "expertise" is self-styled, there is still an audience of well-heeled folk who read and listen to her incintrovertibly biased screeds and screechings.
So it is that she thinks she is important, and that her opinion should shape policy and affect we, the great unwashed.
Assassination would be one possible remedy for the problem she herself is. Any volunteers out there?
Oh riiiiight. The mutawa can beat people who litter with sticks just like they beat women who accidently display their ankles while walking through the souks.
The author obviously didn't visit the same Saudi Arabia that I lived in for 3 years.
How can a 25 year old male go to flight school, learn how to fly a jet airplane. and immolate himself and 3,000 others in crashing his jet into the world trade center for what? 72 virgins in paradise? Unloved by one woman here, he is corrupted by a fatuous dream.
As a baby he is loved by his mother. As he grows and begins to resemble his father, who has mistreated his mother "as part of his religion", his mother denies him her love.
The 9/11 hijackers were half Saudi. Maybe Tanya C. Hsu can explain.
Certainly not as humane as beheading women and men in the public squares. Or beating schoolgirls who are "improperly dressed" as they try to escape their burning school.
She's delusional. But as a peacenik Lefty, that's no suprise.
I agree. She's drowning in the koolaid. I wish someone would discover a cost effective suitable synthetic replacement for oil.
Oh say, can you not see?
Americans fought the British Empire for their freedom and created the greatest, freest nation the world has ever known.
The caravan-looting robber gang of Saud received from the British Empire the patrimony of the Hashemite (who were later given 80% of the "Jewish National Homeland" as a consolation prize), as the loot for helping the British drive out the Turks (or the British helping them drive out the Turks).
she's a "senior analyst"
I thought she was a high school senior with kind of naivete
oi vay
wow I should be able to get a similar job easy peasy without any high faluting degrees
No human being on the entire planet in the 21st Century (unless they are muslim) would write such utter garbage and believe a word of it. She's on a retainer.
I've been quiet lately but this is truly propaganda worthy of "Little Joe" Goebbels, himself!
Yes, of course the Saudis are so enlightened...a gleaming jewel of understanding in the MidEast...that's why they destroy the non-Wahhabi Korans of pilgrims to Mecca, and why Christians are the underclass.
Tell ya what, Toots...tell your story walking...walk right back to the wonderful paradise of Saudiland and stay there.
