Can't imagine why this woman would marry a Saudi after her own childhood experience. Apparently it is the law in Saudi Arabia that a father has custody of his children once they reach a certain age.

This woman married a Saudi because she was under the authority of her Saudi father in Saudi Arabia. Her mother had married a Saudi and returned with him to his country after her two daughters were born in the US making them American citizens.

The mother left Saudi Arabia years ago after begging the US to help in getting out her daughters who were AMERICAN CITIZENS. Now it is this daughter who is seeking to leave with HER children.

The State Department has been rightly castigated by Newt Gingrich for its slavish obesqueious toadying to the Saudis and the Arab world.

She did not choose this marriage, it was forced upon her, what part of arranged marriage did you not understand. She is being held prisoner & Bush is doing nothing. I wonder if he would feel different if it was one of his own daughters?
