Hey, he's a king, he thinks it is all for him and his. We beat the Japs, the Nazis, the commies and now we are back to beheading Kings. Good.

Then again, privately, they may be sharing information
with us that will do away with their enemies (and ours). The FBI war on the Mafia,in the 80's, had alot of instances where Mob guys fed the FBI info on their bitter enemies, so the FBI would grab them and the people with a grudge could get rid of a rival....without "hitting" them themselves....
Let's not rush to judgement on this one....Saudi duplicity
isn't likely to fool the team of Rumsfeld, Cheney,
Powell, Rice.. Bush 41 and Bush 43! Even denying us their
bases for an attack on Irag doesn't mean a whole lot. I think the Bush team, as opposed to the touchy-feely Clinton regime....doesn't care PUBLIC pronouncements of solidarity. The most valuable asset in a war against terrorist is information...which I'll bet the Saudis are supplying a wealth of!
