I think maybe it's time to declare war on a Middle Eastern Country
But this time maybe it should be Saudi Arabia.

-They have tons of connections to 9/11 as it was mostly people from their country that did it.

-They are a threat to peace in the Middle East more than most anyone else in the region

-They have the financial means to acquire nuclear weapons, and have the terrorists in their country to distribute them to

-They abuse and torture their own citizens and are a dictatorship run country where regular people have limited civil rights.

Sounds to me like a country that fits Bush's war paradigm.

Not to mention they are issuing threats to force us to stay in Iraq (although I think Cheney went there and forced them to issue that declaration to put those who want to withdrawal in a very tough spot).

We keep going over there overthrowing the wrong governments. The Saudis are the actual threat to America and peace in the Middle East.

Just a thought.

1. Yes. That's a fantastic idea.
Then we should invade every other country in the Middle East, kill their leaders, and convert them all to Christianity.

Or, you know, not.

3. LOL
Forgive my early morning snarkyness in the above post.

The Sauds last night pissed me off and knowing that Darth Cheney was behind it pissed me off more. :)

9. Actually, I don't even have one - I live in an apartment complex.....
:) But I guess technically, I have a huge communal backyard.

8. If the US allows Saudi to fund Sunni Insurgents
means US allows Saudi to fund suicide bombers.
