What can be more hypocritical than a so called friend that is doing everything possible to destroy you? Before this war on terror ends we will have to deal with Saudi Arabia. I am convinced that by propping up this evil royal family we are doing great harm to the world.
I hate to be blunt but if I were in charge I would give the Saudi Arabian ruling thugs an ultimatum. You either quit fighting against us through subversion and extortion or our cruise missiles will take the war on radical Islam to their own mansions and yachts. They think they are immune from any threat because they black mail us with oil but one aircraft carrier group in just 20 minutes could send the entire ruling family to their just reward and probably have no impact on oil production. Perhaps you might think that an attack on this government would be unjustified. However, how many millions across the world have been killed because of funding from these Saudis? How many more are being brainwashed by their clerics that will lead to a greater slaughter in the future? Who knows, after the ultimatum is given they may even decide to modify their ways so we may not have to use the big stick we carry by the grace of God.
If not, once the royal family is out of the way the people who take power may think twice about further antagonizing us. The majority of the Saudi people might even thank us for getting rid of the greedy evil despots that were continually oppressing them and robbing them. If they continue to hate us at least we will know our enemies our are enemies and we will not continue to act like our worst enemy is our friends. It is absurd!

WANT to know a key reason why you’re being robbed at the gas pump? Well, my fellow Americans, you’re being punished – for giving Iraqis a chance at democracy.
The Saudis ordered President Bush not to remove Saddam. The last thing that the despotic bigots in Riyadh wanted was change in the Middle East – especially change that empowered common men and women, Shia Arabs and Kurds.
But our president believed that the Saudis were not only America’s friends, but his personal pals. He defied our Saudi masters. Silly him.
These past several years, the furious Saudis have been perfectly willing to help the new Iraq fail, hoping a disaster would lead back to rule by a Sunni Arab strongman. But the Iraqi government’s starting to look like a going concern, after all.
So our president’s old pals are teaching us a lesson – by limiting oil supplies.
The greatest modern tragedy for the Arab world wasn’t European imperialism. It was who got the oil money: inbred desert barbarians with a zero-sum mentality about heaven and earth. The stunningly hypocritical Saudis (they could teach Eliot Spitzer plenty about top-flight hookers) have used their wealth to cut out Islam’s heart. The faith of Mohammed, peace be upon him, has no greater enemies.
In this fight, we Americans, and Muslims around the world who cherish their faith, should stand united against the Saudis.
In the heat of the moment, Iran appears to many to be our worst enemy in the Middle East. While the nut house government in Tehran is a deadly problem, it’s ultimately one of lesser scale. Our greatest enemy, anywhere, is Saudi Arabia, the cradle of terror.
Very well said and good article. It is indeed true that perhaps more than Iran, the Saudis or at least the Saudi gov’t is the problem. But I suspect it’s going to be difficult to get out of this awkward situation on your own. I don’t really see it happening soon. Many European and other nations are seeking to establish better and closer relations with the KSA, especially in the face of the Iranian threat. I doubt if many countries would like to see the U.S. turn against its so-called “ally” right now. 9/11 really opened pandora’s box. We’re in the midst of an ideological clash. A lot of our own corrupt and insane attitudes are now becoming apparent as we engage in a fight against “evil.” Are we going to do something about our hypocrisy and double standards? If not, the war on islamic terror is surely fought in vain.
If a war with Iran comes about soon and the country’s establishment is paralyzed then I assume that might lead to a stable and wealthy Iraq. Assuming Iran has a regime change into a more liberal and moderate direction, then Iraq may folow the same path and may prove to be a more reliable Western ally and oil exporting nation than the KSA. That way Saudi power and influence may diminish without having to intervene militarily. But in the meantime I think that the U.S. should continue to fight the Mahdi army and cut off the head of the snake which is Muqtada al-Sadr.
I also agree that the U.S. really should cut the crap and get real with those Saudi and other Gulf “ally” sheikhs that sponsor extremism worldwide and keep considering another important U.S. ally, Israel, as an enemy. But the question is whether European and other nations will follow. Many countries should face the fact that a lot of the extremism from Muslims in their countries is due to the Saudis funding the constructions of mosques and all sorts of Islamic studies to further the spread of their religion and expand their influence. But the reality is some European countries like the Netherlands even recognize and subsidize salafist imams and mosques themselves! How are you going to persuade them to give up on that? After all that’s been caused in Europe thanks to Islamic extremism funded by the Saudis, we simply prefer to act as if nothing is happening. The President of the European Commission Barroso today even said we should accept Islam as being part of Europe.
The U.S. hypocrital? Sure. But compared to the U.S., the European nations are, excuse me for the language, whores.
I agree very good input.
I think Europe will have to face the facts sooner rather than later. I also hear that the nations of Europe that really matter are now moving toward the right. If it continues and McCain gets elected I can see a joint war to get rid of all the radicals from Egypt to Pakistan with many regional secular governments supporting the effort at least secretly. That is the only way there can be peace in this area of the world. Expect a crack down on radicals throughout Europe as well.
From this will emerge the rise of Iraq and a new Babylonian empire to fulfill Bible prophecy. If they become pro western they just may be allowed to take over or become allied with Saudi Arabia. After Iran’s nuclear program is destroyed they probably will become an ally of Russia setting the stage for the Gog Magog war of Ezekiel that most likely is still a decade or two down the road.
Iraq and the Saudis are not mentioned as coming with Gog against Israel and the Saudis even question Gog’s intent. I think after the war on the fundamentalists we will see a rapid shift of all religion toward universalism and then the end time stage will be totally set. for what is described in Revelation..
Our problems with Saudi Arabia run a lot deeper than just the royal family:

Of course it does Bill.
But the abuses of the Royal Family help create the radicals. The royals are now funding the radicals to appease them or because they agree with them. I do not think the problems will just go away if the Royal Family is gone but right now they are the only ones in Saudi Arabia with the power to do anything about the situation. We need to give them proper motivation to become our ally on this war against radical Islam instead of acting like they are our ally while they continually subvert us.
my husband and i are foriengers working here in saudi arabia, i agree that this people surely are the evil ones. for too many reasons, their attitude towards other countries, how they discriminate people who work for them. they all feel they are kings , kings of pride i call them. they really use abuse and violence towards others. how can we believe that islam is the right religion where in it shows what kind of teachings you have, blasphemers, decievers, the fake and craziest people of the world. i hate you so much saudis citezens. i hate you for what you are. to the people of saudi wake up for a change you still got a few minutes to change for your life. change for the better you fools…..
