So, let me get this straight...

[rustydog]

When Bush* declared war on terror he said something like
"You are either with us or against us."
With news coming out that Saudi Arabia may be behind (financially) the 9/11 attackers (no duh) I would hazard a guess that Saudi Arabia is against us.
King George took it upon hissef to classify the 9/11 inquiry relating to Saudi Arabia's part in aiding and abeting Terrorists.

King George is covering for Terrorist sympathysers...Does that mean King George is against us too?

1. don't forget we supported LOTS of terrorists

daddybush under reagan helped create saddam and osama. they were actual cia operatives for decades, doing the will of the bushco regime. and bush has said hundreds of times in public, if you support or finance terrorists, you are just as guilty as the terrorists. saudi arabia, iran, iraq, nicaragua, el salvador, guatamala, panama, anywhere there are mad dictators there is bushco behind the scenes, making huge profits off of human misery.

2. The Saudis are against American culture

but they're for selling oil to American companies. That puts the Saudis and the Bushies on the same team.

4. We also run their oil business.

After living there I do not think they like to work and you do need some planning to run a big oil co. They have the Am do it for them.

5. Interesting! I have a question.

From several people I've heard that Saudis don't like to work; that's why they have such a large percentage of foreign workers there. What DO they do with their time instead? (I guess I'm asking mostly about the men--presumably the women, like women everywhere, have plenty to do with childcare and household management.)

It's fairly well-known that young men with lots of time on their hands have a tendency to make trouble. No offense to any young unemployed men--certainly not every young man without a job or study obligations gets into trouble, but where this situation is widespread, a certain percentage are going to. IMO it's even more likely in a culture like Saudi Arabia's, where they can't even spend their time trying to "hook up" with young women!

So it's no wonder that Saudi Arabia is a breeding ground for terrorists.

3. Bush has always been against "us". The "us" is the vast majority of

the American public. Bush has always been "for" anyone who can soothe his ego (he's always been such a failure) and make him feel important.

I always wonder what the reaction by the thugs behind the thrown is when he opens his mouth and starts to ad-lib. Do they grab their heads and start screaming "stick to the script you dumbass" or something like that? I'm sure that they lie awake all night sweating bullets when they know he's about to make a public appearance.

6. Also, What About Jordan and Saddam's Daughters?

The daughters didn't "repent" at all about their wanting Saddam still in power, they said he was "betrayed". So Jordan is sheltering Saddam "sympathizers"?---no?

8. Like Bill Mahr said yesterday...paraphrasing:

Saddam's daughters are completely innocent...Saddam's daughters haven't even gotten fake ID's and gone out drinking.

7. Why do you believe that the government cares for you

It really doesn't matter which party is in the WH ... government should be held on a short leash.

Of course Bush is playing both sides of the fence ...

9. Almost schizophrenia.

10. He's Defending MONARCHY, Like HIS

Isn't it accepted that the Saudi and Jordanian monarchies are a hair-s breadth from collapsing? To be replaced with undisguised militants?

11. monarchy

If this administration doesn't shut up and keep its nose out of the Middle East, Iraq, Jordan,etc., each country there that even smells like it could be democratic will revert to fundamentalism. They hate us, for good reason.
