[Archae]

They are showing the corrupt bastards in Saudi Arabia.

1. Heck, Archae it doesn't start here in FIB land until 9:00 PM CST.

How come you luck out in the Northern Woods?

[Archae]

2. I have no idea.

n/t

3. And yet we never

hear about "freeing" them or Israel do we? Of course not. It's always some little baby country that has nothing but oil. :grr:

[HysteryDiagnosis]

4. Who corrupted them? One guess. They aren't the only ones who have

been bought off in order to allow the rape of other peoples' land and natural resources. Happens all the time. Hohum.

5. O M G...WWIII is coming...this is frightening

And the war for oil makes much more sense to me now. We are not just greedy for money, we are trying to acquire oil to match the might of the Saudis who are filthy rich from oil and determined to kill us. We can't touch them. They used us to protect them in Kuwait but they will turn on us in the end. As crazy as we think Freepers are about hating America, they are a zillion times more crazy--generation after generation is being raised up against America. The only question is what will be the tipping point?

6. One of those sonofabitch clerics said...

"Women's opinions don't count."

Well,spank my ass and call me Charlie.

[SmileyBoy]

7. And who's gonna replace them?? Those bastard Wahabbists??

We're fucked either way.

[Solomon]

8. Which corrput bastards are you referring to? Us or them?

[spanone]

9. It's Always been about Oil. It will Continue to be about Oil.

10. Confirms a lot of what I believed

This isn't some epic religious clash between good and evil. This is a business arrangement gone wildly awry. It goes all the way back to FDR, with the Bush family nowadays essentially serving as (while profiting from) proxies, American policy connections between us and the royal family.

11. The Saudis just said they were "insurgency" in Iraq..did I hear right?

That it would continue or escalate as long as we were there? I mean it is not hard to figure, but why would they want to be so open? Or did I hear it wrong?
