Saudis Blame U.S. and Its Role in Iraq for Rise of Terror
[cough]BULLSHIT![cough]
Seventeen months into a shadowy terror campaign that has killed more than 100 people, numerous Saudis express less anger at the insurgents than at the United States for its invasion of Iraq, the signal event that they say touched off the attacks inside the kingdom.
Crippling a majority of al Qaeda's overseas operation had nothing to do with it.
In interviews over the last week, the Saudis condemned the terror attacks, aimed primarily at foreigners, but called them a small inconvenience that has not forced them to make significant changes in their daily lives. By contrast, they expressed unremitting disdain for the United States.
Just like at least 15 of the 9-11 hijackers felt.
'Disdain' isn't quite the word I would have used to describe the opinion of the average Soodi for us. |
