#1 "The rejection is especially unusual because the Saudis paid for the delegation's visit, but did not allow them to talk to their most natural counterparts in the Saudi Arabian government."

...I could see Mrs. Phester doing something like this after a forgotten anniversary, etc. Yeah, they're pissed about Syria...

#3 Don't blame them.
I mean, at this point, what is there to say?
Or you could just let the US govt lie to you, like it does with the rest of us. And the House of Saud can afford to pay for you to be snubbed.
