#2 Perhaps this is one way to help solve their demographics problem: export thousands of their jobless, but thoroughly indoctrinated, young men to every Islamic conflict they can find.

As for the Iraqi quoted, Sheikh Abdul Aziz Al Jenabi, his opinion can be dismissed out of hand as honesty in Islam is a matter of convenience.

It's definitely time to end the sham of "The Special Relationship" and get the Foggy Bottom apologists out of the way. The US needs a free hand to deal with the complicity and duplicity of the Saudis - official and otherwise.
