#1 But of course it's our fault. Who else could it be? *wink, wink* *nudge, nudge*

"We are grateful to the United States; most of us were educated there," said Prince al-Shafi. He and others said Saudis are picking other countries for their children now because of their anger, and because of the immigration obstacles they believe they and other Arabs face traveling to the United States since 9/11.

I'm sure the French would be glad to have them, pretty soon we will have to see if they are happy to have the French

#3 Why isn't that the pot calling the kettle responsible for the rise of terror?

#4 I love my truck and have no problem paying $1.80+ a gallon or whatever, but, I can't wait until we have good alternative energy sources to go to so we can minimize our dealings with this jerk off country. The M.E. and soddi eurabia in particularly are a shingle on the ass cheek of the world and every time you scratch the damn thing it just gets all over.

#5 Wow! I sure miss mingling with Saudis here in the U.S.!

*wringing hands*

Now, how shall I learn how to subjugate women, hate Jooos, get others to do my work, and believe in a master race...?

#6 Article: "We are grateful to the United States; most of us were educated there," said Prince al-Shafi. He and others said Saudis are picking other countries for their children now because of their anger, and because of the immigration obstacles they believe they and other Arabs face traveling to the United States since 9/11.

It would appear that Saudi gratitude consists of saying that they are grateful. With gratitude like this...

#7 ZF - After 9/11 it was interesting how often the Saudis I worked with complained that they couldn't go to the US anymore cuz they'd be singled out - much better to go to Britain or Italy or somewhere. When I would say, "Yes, I understand - and agree, you might be singled out and you might feel very unwelcome. London would be much better." They'd nod, take a drag, and then start bitching about it all over again.

They didn't want to go to London, or Paris, or Rome. They wanted NY and LA and DisneyLand. Heh. Ain't life a bitch?

#8 If the Saudi's no longer want to subsidize the Hate America professariate that controls American higher education, it sure is OK with me. Serve them both right.

#9 They're gonna be REALLY pissed when two or three divisions roll south out of Iraq, and another couple land on their eastern and western shores, and the United States puts an end to Wahabbism and the funding of all the death and destruction waged in the name of that "religion". A "work accident" in the main palace in Riyadh would be a nice change of pace, eh?

#10 Right on OP. Wahabbism is a cult that combined with Naziism resulted in today's Al Q. If there are fewer SA folk coming to the US all the better says I. And yes, we need to be working hard and fast on alternative energy sources or at least seriously stretching the sources we have. Let them drink their oil and eat their sand. Once they've done that again for 20 years, we can talk.

#13 I listened on the car radio today some Saudi information ad trying to put them in a better light. When they allow women to vote and they allow religious freedom in their country, I will listen. Otherwise they can have a nice warm cup of STFU.
