#1 we want to make sure that the people of Iraq understand that the world community is behind them

Won't make a bit of difference to al-qaeda though.

#2 I am hopeful that some very public trials can be arranged for the perpetrators. I don't think that the Shia will be sympathetic to the Saudi proponets of Iraqi freedom through killing Shia clerics.

#3 I think it's only polite to call the exterminator and steam-clean the carpets before leaving.

As for trials, you can bet that the Shia will demand their own brand of justice via Sharia Law be applied. This is going to be automatic - and sad, IMHO. A Sharia-styled Old West lynching / beheading. Sigh.

As for the Saudis, it is time to end the follies and pretense. They are Dickhead & Daddy Warbucks Central and hostile territory. Sooner or later, we will be openly fighting the Saudis. It might be the current regime - or the remnants after the Royal Exodus to cuckooland.

#4 You would think eventually that Kuiatt, Iraq and other places would notice that the anti-American militants that operate on Saudi funds mostly kill Moslems.

#6 I'm sure that the Americans will be blamed on the corner of "Arab Street" and "Jihad Lane," but I am optimistic or naive about how much love there is for AQ on the main street of Najaf. I still remember the reception given to Al J reporters by the Iraqi ex-patriots in Ann Arbor, Michigan.
