just because some of the 9/11 hijackers came from Saudi Arabia does not mean that the Saudi people are our enemies now. the simple fact is that the hijackers used Saudi Arabia as an easy more "relaxed" entry way into the US. And for the Iraq part of the question; Saddam Hussein's time was up, he had to go... The Saudi Government may not be the most democratic government in the middle east but they are most definitely the most stable and the least dictator-like in the entire region, and a war with Saudi Arabia is by no means in the best interests of the American people, in my opinion of course...:stoned:

sorry Rusty for attempting to answer a question that was clearly directed at you, I just couldn't resist chiming in....:stoned:
