TnT, you're completely missing his point (and mine). We are simply
pointing out the hypocrisy of the American position in Iraq. The
latest
reason (of a very long and ever-changing list of reasons) for
invading
Iraq was to relieve them of a dictator and to bring democracy.

We are not saying that that was right (especially when the "real"
reason is fairly transparent). But the USA is. So, we're simply
pointing out the logical inconsistencies in that position if you
don't
also consider Saudi Arabia for invasion. Not to do so is
hypocritical.

And you miss mine. I was giving Wilko a bad time. If he is so
concerned about Iraq, and USA invasion, does he offer an alternative,
no matter what the original, or primary reason the USA offered? Ok he
does not think that we should have gone in there after oil, does he
think we should have gone in there for the "liberation and Democracy of
the Iraq people?"

Secondly, I was watching a documetary about Saudi Arabia on PBS. Forget
the Saks and other Glitz stores, the women were grocery shopping at a
Safeway! Seems the invasion is underway, and isn't that Osama's main
contention? TnT
