Your statement: Too bad he failed to punish the country responsible for
attacking us.

My question: What country would you have had him 'punish'?


OK - just out of curiosity, I'll name the country: Saudi Arabia. Now I'm
curious to hear you explain why we could not have punished Saudi Arabia,
because more than any other country you can name, they were responsible
9/11.

Did the Saudi Arabian government send the people or did the people go on
their on accord?


The Saudi royal family (which is the Saudi government in its entirety) gives
cash support to schools which turn out terrorists. When any of our
politicians (rarely) suggest that the Saudis need to own up to their crimes,
those politicians are quickly muzzled. If I recall, there have been perhaps
two "what a heinous crime" comments from congressmen since 9/11. That's it.
That's all.

Only last year did the Saudis begin making a token effort to "rehabilitate"
people yelling about jihad. You didn't read about this, did you?



Saudi Arabia was also responsible for sending more foreign fighters than
any other into Iraq.

They were aware of it and did nothing to stop it. Therefore, they had intent
to see it continue. Thanks for asking. That was an excellent question.



Tell me why we could not have done to Saudi Arabia what we did to Iraq.

Iraq was a threat to the flow of oil in the entire region. The US
military's presence in Saudi Arabia was a threat to the ruling family and
thus a threat to the stability of the country and its oil.

Right. Time to eliminate the ruling family. We built that country. Time to
take it back.



Regardless of what you think oil is extremely important to our daily
lives, we cannot live without it right now. Also, the fact that we cannot
drill for it off our own coasts, due to Democrats in Congress and
environmental wackos, is the reason we are in the middle east. If we
pumped our own oil out of the ground where ever it is found we would be
better off.

You never saw me say that oil was not worth protecting, using our military
to do so.
