The Smell of Victory

See how well it’s all working out? So when do we invade the Saudis?
June 29, 2005 — WASHINGTON — U.S. commanders in Iraq are facing a growing security threat from Saudi Arabia — which is emerging as a major center for recruitment and financing of terrorist operations in Iraq, The Post has learned.
Officials said that over the past few months, they have seen the Saudi connection to Iraq terror groups — like Abu Musab Zarqawi’s al Qaeda in Iraq — increase as more fanatics cross into Iraq to fight American forces.
New intelligence also suggests that after Zarqawi pledged allegiance to Osama bin Laden earlier this year, there has been an increase in financing and other support from al Qaeda cells, radical clerics and wealthy businessmen inside Saudi Arabia, officials said.
Ok, gee, like we couldn’t have seen this coming. Like the fact that nearly all of the freaking 9/11 terrorists were Saudis wasn’t a tip off. But bush is too busy holding hands , going on man-dates, and playing kissy face with the Saudi Royal Family to notice that they were FAR more involved in 9/11 than Iraq. Now, we don’t have to forces to do what we should have done to the Saudis in the first place.
Well let’s see how we like Iraq with the Saudis running it.
