Last week, report mentioned that more than half of the suicide bombers in Iraq were Saudis, and a few days ago your government decided to provide Saudi Arabia with 20 billion worth of weapons.
Are we missing something here? Why don't they handle the weapons to Bin Laden personally? At least it would be less hypocritical.
What's the difference between the Saudis and the Iranians? They both want to destroy the Americans' efforts in Iraq, and Iraq itself.

The Bush Admin. is desperate for anything that will salvage this nation building exercise.(aka royal F'k up)
They are also organizing the Sunni militias, which should help them when we leave and they can have a well organized civil war.

Bush sends $$ to the Saudis because Prince Bandar was the prime mover and shaker behind his and his daddy's elections.
Don't you already know that the US is a subsidiary of the Saudi Royal Family, bought, paid for, signed, sealed and delivered? No? Then just see what a meltdown the 2008 election is. Hanging chads will be the least of it: most of the electronic machines either will not report a checksum or the checksum will not tally....but the Saudis will likely continue to dictate the resident of the White House for the foreseeable future.

You claim to be an Iraqi. I suspect you are a stupid American liberal using a deceptive psudonym.
As you should know; bin Laden is the son of a Yemeni businessman and a Saudi woman. His terror group is based upon the thinking of the particular sect of Islam he belongs too: the Wahabbis. They are an extremely violent sect of Sunni Muslims. Most Muslims are more moderate. Osama uses guys from his sect because they tend to be very dogmatic, and easily mislead into believing this myth about Martyr's heaven. There ain't no such thing. There are no virgins waiting for suicide bombers. Bin Laden uses these young men because they fall victim to this extreme cult.

YES. That is "how our politics work."
Arms are America's #1 Industrial Export.
We just recently provided the Sunnis with arms.
America's official policy is to provide plenty of weapons all over the world, to create instability, so that there is violence, death and destruction, so that we can sell even MORE weaponry.
See, there are many, many defense-related mega-businesses here in this country. It's where the truly big money is.
Everything else has been outsourced.

Yep, you got it. This is how it works. If we ever actually audited the military budget, the waste would make us sick. We could fund all of our programs at home without raising taxes a bit. Can't see that happening any time soon.

The real culprit in this is our own nation who brokers these deals to continue its massive spending in the defense industry .
We are printing money to pay for expenditures of this nature as well as to give to other nations .
Its criminal that the people of this nation pay taxes and once again have no representation .
