We are still a major ally with Saudi Arabia, even though almost all of the 19 9/11 hijackers were Saudi, and no other country provides more foreign fighters to Iraq and Afghanistan. They are a kingdom run by a family, and the country as whole denies civil rights to women. Most of the population of the country hates America, and many would think twice about killing Americans. They harbor terrorists. And giving all that, Bush is still in bed with the Saudi royal family, and we buy most of our oil from them. Does this mean that terrorists are OK as long as they sell us oil? How many American lives lost are acceptable for a barrel of Saudi Crude?

Ask those who won't let us drill in Anwar or off the coast of Florida, or those whose won't lt us build new refineries or nuclear power stations.

We don't need Saudi oil at all. We are only getting 17% from them so to cut them off totally wouldn't even make a dent in our oil supply.

they also just released 1500 members of al qaeda. If we were to attack any country, Saudi Arabia should have been the one. Not Iraq. Oil apparently speaks very loudly.

Many people seem to forget that this is primarily how the Bush family fortune has been made. This includes his daddy, too.

Apparently, as many as it takes. People here are too coward to stop it. Too many of them like their big SUV's, and as long as they can afford to put gas in them, nothing will change.
