| What you said. And I do consider U.S. foreign policy to not only be inconsistent, but disgustingly hypocritical. "They're the enemy as long as they aren't filling our coffers" is pretty p4-poor justification for invading Iraq under a banner of "Good vs. Evil."
You'll note I never labelled Saudi Arabia, the nation, as "evil." The Royals are the problem. The extremists who exist within their borders exist elsewhere as well. Crushing Saddam Hussien for "white knight" reasons whilst leaving the Saudi government intact is one of those things that cause me look more than a little askance at the current adminstration. |
