#1 "He who says the kingdom harbors terrorism should reconsider his words."

Or we may cut out your tounge.

#2 Prince Nayef sez there ain’t no Soddy terror camps

And from his perspective, killing infidels is not terrorism.

#5 Now that he's so obligingly identified himself as part of the problem, shouldn't he have a heart attack or something? Maybe fall in the shower and crack his skull. Get incinerated from space by our Ion Cannon. Something.

#6 Sooner or later, we're going to have to realize that the only way to end Islamofascism is to crush the "magic kingdom", where 90% of the money, and 100% of the inspiration, comes from.

That may not be a bad idea on another plane, too. Conquering Saudi Arabia will really draw the nutcase jihadi monkeys by the millions. Have them assemble in Mecca and Medina to "protect the holiest places in all Islam", then slam those two cities with all the nasties the Allies can bring to bear. Let the Islamic world learn just how NASTY the rest of us can be when we get tired of their idiocy. I mean blast the two cities with nukes, biological and chemical weapons to the point where even the sand 100 miles away becomes deadly. Let all the nutjobs in the world perform "haj", and let it become a one-way trip.

The only thing these people respect is force. I think an overwhelming display of force is the only thing that will end the stupidity. Rough on those on the receiving end, but if you can't take a sting or two, you shouldn't have whacked the hornet's nest.

#7 Nayef is one of the two prime candidates to succeed the King. He controls most of the security apparatus in Soddi, and is not, and never was, our friend. He believes he can ride out the storm by supporting the terrs. He's, err..., dead wrong.

#8 With the out-of-control piliferation of nukes, I think we need to develop a new WMD. We should assemble a crack team of mercenary penis-snatchers from around the globe. We could loose them upon the Saudis and any other foe that irks us. How could they respond? After all hold all the world's known reserves of Enzyte.

#9 Chuck-
I think you're on the right track, but let me look at it from another angle. I think Those Wacky Sauds - especially the senior princes - figure that yesa, they can still pay off Al-Q, and when crunch time comes they'll have enough time to bail out and get to those villas on the Riviera while leaving the rest of the country to face the music.
Where they make a mistake there is that they really have no control over what the people they are supporting are doing. If and when the next big hit comes - and God forbid, but I think it'll be a bad one - they won't have enough time to even grab the overnight bag. We'll just start turning keys.

#10 Can we just send Special Forces in to unplug King Fahd's respirator? His death and funeral would open the way for a public and bloody battle for control of the Crown. As long as he lives, Nayef and Abdullah can only vie for power behind the scenes, and grow stronger each day. Like Emeril says, let's kick it up a notch!

#11 For all the conspiracy talk about Bush connections to the House of Saud. I still think the real reason we did Iraq is that the administration does see the writing on the wall for the Big Sand Box, and is trying to cover its bets.

#12 SA has at least one border that is sort of vague. If a camp were built on the border with Yemen both nations would have some deniability.

#13 Amen, Old Patriot, amen. It has been over two years since a gang of Saudis took down four planes and killed thousands on our home turf -- and the Saudis still don't get it. I'm increasingly of the opinion that we should target the lot of them with nukes and yell them to clean out their vermin promptly or die.

#14 Seafarious is King Fahd on an honest to blowing respirator? How far gone is he? Ronald Reagan gone or further away?

#16 Shipman, your guess is as good as mine. I have no personal knowlege of his condition. He could be on a respirator; he could be hanging out with Ted Williams in the cryo-lab in Arizona for all I know. But as long as he's "alive" in the official pronouncements from Riyadh, the princelings are free to plot and buy even more influence. If we could prove King Fahd to be officially dead, with a large state funeral and a nice wooden stake through the area where his heart should be (and perhaps some garlic-flavored pork rinds in the coffin just to be sure), then the Naif and Abdullard will have to battle in public for control. There could be several nasty "accidents" and perhaps some of the funding channels and C&C operational chains would be disrupted.

#17 Gulf News reported yesterday that Fadh had addressed the Makkah (Mecca) Conference organised by the Muslim World League. If true he's still a step or two away from death's door.

#18 I don't think he actually addressed them. They read a statement from him...
