#2 Nope, this is good. It means that, for better or worse, they've figured out their future lies with us. Their first team comes here to learn about the future, their second team goes to Madrassas to learn the past.

#4 There are a few in that number who are actually bright and have potential, but that's merely rare serendipity. The vast majority are the offspring of the Royals and their favored clans on the Saudi equivalent of a world tour.

If you ask yourself who would be allowed this privilege, and nobody leaves without running the gauntlet, the answer is easy: the privileged. There is no serious consideration of merit in Saudi society.

A little "seasoning" before they join the ranks of the Saudi elite. They haven't figured out anything at all.

#8 Lennin was wrong. We'd sell 'em the rope, turns out the commies couldn't tie a knot.

#9 I hope Homeland Security has them bugged and trailed every which way. Some will learn, some will turn, and some will lead directly to people and activities they thought could be hidden until they went boom. And, the university gets lots of money, and the local students are exposed to the rare pleasure of dealing with young Saudi asses. ;-)
