#1 I suggest we make them feel as welcome in the US as Americans are made to feel in the Magik Kingdom.

When we get fed up and institute reciprocal laws for each foreign "state" we deal with - all of them, as they are all protectionist (at the least) and deal with us on (very) unequal terms - the situation will finally begin to improve.

#2 A suicidal tolerance will be the end of us.

#3 You'd think after all this time to shop the competition they would have found an education source that is more palatable to their sensitivities. Maybe now we can start to crank up the pressure by requiring that the number of male and female visas issued and used must be equal. So that the risk of jail time for importing sex slaves is minimized, of course. Then prohibit the wearing of Halloween costumes on any day except 10/31. How are they going to keep them down in the tent after they've been to gay LA?

#4 The increase came as a result of the measures taken by the Saudi and American authorities, including the Saudi governments huge scholarship program to enable Saudi students to study abroad.

I've always wondered why, if America is so decadent by Magic Kingdom-Wahhabi standards, the Saudis are so eager to send so many of their kids to study abroad?

Certainly it cannot be for broadening their horizons since upon return to the incongruous Kingdom, replete with fleets of Mercedes that no female may drive, the educated are reduced to the "willing" supplicants of an autocratic and theocratic society.

So, why are they here in record droves? Is it that some 57 percent of Islamist suicide boomers in Iraq are Saudis? Could this be a way for Saudi parents to save their kids from Jihad all the while as contributions continue to flow towards radical Islamist death cults?

Or could there be another reason, namely that there are two Saudi Arabias, one fanatical and dangerous and the other, tentatively moving in the direction of moderation?

#5 Now, my American correspondents, tell me again about the suicidal tendencies you detect in Israelis.

#6 LOL, Gromgoru, you've got us by the short hairs.
L.O.D., right. What if they have another purpose besides being "students" ? What easier way to get them in. Don't have to walk the desert trails, just fly right in. The stupidity of this administration never ceases to amaze me. I guess they prefer the legacy of being dumber than Jimmah, who allowed the Cuban criminal invasion.

#7 That's b/c Bush was, has been, is, and will always be compromised by his family's contacts with Al-Saud oil interests. Now that his old man's team players are running the show, expect more smiles among the scheming Saudi leaders.
