#5 "Saudi Arabia, America's key partner in the Middle East..."

Yeah, and there is a tooth fairy, Santa, and Easter bunny too. As the saying goes: "With friends such as this who needs enemies?" I only wish Saudis would clamp down as much on terrorism and AQ as they do on women, anything anti-islam, and other religions.

#6 So, in effect, we are at war with these bastards and have been for quite some time. Not only on the battlefields in Iraq and Afghanistan but also in the mosques of Europe and America. The only problem is our elites won't let anybody call it a war and they won't do what's needed to win the war because of the oil. Well, everybody has to have priorities. At what point will the elites decide that the priorities need to change? If I was the Soddy king I would give some serious thought to that question.

#7 A half-dozen LARGE nukes over Saudi Arabia would put an end to much of the mischief in the world - as long as it's coupled with about 20 in Iran. It would also send a clear message to the jihadis that if they mess with the West, they will cease to exist - as a nation, as a religion, as a people. It would also screw up the retirement plans of a lot of folks in Washington that nurse at the Saudi teat while claiming to be upstanding, patriotic Americans. It would also END the "war on terror" - what a stupid name! How about the War against Islamic Jihad?

That alone would be worth the price of admission. We have been sold out.

#9 The key might be in finding what the Saudis think is a shameful way to die. For example, the Iraqis hang, but the Saudis behead, usually murderers and drug smugglers. Perhaps if the Iraqis took to beheading captured Saudi terrorists, it would click back home.
