WASHINGTON: The administration of George W. Bush is preparing to ask Congress to approve an arms sale package for Saudi Arabia and five other Gulf countries that is expected to total $20 billion
In addition to Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates are likely to receive equipment and weaponry from the arms sales now under consideration.
All the suspected hijackers of 911 were from Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirites ,Lebanon or Egypt. Not only are the Saudi's raping the American people of gas, they are also getting supplied with weapons by the United States. But administration officials remain concerned that the size of the package to Saudi Arabia and the advanced weaponry that it contains, as well as broader concerns about the role Saudi Arabia plays in Iraq, could prompt critics in Congress to oppose the package when it is formally notified about the deal this autumn. In talks about the package, the administration did not seek specific assurances from Saudi Arabia that it would be more supportive of the U.S. effort in Iraq, the officials said. Pathetic, absolutely pathetic people in the White House.

This is like Reagan allowing the sale of arms to iran. Only it's not a secret. The Bush administration is so arrogant, they think they can do anything. This should really put the president in the impeachment catagory. And ruin his credibility with remaining Americans that still support him.

LOL!!! We have been selling arms of various types to the Saudis for a long long time, they were instrumental in winning the Gulf war. To blame the Saudi government for the 911 attacks is asinine on the face of it. To say that the Saudis are raping the Americans over oil is also laughable. Has out consumption of oil diminished at all? The price has not gone high enough and it is apparent that we are not paying enough. We have not hit our limit.

Timothy Mcveigh was from the US. By your logic all Americans are
terrorists. Talk about a totally racist comment.

Saudi Arabia has high unemployment and a lot of people on welfare.
It is because of this democratic party like atmosphere that a lot
of terrorists come from Saudi Arabia.

Another reason are the US bases that have been there for years.
Through mis- information, quite a few Saudis blame their problems
on the US. Jimmy Carter is personal ties with the Saudis. Does that
make him a terrorist?

Bases in Saudi? were'nt they closed two days before Bush made his "mission Accomplished" statement?

Hardman, let me spell it out for you. Timothy Mcveigh was an American.
He was also a terrorist. You can no more blame all americans on what
Mcveigh did than blame all Saudis for what the 9-11 hyjackers did.

We have KKK, Muslim extremist, skinheads,and so on in this country also.
But they do not answer to you and I. Likewise all middleeast terrorists
do not answer to their governments.

In Iran there is the opposite problem. Plenty of pro americans there
the government in control is anti-american.

Sorry, I just don't agree with grouping all people by their race, religios
beliefs, or country they come from.

Thats funny, Saudi pilots may fly F-15's to look good, however they are no where near talented enough to win a war. They flew around in the first Gulf War acting like they knew how to do something.

The only ones im grouping together are the ones that chose to be labeled.

By my logic, in the other post, you said that I considered all Americans to be terrorist. I did not.

I was demostraiting a point. You can no more hold the Saudi royal family
responsable for Osama than you be resposable for Mcveigh.

Then where are the Sunni's getting their money? Where does Osama get his money? If he is "cut off". You can't tell me that someone who lives in a cave, is getting money from other supporters who also live in caves. I know, the monthly rent on a cave has to be pretty cheap, and you could save alot of money by not have a real mortgage, But get real.

Making false statements about me claiming that all Americans being terrorist, is only proving one point. And it's not the one that your trying to make.
