Another miscalculation was the use of 19 Saudi's. Expecting the US to put pressure/invade Saudia Arabia and cause mass confusion and unrest there. Instead we went into Iraq and fouled up his plans for a takeover in Saudi Arabia. He's trying his best to make his plans work in Iraq, and it ain't gonna work.

Your .02 makes sense; OBL has always wanted Westerners and the Westernized House of Saud out of SA.
