The Saudis should get a talking to...

It's not ignorance, poverty or idiocy... the problem is "Islam" itself. This pseudoreligion is a primitive, brutal, violent and totalitarian ideology. Period.

His profile upsets the conventional and faulty perception of terrorists as uneducated, poor and desperate individuals. Al-Ghamdi was well-educated a medical student. And he came from a wealthy and well-connected Saudi Arabian family. His father is a Saudi ambassador. That's only the delusion of the left, most normal people know this already...or at least I was well aware. Look at Bin Laden...not exactly a pauper without prospects. Just don't try to point such things out to dimocrats, they just get angry when you point out their ignorance (I've seen from personal experience on more than one occasion)

The left believes that all human evil will be overcome with more education and a middle-class lifestyle. Simularly, anyone who doesn't agree with them is either poor and uneducated, or rich and unenlighted. You see that in their ideals about prison reform and criminal justice. You see that with their foriegn policy and military ideas as well.

Do you ever notice that every time we go through this we hear the same description. He was a good boy not too religious nice to animals and ate his vegetables. Does anyone remember friends saying he was a Satanic stooge. The problem is that when one lives amongst Satanic stooges one wouldn't tend to stand out. Pat Boone or the late Fred Rodgers would get noticed.

Exactly what Bin Laden wants us to believe so that his struggle becomes a religious war against 1.3 billion people. You've just done half of his work for him.

From the article "Al-Ghamdi was well-educated a medical student"
I have seen his age listed as 19 and 20, what kind of medical school did he attend?
Was this some islamo Doogie Houser?

Frankly, bin Laden and Zwahiri upset the common logic that terrorists are poor. Why hasn't anyone made this connection yet?

Al-Ghamdi's profile is similar to those of the 15 Saudis who participated in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States. In fact, three members of the extended al-Ghamdi clan participated in those attacks. Looking forward to hearing from Free Republic's resident Islamic Appeasers as to why we shouldn't slaughter the extended families of the terrorists.

You've just done half of his work for him.If you think we shrink from a task of that magnitude, you think again! It's coming harvest-time, and this Ghamdi bunch sounds like suitable "first fruits."

His profile upsets the conventional and faulty perception of terrorists as uneducated, poor and desperate individuals. Al-Ghamdi was well-educated a medical student. And he came from a wealthy and well-connected Saudi Arabian family. His father is a Saudi ambassador. Good post. But the author is actually setting up a straw man to demolish here. The Saudi terrorists are, as a rule, pretty well-heeled. That's what makes them doubly dangerous, i.e., they've got really nutzoid ideas, and the financial wherewithal to carry them out. And the Saudis, rich and poor, have a dirty little secret which it is not polite to mention, but generally acknowledged:
Millenia of inbreeding have caused a lot of them to have an astounding array of genetic defects, not the least of which is a very high incidence of mental pathology. Best example of the Saudi/Yemeni genetic package is Osama bin L himself. Abnormally tall, strange-looking facial macromegaly, bad vision, bad kidneys, and definitely a mental case, complete with tics. That's what happens when you marry a couple of first cousins, usually sisters, whose parents are first cousins to your parents who are also cousins. In the last two decades, as the Saudi population has actually QUADRUPLED, the problem has grown much worse.
The Saudi National Anthem probably ought to be, "I'm My Own Grampa!"

Excellent, sir...
Do you have any references for that? (I'm not questioning you ; I'd just like to have something substantiable with which to cause trouble...)
