As if there is a good excuse to destroy a billion dollars worth of infrastructure and target tens of thousands of innocents for deliberate murder.
Well then, if you "ain't buying" what Ron Paul is selling you must really be upset at that notorious "blame America" fellow Paul Wolfowitz who said pretty much the same thing. Wolfy stated that the presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia had been "a huge recruiting device" for Al Qaeda. Here are Wolfy's comments in full:
Saudi Arabia. Their presence there over the last 12 years has been a source of enormous difficulty for a friendly government. It's been a huge recruiting device for al Qaeda. In fact if you look at bin Laden, one of his principle grievances was the presence of so-called crusader forces on the holy land, Mecca and Medina. I think just lifting that burden from the Saudis is itself going to open the door to other positive things.
Very good point, on your #57.
I am.
