I'd go further and say that this wasn't an innocent mistake based on disinformation, but a calculated diversion. After 9/11, the American people rightly demanded that the administration do something in retaliation. The Saudis were in bed with the Bushes as much as they were with the Clintons, so investigating the money trail from Al Quaeda to the Saudi clerics to Saudi Royals was out. Iraq was a good red herring diversion that created the impression of something being done while the Saudis could go on financing their radical clerics without so much as a slap on the wrist.
Maybe he and pop were so in bed with the sauds I’m surprised they didn’t have their babies.
Sounds about right. Obama bows to the Saudis, Bush kisses them and holds their hand. That's about the only difference.
I didn’t want to say what you did, but you’re right. I don’t think it was an innocent mistake.
A crushed dictator from some third world pit?
I just couldn’t see straight at the time. too caught up in everything
