Follow the policy, AND freeze all Saudi owned assets inside the US. If they don't respond as we want them to, confiscate everything and then destroy the assets that we built for them in their country. They won't be needed those airbases anymore.

I REALLY hate to say this, but it seems that Bush's war cry of "Your either with us or the terrorists" is paramont to his dad's "Read My Lips". Its clear that the Saudi's are not cooperating, yet we protect their fat asses and allow them to do business not only with us, but with Bin-Laudin. Will Bush keep to his words? No. The Saudi's own us...or do they?

The US can hurt the Saudi's by freezing their assets and not buying their oil. The US is THE #1 consumer of crude from the Saudi's. Once they lose their biggest customer, their crude price goes into the dirt! This would also impact OPEC as a whole and crash the rest of the oil market as a whole! South America would be beating down our door for the business and once Bush get the green light to drill in Anwar, the Saudis become inconsequencial!
