Search for casus belli to attack Iraq

[Seti 1]

The real menace is Egypt, Saudi Arabia, and Iran.

The menace is to Israel, not to us. Let Israel fight its own wars. Over the years I've watched the Middle East the Sauds have been our most reliable ally with Egypt not far behind, and I am including Israel in that equation. Do the Sauds and Egypt support the Palestinian cause? Why wouldn't they? That's not our problem.

We have treaty agreements with Taiwan also but no one is advocating we "take out" China. How much testosterone does it take to bomb Iraq?

Do the Saudis and Egypt support the Palestinian cause? Why wouldn't they? That's not our problem. You got wrong. Israel and their conflict with Arabs is only a small part of the equation. Fundamentally, Islam is a messed up religion. However, most of its stupidity was not magnified until the petrodollars was introduced in the early seventies.

As the Saudi got rich, they started to fund "charity" causes around the world. These are radical-militant Islamic ideologies, which you probably know it teaches kids to kill Jews and Christians.

The media in both Egypt and Saudi Arabia are 100% controlled bt these governments, and are preaching hate to its public against us.

These two countries must be held directly responsible for their action against us. They funded, educated, harbored, trained, and provided ideologies for the 19 terrorists who killed 3000 Americans. They are still spewing venoms against us, but we have Mr. Bob Strauss lobbying on their behalf. Not to mention all the other oil tycoons who are only interested in being nice to the oil rich Saudi Arabia. I say invade Saudi Arabia, and take over their oil to pay for the trillion dollars loss they caused us.
