Oh, come on!!! The only thing they had for Iraqi ties was a 'possible' couple of meetings with a few terrorists and some papers found by US troops after the fact that we haven't heard much about for a looooonnng time. OTOH, even Fox reported on Saudi elite donating millions of dollars to terrorist organizations amd having fundraisers for them. Some ally huh?
"Oh, come on" -- meaningless hyperbole.
The telethons were held in many Arab countries including such ally coutries as S.A., Qatar, UAE, Kuwait.... Donations to these telethons came from many elite Arabs from all over the Arab world -- not just S.A.
No clear link has yet been established to terror organizations from these telethons because it is very hard to track the money from the telethons, through the charities and to the organizations and places the money finally gets to. However, that doesn't mean that money from these telethons doesn't go to terrorists.
Anyway, over a year ago and at the president's request Abdullah initiated accounting and auditing procedures to monitor S.A. 230 charities. Since then, I've not heard any complaints.
I've asked you to name me the Abdullah link to terrorism and you have provided me with no direct source for a link.
