Tell me why after so many years of protecting the house of Saud does America's Israeli lobby turned so viciously on them. Years ago slick Billy Safire would have rolled Charles Krauthammer in front of Saddam's T-72s to protect them, but times and allies change I would just like to know, why now?

I would just like to know, why now?

It's just the little things...like the Khobar Towers, the Cole, 9/11, and the Muslim 5th column.

Add to that the fact the Kuwaitis show us at least a little decorum of gratitude for resucing their country from Saddam; the Saudis not an iota. Sod them.
