Biden: Saudis Fighting U.S. in Iraq

We at OP have long suspected this to be the case.

More foreign fighters than ever are crossing Iraq's porous borders to fight U.S. and Iraqi forces, and a growing number are from U.S.-ally Saudi Arabia, a Senate Democrat said Thursday.

"The mix is changing," said Sen. Joseph Biden, D-Del., citing conversations last week in Iraq with Marine and Army generals. "Now, the mix is increasingly more Islamist crossing the border ... and a lot of them are Saudis. It presents a different profile" that is harder for U.S. forces to confront.

If the indigenous Iraqi population does not support these foreign terrorists, they will have no safe haven. The bulk of those people dying at their hands are Iraqis, not Americans. I see the influx of Saudis, et. al., as a sign of desperation. The "insurgents" must be having recruitment problems.
