I got this from a reliable source, and posted it for you to read and comment on. I wonder whether John Grisham had a hand in it.

Your source may be reliable; I cannot question that. And I hope it is. But before I pass this around to my own network of folks, would you please keep us posted on the developments of this lawsuit?

I'm getting tired of being told by the Administation who our "friends" are in the Middle East. Every day the evidence mounts that the pan-Arab nations are a cancer to the world.

The question for the US is how to overthrow/destabilize the Saudi regime without ending up with another Iran.

Not simple.

[NativeNewYorker]

Just as we entered mop-up mode in Trashcanistan, the Pallies conveniently change the world's focus toward Israel, diverting folks from the logical next targets in the war against terror, Iran, Iraq and the Saudis.

Not a coincidence.

Returning the House of Saud to medieval bliss would end the terror financing pipeline.

You are correct. Islam is the most dangerous force on the face of the earth today. Where ever Islam spreads there is a horrific response. In the Sudan millions of Christian Slaves. In Europe - the Balkins a war. A war about to bubble over Between India and Pakistan, in Thailand horrible murderes commited by the Islamic nuts, in the Philippines a horrible Islamic revolution. In Russia a bloody mess, in the USA 9/11. It is time the world woke up to the fact that it is at war with ISLAM

It is time the world woke up to the fact that it is at war with ISLAM
Haven't you heard, Islam is a peaceful and tolerant religion >/sarcasm<

I don't know what to make of it, but it never hurts to look at both sides. For another view of Loftus from the other side, click here ... "Loftus remains a controversial figure with extremist views that despite all of the U.S. support to the Jewish state, America has in fact 'sold Israel out'. He argues that the U.S. has bureaucrats who see America’s national interest in getting a cheap supply of oil."

The history of the 20th Century revolved around the battle between liberty and socialism/totalitarianism

The history of the 21st Century will revolve around the battle between the West and militant Islam

I wish I could disagree with you. The sons of Ishmael (literal and spiritual) are becoming a major source of grief and misery not only to themselves, which they have often been, but to their neighbors and the world at large.

Isn't American foreign policy ironic (nonsensical really) ??

We won't trade with Cuba because Castro forbids democracy. Yet, in the middle east -- where the monarchs rule much more fiercely than the Cuban dictator, we spend billions on oil everyday ??

I don't recall any allegations that Castro has had anyone beheaded lately. Yet, there is more than one each week in Saudi Arabia. So much for "human rights."

Too bad Castro doesn't have oil.

Your site with another view of Loftus doesn't come up. Says not available on this browser

I assume you meant to say it is too bad the middle east monarchs have oil.

It appears the lawsuit was filed back in March. I recall O'Reilly doing some sort of an update about Sami Al-Arian, perhaps about that time. Does anyone remember more specifics?

I read the IslamOnline.net article by "Steve Smith"--that's a hoot. Well, if Loftus' name is thrown around with the names Daniel Pipes and Steven Emerson, that's a great credential as far as I'm concerned.

Says Loftus was a former "Nazi-Hunter" for the Dept of Justice. Interesting.

Also interesting to see the Florida Holocaust museum building. I plan to visit next time I'm in Tampa-St. Pete.

yazd -- why, yes -- that's EXACTLY what I MEANT to say (G) !!

I assume you meant to say it is too bad the middle east monarchs have oil.

Thanks for the clarification.

John Loftus is one of the more knowledgable people about intelligence matters, particularly as they apply to the Middle East, and he has lots of contacts. The book he wrote entitled "Secret War Against the Jews" (by Loftus and Aarons) is an encyclopedic history of intelligence agencies active in that part of the world since WWI. One might disagree with some of his conclusions, but the material in the book is amazing. I would take any of his opinions on covert activities in the Middle East very seriously.

[Shermy]

The question is why? Yes, religion. But also the price of oil and deflection from examining Saudi more closely. The latter is quite successful, note the "Palestinianization" of the crisis, and the Media/Left acceptance that this explains all in the Middle East.

Discontent breeds fear breeds higher oil prices. The Saudi influenced charity groups other than Hamas that were shut down lately were charity fronts to funnel money, arms, and logistics to Wahhabists in Central Asia and the Caucasus to disrupt and scare off hydrocarbon production there that would be competitive with Saudi and OPEC resources.

[NCDoc]

We don't have to overthrow the Saudis. All we have to do is take away their oil fields. And give Mecca and Medina to the Jordanian royal family, who had previously controled the Muslim Holy sites. Without Mecca and without oil, the Saudis are powerless.

Also begs a few questions about Billy Boy's recent late night tryst in Houston with Prince Abdullah... maybe the feds had the suite wired.
