You murdered 3,000 Americans. I experience a deep alientation with Saudi Arabia. Go away and take your Wahabbist tained money with you.

They never invested in the US as a favor to us, it was because they knew it was a safe place. Let them take their money and invest it somewhere else less safe or maybe they can sew it into their matresses.

or in the process of selling their homes

Some of their homes are pretty gaudy, I wonder how they'll find buyers with enough money and lack of taste.

The Saudis are angry about negative press criticism in the U.S. after it was reported that 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers were Saudi nationals.

It's a fact. What have they got to be angry about.

I hate to come off like the Black Helicpter Coterie but is it possible that Saudis know something that we dont?

People dont earn that kind of money being emotional twits....you do it through smart business sense.

They were either cashing out in order not to get soaked by the market or they think there is some other reason to pull their money out before they lose it.

The House of Saud is the diseased whore that gave birth to and sustains radical/militant Islam...

The treacherous two faced lying bitch has earned our hatred, and deserves to feel the wrath of a brutal American vengence.

I had been told, years ago (I think during the Nixon Administration) that the Saudis had some kind of agreement with the US govt that the amount of Arab investment/ownership in American business would be kept secret. Now that the Saudis want to intimidate us, they're willing to reveal that it's at least "tens of billions" of dollars. Even though the Arab propagandists were among those spreading the story that the entire American economy was controlled by Jews.

The Saudis invested here, not out of friendship for America, but because - in Moslem countries - interest is verboten, even on loans and investments; but they could get interest, compounded constantly, from US banks and bonds. I'm willing to bet that their sudden pull-out is not based so much on Saudi patriotism as it is on the Enron-type debacles. Soon they'll be back, making their secretive investments again, because the lure of un-Islamic interest is too tempting.

About 20 years ago Jane Fonda made a truly awful movie, Rollover, which displayed the economic sophistication of a junior high school student, to the effect that the Saudis already owned us, but if we complained about it then they would make the US economy collapse completely.
