Great graphic. Be careful... Matamoros got banned for posting a photo of Mecca burning...

Pay them $1 a year for 100 trillion years...

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I have had luck by not including any rhetoric. One picture is worth a thousand words, anyway.

[Caipirabob]

Really, when I saw the title I laughed and thought "must be the onion". Lock and load...

[ErnBatavia]

I'll bet that there's an American attorney (or 6 or 8) in this mix someplace. And I'll also bet that the likes of O'Reilly end up giving the scheister lots of face time.

In other news, the Germans announce a suit against the Jews for damages related to the holocaust.

[Enemy Of The State]

No problem! Would you like that payment enclosed in 2 or 3 missiles?

"...A group of Saudis plan to sue the U.S. government and media organizations for the alleged psychological and financial damage they suffered in the aftermath of September 11..."

Well, that's nothing compared to the article I read yesterday that said Saudi Bankers had already taken between 200 and 500 Billion dollars out of investments in America.(What a great way to help the American economy,eh?)This is a nothing lawsuit and will amount to nothing,unless Tom Daschle decides to give them some our tax dollars,and don't put it past him either.

Tens of Saudi nationals seriously plan to file lawsuits

if they didn't seriously plan to file then I wouldn't take them seriously. SHEESH, this is really Reuters?

[Michael2001]

They have no shame.

I read a little article by JR Nyquistthis morning, talking about a divide and conquer strategy being used by the enemy to force a split between the West and the Arabs. This looks like another drive of the wedge, right here.

That doesn't make any sense since the Arabs are the enemy.

[kidd]

LOL. You beat me to it.

Is that the same lawsuit filed by family members of a guy who died in a concentration camp? He's the one who fell off of a guard tower......

As part of National Military Appreciation Month, the Department of Defense is gathering signatures on a brief message thanking the men and women of the U.S. military for defending our freedom. The compiled list of names will be sent out to our soldiers at the end of the month. So far, there are only about 546,000 names. It is really easy. The web page brings up a space to type your name, city and state.

I'll bet that Dershowitz is offering to work on the Sawed-Eyes' case for a small fee.....

[Frank_Discussion]

It makes sense in that Saudi Arabia used to be our "friend" but now they're planning on pulling scads of money out of the US, and any other Arab allies may start to sway that way.

I'm not disagreeing with you, BTW. I'm just saying that the true colors are beginning to fly.

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

I guess this proves it.There is no difference between a courthouse and a whorehouse.If i were the judge i would invite the media into the courtroom,hold up the motion or petition and set about tearing it to shreds followed by it going to the trash can."NOT IN THIS COURT YOU AIN'T"!

[M. T. Cicero II]

I've had enuf! (Actually, I had enuf on 9/11.) Let's just nuke all of these @^%#^@*'s! Since we have no allies anyway, who cares?

[dmeara]

They are kidding, right?

[pfflier]

Tens of Saudi nationals..

Very strange syntax
