Or perhaps he wants to show them how much dhimmitude they can expect from him?

Right.  Let's pretend that Arabs don't exist until either they attack us or we kill them in pre-emptive strikes.

See, this is how political business is done.  Gone are the days of Bush's feeble "you're with us or against us" diplomacy.  That's a dead end.  No progress there.

Of course if Bush were really concerned with battling the scourge of terrorism, we would have acted against Saudi Arabia by now.

Quote
Saudi Arabia remains the world's leading source of funds for al-Qaida and other extremist groups, according to the Bush administration's top financial counter-terrorism official. Stuart Levey, a Treasury undersecretary, told the Senate Finance Committee on Tuesday that the Saudi government has not taken sufficient steps to stem the flow of money to terrorist organizations or to bar wealthy citizens from funding extremism through charitable contributions. "Saudi Arabia today remains the location where more money is going to terrorism, to Sunni terror groups and to the Taliban than any other place in the world," Level told the committee.

It looks like some sort of affinity exists btn the Uniter and the House of Saud.

...I mean Bush keeps kissing the guy in public...Just what the hell do they do behind closed doors?

Maybe I'm wrong.  Maybe Bush is 'engaging' the Arabs in some meaningful "dialogue".

I have always thought GWB was a compromised man because of his relations to the Saudis.  however, so was his father as will as BJ Clinton.
