Saudi king calls US occupation of Iraq "illegal"
« on: March 28, 2007, 04:55:04 PM »
King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia told Arab leaders on Wednesday that the American occupation of Iraq is “illegal,” and he warned that unless Arab governments settle their differences, foreign powers like the United States would continue to dictate the region’s politics.

The king’s speech, at the opening of the Arab League summit meeting here, underscored growing differences between Saudi Arabia and the Bush administration as the Saudis take on a greater regional leadership role, partly at American urging. The Saudis seem to be emphasizing that they will not be beholden to the policies of their longtime ally....

Last week, the Saudi king abruptly canceled his appearance at an April White House dinner planned in his honor, The Washington Post reported on Wednesday. The official reason given for the cancellation was a scheduling conflict.

Who cares what some camel rapist thinks?!

His regime violates human rights and oppresses women. They are in no position to talk about the USA.

He must be facing some stiff inner pressure in his country and needs to look not like some BUSH puppet.

They're not a part of the "Axis of Evil" though, so they're the good guys right?

The House of Saud are some of the Bush family's closest friends.

Actually, I walk to school. It takes less time than driving and parking there!

But Ann Coulter was right: "invade their countries, kill their leaders, and convert them to Christianity"...

Did she try to enlist in the armed forces and get rejected for weighing 82 pounds?

Or maybe was she planning to let the darkies do the dying for her.

I ride a bike to work myself... I love it. It can be a bit of a pain with that LA traffic, but at least I don't have to worry about parking (I bring it inside up the service elevator) and it helps wake me up.

This was true under Clinton as well, not just Sheik Bush.

Epic intellectual dishonesty.  :)

Yes, something like 90% of them have been found alive and living in various parts of the world.

I could, but it will come from footage that people will say is all CT spin, so you either believe it or you do not.

I will admit that 90% was a made up BS number on my part... but let me say that a large percentage are alive.
