    Yes, absolutely Ive been shouting this since 911! Bin Ladden still recieves msajor funding fromhis family's construction company, as well as looking at human rights record the Saudi's are as bad as Saddam was.

    I think our government is very aware of the Saudi Arabian ties to terrorism. In fact from what I understand the hijackers were specifically chosen because of their Saudi Arabian backgrounds.

    There is a delicate balance between the US and Saudi Arabia. They need us for protection and we need their oil. Simple as that. I saw a BBC documentary called "The House of Saud" which explained a lot about this relationship. It would be worth looking into.

    Good question though.

    You also might want to consider that Bin Laden has tried and still wants to overthrow the Saudi government. That might tell you something more about their government. I'm not saying they're perfect, but be careful of who you pick your fights with. One at a time.

    Even if proved, no country in the world has the power to condemn her or pass any resolutions or statements which will deteriote the situation in the country bcoz as she is the world's highest oil producer, any huge drop or rise in oil prices, we would see popular multinational companies being closed down.
