You talking about Saudi Arabia, the country where most of the 9/11 hijackers were from?
Question, were you in favor of the Iraq invasion of 2003? The one that cost us so much in both lives and money?

In hindsight however 2003 was certainly not the genesis of the world conflict with the Arab countries, the conflicts arose in Biblical times and just has continued and become more modern in nature i.e. weapons of mass destruction, chemical agents, soft targets etc.

I digress back to modern hostilities between Arab countries and the Western world (do we need to take some blame for issues happening in the world around us, of course, we are all, after all humans and we do/did/have made many a faux pas along the way, in that we are a very greedy species and saw BLACK GOLD AKA OIL). In the twentieth century British/American (and when looked at further the Arab countries have been at conflict with the world since the beginning of the Quran) issues came into play with Arab countries:

Once again I digress but looking back at the 3/19/03 war , the Congress including Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer all voted to go to war based upon the Intelligence that they were given. Bush did not choose war in a vacuum.
