Treason for sale
Larisa at-Largely, January 14, 2008
We know that there are a number of Saudi royals sympathetic to the Jihadi cause. We also know that many in the Saudi royal family fund terrorism in general and al Qaeda in particular. We know that the majority of foreign fighters in Iraq are Saudi nationals – killing our troops. We know too that the majority of 9/11 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. Yet, the US has continued to supply the Saudis with weapons, despite their role as being the world sponsor of terrorism. The latest is as follows:
“RIYADH (Reuters) – U.S. President George W. Bush, trying to counter Iran’s growing military clout, made clear his commitment on Monday to go ahead with a major arms sale to Saudi Arabia as he began his first visit to the Islamic kingdom.
Just hours after his arrival in Riyadh, the U.S. administration said it notified Congress of its intention to offer the Saudis a controversial package of advanced weaponry as part of a multibillion-dollar deal with Gulf Arab allies.”
Sorry? If I recall we were fighting a war on terror and yet we are providing advanced weapons to the terrorists? How the hell is this not treason? Seriously, I want a Constitutional scholar to tell me how this is not treason. The Saudi regime may be Bush’s ally in the mythical war on terra, but they are no ally of the US, and they are certainly no ally of Israel or or India, or to any other democracy in the world.
Oh did I mention what types of weapons we will be handing to the Saudis? Our deal includes – sit down now – Joint Direct Attack Munition (JDAM) bomb kits.
Let’s hear a big round of applause for George W. Bush and his idiot supporters….

Do not pass go, George.
It is treason* — the Saudis have been in there churning things up for a long time — who knows, probably at Bush’s behest.
Treason has never bothered BushCo., as we all know. And afterall, you wouldn’t want to see the relationship between the Bushies and the Saudis go array, now would you!!!!

get away with not only allowing Saudi a pass after 15 of 19 9/11 hijackers were Saudis–instead invading Iraq–but it’s mindboggling that our “representatives” are letting them give Saudi weapons!
since they can consistently get away with it.
This list is updated on a regular basis.

it speaks its own truth…….
the house of saud is the bush families principle buisness partners in this war on terror….
we give them money, they blow shit up, we chase a ghost, we give them money…..
this is a game the bush family is familiar with from earlier generations…..
funding both sides of a fascist conflict……
This most recent blatant complicit hypocritical aggregious stupid dangerous action from the administration, and the apparent condonement from Congress – especially Lantos – it just screams of tyranny. It IS tyranny, by definition. They’re flaunting it.
Congress needs to heed the legislation submitted by Weiner and Wexler to stop this.
In addition, Bush and Cheney seriously need to be impeached, tried and convicted for war crimes.
