I agree. The United States needs to hold Saudi Arabia accountable for their past and current indescretions. In this case I do agree that it is about oil. Its also all our fault.

The United States, and even the entire Western world has GIVEN the Middle East the power and ability to terrorize. We have allowed ourselves to be dependent on their fuel to the point that the very oil we buy pays for the terrorists and and weapons that are later used against us. Where do you think the Middle East would be without Western dollars buying their oil? Most likely they would be what Afghanistan is currently. A third world nation. We have essentially given barbarians the ability to be barbaric.

Before anyone starts screaming at me for being politically incorrect, lets look at one simple fact. The Middle East is filled with nations with nearly UNLIMITED natural resources, and look at their track record. Its one of religious and political oppression and constant battles in the name of Allah, who in their own religion finds violence abhorrent.

When the history of the world is written, The Middle East will be recorded as a massive failure. Unlimited resources with NOTHING to show for it but waste and ruthlessness.
