Good description of the Saudi leaders

I would add that any 'money trail' leading from the Saudi royals through several hands and ending up in the accounts of Sep. 11th terrorists isn't evidence of Saudi involvement in Al Queda - it's yet another example of how their "philanthropy" extends to paying protection money to the Al Queda terrorist thugs to keep them from attacking the Saudi royal family. Rather than enact meaningful reforms and deal seriously with the threat of Al Queda, the House of Saud would rather just pay them off and hope they go away and attack somebody else, while these pathetic royals continue their carefree frolic in the resorts in the South of Spain...

And the very possibility that the US/UK led alliance may install a democratic regime in a post-Saddam Iraq is exactly why most Arab states oppose the military intervention in the first place. Who among the Arab dictators wants to see any real democratic reforms take hold in their midst?
