Angler,

...ought to have enough guts to go after Saudi Arabia also...

I absolutely agree, but I think that's effectively what we ARE doing albeit indirectly. Destroying Saddam will be a warning shot over the bow of every Arab dictatorship.

As to beliefs, I reiterate that it is not the masses that are the problem, nor the religion itself. It is the dictatorships and their puppet extremists who twist Islam to their own ends and arouse the masses against the West. Remove them, and moderation will have a chance to prevail.

...we must be very careful about what we are attacking this time. ... We have to pick our targets well.

Couldn't agree more, but targets there must be, not just talk.
