Fred,
The whole US buildup in the region perhaps is not for Iraq but to take over Saudi Arabia? When i started writing this sentence i was joking. What if saudi financing of Al Quaida is a bigger problem that we can imagine and the only way of stopping terror is to take their leaders and leading families out? This story that got me thinking about this was on 60 Minutes a few weeks ago if i remember correctly. Mike

Of course Bush used Iraq for his election agenda. If not, what would he talk about? Booming economy? Improved homeland security? That little bit of a budget deficit you guys have? As it is, he made it look like there was a great threat from Iraq and so the country united behind the banner and the president.

I am in the East Coast early June. I do not know the details for now but we will keep in touch.
