The CIA analyst reduced everything to greed over Arab Oil and loss of autonomy to Arabs as a result.

The CIA analyst was focused on the political struggle for economic resources, which is a valid concern but does not explain terrorism. We can not deny that these things contribute to the struggles for world stability.

Terrorists do not want to be left alone. They do not want to find a home of freedom and establish a new equilibrium of world peace. They want to band together and take over the world region by region to establish something new. They have a different vision of the destiny of man that is incompatable with democratic freedoms.

They definitely do not represent the desires of other Arabs or Muslims. They believe they have the right motives and that everyone else must be controlled to live in the right way.

And Saudi Arabia is ruled a corrupt Monarc. What does that red herring have to do with leaving terrorists to do their worst?
