"Have you seen the documents, or did you just read "reports" of them? "

Thanks for demonstrating that you are unwilling to believe any bad thing said about Saddam unless you can shown ironclad proof. Yet you leap to believe non-sensical things that support your opinion. Like for example, your alleged belief that Saddam's government may not have known anything at all about the many world famous terrorists sheltering in Iraq.

"Do you know how much money it is "reported" that was funneled to terrorist organizations by Saudi Arabia?"

A lot I'm sure. But it is likely now all in the past given the periodic battles which now occur in SA between al Qaida and Saudi security forces. Also I haven't seen anything which ever said Saudi government funds were involved but rather "charitable" funds from individuals.

"And I don't oppose military action....I supported Desert Storm "

Ah, you claim to have once supported the use of American power but it was 15 years ago - long before there was an internet record to verify. All I know for sure is you oppose the war on terror in toto, you opposed taking action against Afghanistan or al Qaida in Afghanistan after 911 (presumably you still oppose the UN/NATO effort there - since you were "agin" it from the getgo), and you opposed the NATO intervention in the Balkans.

You've posted a bunch of accusatory stuff about Saudi Arabia. OK, given that - what if anything do you favor DOING in regard to SA? Other than nothing, that is.

"I'm ashamed for you almost every time I read your posts- and especially ashamed for you that you need to fabricate things about other posters. That is really pathetic."

Yes, I realize your "Sgt. Schultz" defense of Saddam was embarrassing. And I know it angered you to have that pointed out and you feel a need to retaliate. That's fine - I have a very thick hide.
