I think your head is in the sand, mainly because there is so much the damn stuff in arabia.

If you mean that the head of the Islamo-Fascist "snake" lies in Saudi Arabia, I would COMPLETELY AGREE.

But Iraq is the battleground in which those elements in Saudi Arabia will be undermined. Defeat for Islamo-Fascism in Iraq will undermine their power in Saudi Arabia bacause they will have difficulty explaining how "god's will" was not fulfilled as a result of their militant ideology.

Taking on Saudi Arabia would require full mobilization of our forces and should only occur as a last resort in the event that the Saudi Royal Family, corrupt and despotic as they are, falls. Right now we should be focused on stabilizing and securing Iraq as an example of how there IS an alternative to Islamo-Fascism and that Islam is NOT incompatible with Democratic values.
