Look who is riding the white horse:

Saudi Arabia will intervene to save Sunni Muslims once US begins Iraq pullout – report

November 29, 2006, 4:01 PM (GMT+02:00)

A former government spokesman, Nawaf Obaid, said Riyadh will use money, weapons or oil power to prevent Iraqi Sunnis from being massacred by Iranian-backed Shiite militias – even at the risk of a regional war. Obaid says his views do not represent those of the Saudi government. DEBKAfile’s Middle East sources note that he appears to speak for a group of very influential Saudis in Washington, including ambassador Prince Turki al-Faisal. US vice president Dick Cheney visited Riyadh Saturday, Nov. 25, ahead of the US president’s talks in Amman Wednesday and Thursday. Obaid listed Saudi options as being: providing assistance to Sunni military leaders – primarily ex-Baathists leading the insurgency; establishing new Sunni brigades, or strangling Iran’s funding of Iraq’s Shiites by boosting oil production and halving prices.

I'm beginning to think it's only a matter of time until we are bowing to Mecca 5 times a day. We are complacent and we are not listening and believing these people when they tell us they are going to kill us. Iran is going to go nuclear and Olmert seems incapable of coherent thought on that so Israel is likely lost. Europe is falling to the Islamisists as we speak and we aren't taking them seriously so we are going to be screwed also.

If you can't tell I'm becoming quite pessimistic about all of this and fully expect a nuclear explosion on American soil in the coming years.
