Sure its was a sensitive issue for some of them. Our presence in Iraq is as well, and for some it would be even if our presence didn't involved quelling an insurgency. That doesn't make a military presence in Dharan or in Al-Anbar province a violation of holy ground.

I didn't say it did. I said the Arabs believe that military bases in Saudi Arabia was a violation of sacred ground.
