Bush's new Iraq policy

[Abcdxxxx]

I'd like to hear more about this theory that Cheney requested the Saudi's should threaten that they might "allign themselves with Al Qaeda" as the press reports it, and back the Sunni side. I mean, what about the Saudi interests or their behavior would suggest that's not their own self serving intention? Wasn't the entire premise of a Saudi friendship working in the best interest of the USA a farce to begin with? Now you're arguing that they would take the fall and suggest that their threats to undermind the US are just a choreographed favor...because last I checked, that's what the Saudis do best...they undermind us and act self serving. Then again, what could the Saudis want with a Sunni-Shia civil war? It's not like Mecca is at play or anything. Oh..wait.
