Saudi Arabia has told American military officials that the kingdom would make its airspace, air bases and important operations centers available to the United States in the event of war with Iraq

Suddenly things are coming together even from questionable places. What has taken place during interrogations/inspections that has not been exposed by the media as of yet? Something is fueling all these movements of the past two days.

There was also something about Saudi Arabia finally being put on the terrorism watch list. It is good to know we are finally keeping an eye on folks coming in from Saudi Arabia when they enter this country.

Saudis knows that once we attack Iraq, they will be in a firing line of Iraq
so they are cooperating with US so they can get our protection from Iraqis.

I've been to SA, and women and third world country workers are treated terribly.
I still don't trust SA, they have sheltered number of terrorist organizations, and
they are trying to appease both US and terrorist organizations, which will not work,
and something will give, like toppling of King Fahd and his ruling family,
which will cause chaos in SA and surrounding neighbors.
