And we all know which side the Sauds are on.

France and Saudi Arabia? That’s nothing! Get a load of France and Iran!

Correct me of I am wrong, but don’t the house of Saud and the house of Bush enjoy a very friendly relationship?
You wrong DB? Never!
But seriously, I don’t know what kind of relationship they REALLY enjoy, although on the surface it seems rather friendly. Could have something to do with oil, don’t ya think?
I bet you expected me to defend Bush, right? Wrong! His stance on Israel is starting to really p*ss me off. Not that Kerry would have been any better.
Why yes, I believe it does have something to do with oil. Correct as usual, Dave!
And I wonder if perhaps their shared interests in the black gold, might have fueled (ha!) some of Mr. Bush’s rather odd mid-east policy discisions.
One of these days I really must rent F/911 so I can see what Mr. Moore really says about the subject. (I’ve only read the reviews)
From the looks of it, palm oil.

One major difference is that Bush doesn’t droole all over the Saudis. Another is that the US Senate and Congress don’t rubberstamp Bush’s built-in tollerance for the Saudis.
Micheal Moore? Oh please! Spare yourself the indoctrination!
