"Therefore, should it reduce or rid American politics of the noxious fumes of Saudi influence (for some of its manifestations, see my article on "The Scandal of U.S.-Saudi Relations"), I do not see this development as particularly harmful from the point of view of U.S. interests. (December 5, 2007)"
