Time to leave Saudi??
Reader comment on item: After Saddam? Remaking the Mideast
Submitted by Mark H (United Kingdom), Mar 21, 2003 at 16:31
Maybe with the fall of Saddam Hussein, American troops can leave Saudi Arabia for ever. All bases could be closed down as well. After all this was the main reason for Osama Bin Laden starting his campaign of terror.With Saudi Arabia less important to the US, maybe pressure could be put on the Saudi prince's to start condemning terrorism and stop abuse of Human Rights in their country.
