It has come out that the Saudi's, good personal friends of the Bush family (Google "Bandar Bush" if you don't know anything about the Presidents family connections with the Saudis), were given some advance notice on the start of the war with Iraq.
Now, with elections that might go badly for the Republicans looming, a large number of American Navy vessels have been accumulating in waters off the Mideast. Some have speculated George Bush will attack Iran before the election because either a) he hopes to sway the election to Republicans or b) Bush thinks that if Democrats take control of one or both houses of congress he may actually be held accountable for his incompetence and may not be able to attack Iran later.
And now? The Saudi's are securing their oil facilities. From terrorist attacks? Perhaps. Or perhaps they know attacks with Iran are imminent and as one of the U.S. biggest business partners they feel they might be a target of reprisals.
Wouldn't be the first time that the Bush family has put interests of Saudi Arabia ahead of the interests of the American people, after all this is the same President who let the Saudi members of bin Laden's extended family leave the country before they could even be decently questioned after 9-11.
Only us poor lied to Americans may be the last to know if George is going to plunge us into an even bigger mess in Iran than the one we are mired in already in Iraq.
