I'd say Saudi was the #2 terror sponsor after Afghanistan when we started this campaign.
If I were to list the threats, I'd say
1. Afghanistan
2. Saudi Arabia
3. Iran
4. Iraq
5. Syria
6. Libya
7. Sudan
We did the right thing going into Afghanistan right away. I also think we were right to make Iraq the second to go, because Iran and Saudi, IMHO, are tough nuts to crack. Saudi has a hostile population, and Iran has hostile terrain. If you can get yourself in a position to threaten those guys by putting forces in Iraq, and in the process, take out a state sponsor of these groups, you've made a solid move.
Still, I wish there was an easy answer to the Saudi problem, because you and I know they are sending cash to Al Qaeda and these other groups as I sit here typing, and I can't begin to estimate how many could die because of it.
I would put Syria ahead of Iraq, and although they aren't Islamic Fundamentalists North Korea because of their dangerous weapons program. Pakistan would also be high up on that list I don't trust Musharaff.. We were never going to do anything with Syria or Iran by going into Iraq
Saudi Arabia is a mess, by befriending the government Bush has turned a mess into a disaster. Going to war with them would have been very tough no quuestion about it, but all the secretive stuff is miind boggiling. He says that we will do everything to we can to stop terrorism and get the ones that attacked us. Meanwhile #1 in both has become our allies. He said we will find out everything about the attacks, but refuses to relase info, blacks info out from reports vital to that
