So, Bush's good friend and dearest buddy in the whole wide world, Prince Bandar of Saudi Arabia, threatened Britain's Tony Blair with another 7/7 attack on Britain unless corruption investigations into the arms deals of Saudi Arabian rulers were halted, huh?

.... Prince Bandar, the head of the Saudi national security council, and son of the crown prince, was alleged in court to be the man behind the threats to hold back information about suicide bombers and terrorists. He faces accusations that he himself took more than £1bn in secret payments from the arms company BAE.
He was accused in yesterday's high court hearings of flying to London in December 2006 and uttering threats which made the prime minister, Tony Blair, force an end to the Serious Fraud Office investigation into bribery allegations involving Bandar and his family.
The threats halted the fraud inquiry, but triggered an international outcry, with allegations that Britain had broken international anti-bribery treaties.
Lord Justice Moses, hearing the civil case with Mr Justice Sullivan, said the government appeared to have "rolled over" after the threats. He said one possible view was that it was "just as if a gun had been held to the head" of the government....

Well! Already I am not in the least fond of Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabians, so this just fuels my particular and virulent hatred against them even more.
Then, there is the pending execution (of a woman, of course!) of Fawza Falih for witchcraft!
Give me a frigging break! This is 2008, not the goddamned 11th century!

The evidence for her condemnation is shoddy, as is all evidence of witchcraft. As far as I am concerned, all Saudi Arabians should be personas non gratas in my country -- unless they disavow their allegiance to Saudi Arabia and their backward form of religion.
Of course, I can never forget -- nor forgive -- the many Saudi Arabians who were involved in the September 11, 2001 attack on my nation, I cannot never forget how many millions, if not billions of dollars, the Saudis spent on that attack and on funding hateful religious schools around the world which constantly preach for the destruction of my nation.
I can never forgive Saudi Arabia for its role in international terrorism and I can never forgive George W. Bush for his close links to these terrorists.
