The Saudis are calling the US occupation of Iraq illegal.* I'm not sure I understand what's going on there. The US occupation of Iraq made the gajioillionaire Saudis into fantasticamajillionaires. And this is the way they repay their long-time partners in crime?
The Bush family has been doing business with the Saudi royal family and the bin Ladens for generations (see American Dynasty by Kevin Phillips). For the Saudis to condemn the actions of a Bush presidency is...well...weird. Maybe they smell blood in the water.
