BLOCKBUSTER testimony
Reader comment on item: Hearing on "Should the United States Do More to Help U.S. Citizens Held against Their Will in Saudi Arabia?"

Submitted by SallyVee (United States), Jun 17, 2002 at 03:53

All about GREED. Old story which never ceases to amaze me. Seems so obvious now that Dr. Pipes has come right out and explained it all so clearly. This is just an incredible read and it makes me so mad I could spit. I ask everyone to copy the printer-friendly version and distribute this testimony as far and as wide as possible. It is the least we can do when a man steps up so fearlessly and challenges the real powers that be.

Obsequious is an excellent word and fits our behavior to a tee. Urgent is another important word, and it is truly urgent that the lures and payola from the Saudis be immediately circumvented!

My deepest respect and gratitude, as always, to Dr. Daniel Pipes.
