I wasn't against the Iraq war because I am pacifists, but because Iraqis didn't do 9/11 [View all]

The Saudis sponsored Al Qaeda, not the Iraqis.

The Saudis sponsor Isis, Boko Haram, and Chechnyan terrorists like the Boston Bombers. Why no regime change against the Saudis. Since they use their oil money to create terror against Westerners it would also be justified to take their oil. Why are they never in our sights?

Why don't we do regime change against regimes that actually fund islamic fundamentalism and antiwestern terror. Why are we constantly being misdirected toward regimes like Iraq and Syria, that are authoritarian but no threat to US. Meanwhile we arm Saudi terrorists groups to overthrow them, and they use the money, and weapons to attack Westerners.
