True, these militants are not OFFICIALLY tied to the saudis, but You can't forget that they passed through a bunch ( I don't remember how many) checkpoints and were not stopped. I heard that (with the Saudis at least), the princes are divided over whether to support america, because of our vast oil purchases, or to support the militant groups like Al Queida(sp?). If thats the case, then the Saudi government will have some tough choices to make, and I don't doubt that it could come to bloodshed, mabey even something along the lines of a military cu, which wouldn't be good for anybody.
