Saudi ambassador in DC slams war opponents. This pathetic Saudi royal family, which created Bin Laden and inspired the Taliban is now trying to save its throne, by any means necessary. This ambassador is very unpopular in Saudi Arabia, and the Crown Prince has largely marginalized him since Sep. 11. Notice that every high ranking member of the House of Saud (including the Crown Prince, Minister of Defense, Head of Intelligence, and this ambassador) has admitted to have met Bin Laden several (or many) times. Should not they be asked why? The White House, however, remains very protective of this family.
