Conspiracy? What conspiracy? "At least 90 percents of the trips I made overseas during my seven years as DCI were to the Middle East or to the border nations of Central and South Asia." George Tenet, At the Center of the Storm: My years at the CIA, (NY: HarperCollins, 2007), p. 36. And this: "Saudi Arabia was one of my most frequent stops; I went there nine times, a clear indication of the importance of the US-Saudi relationship." (p. 40)
