$20 Billion Deal

President George W. Bush will sell $120 million in precision-guided bombs as part of an overall arms package worth roughly $20 billion to Saudi Arabia.

Well, this is again another money scam to make the American weapon industry happier. And what does American get from this deal? Wouldn't such deal irritate other countries in the Middle East even more? What about all the talk about peace?

Peace can't happen with weapons!

President George W. Bush sees this deal as a way to pressure Iran more. However, Saudi officials have sounded a skeptical note recently about Bush's drive for more diplomatic and financial pressure on Iran, which the president has emphasized almost daily on his swing through the Middle East. In addition, Prince Saud al-Faisal, said at a recent news conference. "We are neighbors to Iran in the Gulf region, and as such we are careful that peace and tranquility reign between the region's countries. We have relations with Iran, and we talk to them, and if we felt any danger we would not hesitate to discuss it with them."

So if even the personal friends of President George W. Bush disagree with his approach, why is he still going ahead with his ideas? Can’t he hear the warning, friendly advises? Or is he too arrogant to hear the truth?

This behavior is very scary!
