Maybe the Saudis should stop funding them and the new jihaddi madrasses they're building in Pakistan.

Now THERE'S a novel idea! And while they're at it, maybe stop funding Jihadist brainwashing schools in Europe and North America. Hey, how about that!.

The House of Saud has more enemies than just Al-Qaeda. This guy could have been any one of them as easily. Or it could have been one of the prince's cousins.

"The House of Saud has more enemies than just Al-Qaeda."
Not really.
Islamic insurgencies are the greatest threat in the Islamic world in general and petro-sultanates in particular. Osama types practically salivate at the chance of getting trillions of dollars worth of loot.

Agreed. However, "Osama types" are not Al-Qaeda. So what was your point?

For You my friend,

Imperial Hubris by Michael Scheuer, Ex CIA officer, Al-qaida, Bin-Laden was his work.

Understand the problem, then you will get an answer.

OBL is not after Oil or money, i am not getting a great felling writing this.I recommend you read this book for a better understanding of OBL & his thinking.

Not many chickens in the desert.
Regardless, U.S won't let Islamicist chickens get even within 10 miles of the said roost.
And if they do the roost will be taken apart within days by U.S.
Count on it, habibi.
Remember Kuwait?

>He was a Saudi but was based in Yemen

Just like 15 of the hijackers on 9/11. Another Saudi.

maybe the problem isn't Al-Q or Afghanistan.

MAYBE THE PROBLEM IS SAUDI ARABIA!

Al-Qaeda is the Saudi Royal Familys mafia.
They profit from the heroin and hashish trade.

OUR dependence on Oil? What kind of nonsense is that. Can you name one country that is NOT dependent on oil?
Try thinking....
