And yet, when we finally got bin laden, it wasn't in Afghanistan. He moved, easily, with Saudi money. Thousands of Americans were killed with weapons paid for by Saudi money, held by troops recruited and trained with Saudi money. Seems like if we had cut off the Saudi money this thing would have been over a hell of a lot faster.

He didn’t need Saudi money to walk across the border.

It’s weird how much certain people want to blame Saudis for this.

How dare they blame the country most directly involved

Why would the blame the nation that was their primary target? Why would we blame the nation that some were born in rather than the nation that housed and protected the army?

Perhaps because it's the same nation that funded them

Also lol at "some". Yeah, 15 out of 19 is "some".
