| #4 Perhaps we didn't want to train them well enough to think they could beat Israel the next time I'd just as soon have us be the gatekeepers of any significant military force in that region. Muslim just don't seem to have much of a knack for inspiring any confidence in those around them. |

| #2 I'm not sure why we didn't do this a long time ago (Iran/Iraq war time frame). Create a sort of Nato on the Gulf as a way to train them to defend themselves and keep the oil flowing. Force them to buy into their own protection with blood and oil. |

| #1 They sound like they have a serious case of the heebie-jeebies that the Shia might take over the Holy Places and start beheading Wahabbist douchebags... Me, I'm color-blind in that spectrum. |
