    Good guys/bad guys is such a relative term from the American perspective.

    I'm sure if the interest is there, the Saudis will soon be branded "bad guys", even if they essentially do what they are doing now-practicing one of the most repressive forms of Islam.

    In fact, I can even bet on that moment-when the cost/benefit of invading Saudi Arabia for its' oil outweighs the cost/benefit of maintaining that uneasy relationship with the house of Saud and the Wahhabis.

    As a perfect example-(See: Hussein, Saddam)

    I clearly remember the United States giving the Taliban $43 million.
