The Saudis have told Bush to jump. Will Bush say, "How high?"
"Bush, Saudi King talk amid Israel-Gaza bloodshed," from AFP, December 27 (thanks to Michael):
CRAWFORD, Texas (AFP) — Saudi King Abdullah told US President George W. Bush by telephone on Saturday that major countries must take action to halt Israel's attacks on Gaza, the Saudi state news agency SPA reported....
But SPA reported that King Abdullah had discussed "the Israeli aggression against Gaza" and the "implications of continuing Israel's policies of blockade, occupation and torture against the Palestinian people all over the Occupied Territories."
The king also called for "the major countries to shoulder their responsibilities to stop this Israeli attack and save the lives of the innocent and remaining infrastructure in the Palestinian territories."
Abdullah made the call after a meeting in Riyadh with Palestinian President Mahmud Abbas.
