&gt; After 9&#x2F;11 we should have taken over Saudi Arabia instead of Iraq since that is where the money came from.<p>You can&#x27;t do that, it would be like declaring war against Islam, since the Saudi are &quot;custodian&quot; of Muslim holly places like  Mecca.<p>Furthermore, while most hijackers were Saudi and Egyptian, ISI, Pakistani secret services financed the attacks. But you can&#x27;t really destabilize Pakistan either, since they have they are an nuclear power.<p>Basically, we are in a situation, I believe,  where western nations are faking their war on terror, for various reasons (they can&#x27;t tackle the Saudi issue, for instance). All the countries that were invaded&#x2F;attacked by the west since 9&#x2F;11, safe from Afghanistan, which was more or less warrant-able, had nothing to do with 9&#x2F;11 : Iraq, Libya, Syria...
