Ok ok ok. This is what I got out of the movie. I watched it. This is what made it through my cynicism filter:
The Saudis have a lot of influence in our gonvernment. The Saudis and the Bush's go way back and have a personal as well as financial relationship. This relationship may get the Saudis more access and perhaps sympathy from the grovernment than many other nations have.
Oh, and the Saudis take actions often that are not in the best interests of our country. In fact many of their actions are not those of a friend.
Iraq: The primary reason why we invaded Iraq was because of their stockpiles of WMD. Which we have not found yet.
Patriot Act: LAw enforcement used the 9/11 crisis to pass security measures they had wanted for years but were unable to pass.
I think thats it. I'll have to think about that.
