So the US support of Saudi Arabia would have nothing to do with Bin Laden's dislike of us? Al Queda was formed to get rid of the brutal Saudi government and would spread to help fight the Soviets in Afghanistan. Remember Al Queda didn't pop up in the early 90s.
Bin Laden has also called for a end to Saddam's government in Iraq since Saddam follows a more secular form of government.

People always attack the Saudi government over the factor that it's brutal. Who is exactly nicer or better that wants to step in??? The thing the Saudis should be attacked on is financing many of the outlets and people who are anti-American - many of the same ones who went on to join Al Qaeda. That is what they deserve a lashing for.
