Bloodshed in Saudi Arabia

Explosions and gun battles in Riyadh resulted in the deaths of 9 terrorists and 1 bystander.
RIYADH, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Islamic extremists set off bombs and battled with police in the Saudi capital Wednesday night, leaving nine militants and one bystander dead and causing oil prices to jump as the insurgents signaled they will keep up attacks despite the kingdom’s crackdown on al-Qaida.
I thought one of OBL’s pet peeves was the fact that US forces were based in the Arabian peninsula. Since they are no longer there why does al-Qaeda continue to target the Kingdom? The answer is simple. Their grievances are trumped up and their demands meaningless. The terrorists will continue down the road of hate and destruction regardless of what anyone says, does or gives them.
