			<description><![CDATA[I must be living in an alternate universe. While I might understand American officials showing up for the funeral out of political concerns and respect, having Dempsey sponsor an essay to "honor" him? Utilizing the National Defense University? Especially given the Saudis' checkered history with us! Have we no military leaders in the USA that deserve that distinction? No Medal of Honor recipients? The Army, especially Dempsey, has gone mad.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Saudis throw around huge amounts of cash to spread their influence. There was a Congressional investigation after 9/11 into Wahabbist hate literature being spread through American mosques, funded by the Saudis. More recently, the Saudis have given large endowments to universities to fund 'Middle Eastern Studies' departments that are hostile to Israel & American foreign policy (pre-Obama). The bottom line- the Saudis buy all sorts of friends. They've paid off many terrorists, too. Nothing speaks more powerfully than money, and America is more corrupt than ever in this regard. Plus, Obama is an Islamist sympathizer.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I couldn't agree more with this post. Most of the terrorists that took control of the airplanes on 9/11/2001 were Saudi nationals and were funded with Saudi money.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I am with you, brother. I can't help but wonder how many of his family's millions helped to fund the plot to knock down the Trade Center buildings on 9/11. So let's encourage all those in our own DOD to write essays that praising the man and his countrymen. Really, Gen. Dempsey? Really?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I don't trust the House of Saudi! :-? They allow terrorist (whabbist) schools to operate with impunity in their pitiful country! :sad: I also strongly believe members of said family are secretly funding and supporting murdering Muslim fanatics! :eek: The current leaders of this country at ALL levels are ALL fools! :o]]></description>

			<title>Makes sense to me</title>

			<description><![CDATA[Given the very imminent swing in Saudi leadership, it makes sense to me. The King was 90, the recent King was close, around 80, and the newest King is 70. The Crown Prince isn't that far behind. However, the Deputy Crown Prince (2nd in line after Crown Prince) is a bit younger. To understand your future, it helps to understand the past. Hence, we need to get a good read, now while there's stability, before the future pivot. If there's lessons to be learned, do it now while we have influence of a developing King. Then later, he is more likely to understand our motives, trust us, and all the other benefits of a close relationship with our only stable partner in the Middle East.]]></description>
