Saudis to the rescue

Interesting. More honesty, decency, loyalty, and common sense from the King of Saudi Arabia than from our president. "In a testy personal telephone call on January 29, King Abdullah told President Obama not to humiliate Mr Mubarak and warned that he would step in to bankroll Egypt if the US withdrew its aid programme, worth $1.5 billion annually. http://thetim.es/fNH3gV
America’s closest ally in the Gulf made clear that the Egyptian President must be allowed to stay on to oversee the transition towards peaceful democracy and then leave with dignity." ibid. http://thetim.es/fNH3gV
