Another call to Americans to leave our friend and ally Saudi Arabia. This just in from AP:
WASHINGTON – The U.S. government is renewing its call for Americans to leave Saudi Arabia after the recent terrorist attacks, saying the safety of U.S. workers was more important than any effect on oil supplies or the Saudi economy. …
Referring to U.S. workers in Saudi Arabia, State Department spokesman Richard Boucher said, “We first and foremost have a responsibility to Americans. We need to give them our best advice on how to handle any particular situation overseas.”
“As far as the maintenance and continued flow of oil and the economy in Saudi Arabia, that is something I think the Saudis will have to describe, what provisions they can make and how they can operate those facilities.”
