Joel Mowbray, in an opinionjournal.com excerpt from his book, Dangerous Diplomacy, details and explains the cozy relationship between Saudi Arabia and the U.S. State Department. The number of ex-State officials currently feeding at the Saudi "trough" is staggering, especially when you consider the implicit assumption that current officials expect they too will be "taken care of" by the Saudis when they retire from State. In the meantime, our policy toward Saudi Arabia is utterly corrupt.
