AI Thread Summary
Family members of 9/11 victims express frustration over the Obama administration's opposition to their lawsuit against Saudi officials for alleged financial ties to the attackers, citing the Foreign Sovereign Immunity Act as a potential reason. The discussion highlights concerns that U.S. interests in Saudi oil and financial ties influence political decisions, with some arguing that the region's wealth fuels terrorism. There is a belief that the religious education system in Saudi Arabia contributes to extremism, and a hope that the depletion of oil resources could lead to global peace. Additionally, the demographic changes in Saudi Arabia, with a growing youth population facing economic challenges, are seen as potential catalysts for unrest. The conversation underscores the complex interplay between oil, politics, and terrorism in the context of U.S.-Saudi relations.

Probably because of the Foreign Sovereign Immunity Act of 1976.
 
In my opinion Obama administration do that because of the oil and the money. We hope the oil in Saudi Arabia , Kuwait and Emirates run out quickly , when this happen the world will become more peace without terrorism or torture. The truth that many know is that the religious education system in Saudi Arabia is one of the reasons terrorism , and the money of the oil of Saudi Arabia was used for financing terrorism.

There is another element to the terrorism. Forty years ago Saudi Arabia only had a few million people and the oil money went a long way. Now they have about 30 million people with almost 40% of the population under 40 (see: https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/SA.html) and the oil money doesn't go nearly as far. You take rich people and make them poor and they get angry. It is that anger that fuels the terrorism in my opinion.

Oil is so convenient, isn't it? It means we never actually have to think -- we can just blame anything we don't like on oil.

Really? You do realize scarcity of vital resources is historically one of the biggest motivating factors for war, right?

Though I suppose it won't initially be so bad -- after all, aren't there are some pretty major Western oil deposits that can be tapped if the Middle Eastern ones run dry. Of course, do you think the Islamist* radicals would let peace happen if it meant that the Middle East was dependant on the West for oil?

*: Islamist being the adjective describing someone who follows Islamism. (As opposed to Islamic, which refers to any follower of Islam)

Just ONCE, I wanted to see a post titled Status Update that was not a blatant, annoying spam post by a new member. So here it is. Today was a good day here in Northern Wisconsin. Fall colors are here, no mosquitos, no deer flies, and mild temperature, so my morning run was unusually nice. Only two meetings today, and both went well. The deer that was road killed just down the road two weeks ago is now fully decomposed, so no more smell. Somebody has a spike buck skull for their...
Thread 'In the early days of electricity, they didn't have wall plugs'
Hello scientists, engineers, etc. I have not had any questions for you recently, so have not participated here. I was scanning some material and ran across these 2 ads. I had posted them at another forum, and I thought you may be interested in them as well. History is fascinating stuff! Some houses may have had plugs, but many homes just screwed the appliance into the light socket overhead. Does anyone know when electric wall plugs were in widespread use? 1906 ad DDTJRAC Even big...
