Riyadh – King Abdullah has expressed his comfort for the relations with President Bush, in person, and his administration. Nevertheless, he expressed conservations regarding the congress situation. He said that his country has warned the United States against the consequences of the war on Iraq. The results came as expected on behalf of Saudi Arabia, "The war has served Iran."
The king strongly condemned terrorism in Iraq and the world. As regards Iraq, he said that everyday the blood of innocent Sunnis and Shiaas is shed, which Saudi Arabia was worried about from the beginning.
The King admitted that there is little hope that Iraq would come out of its ordeal very fast. Nevertheless, he said that Saudi Arabia is currently attempting to coordinate among several parties in Iraq after it refrained from doing that at the beginning.
He noticed that many Arab countries have recently started to assist Iraqi people. Yet, in his well-known openness, he said, "The Arab leaders agree together and then they do not execute their agreement."
With respect to his country, in specific, he said, "We are working for the goodness of everyone. Thanks to Allah, we never harmed anyone. In case we are incapable of achieving goodness, we don’t do evil. "
