If they knew of a terror plot to be carried out in the U.S., I wonder if they would have done anything.

Up until 9-11, and attacks in their own country in particular; Saudi Arabia was lax on terrorist financing and groups in their country :

It sounds much too convenient. Being so willing to link the arrests to Iran and Al-Qaeda make me suspect it's phony. I hope I'm wrong and 173 actual bad guys were taken off the scene - I just don't have a lot of trust that its so...or is it more justification for an attack on Iran ...
