James Baker’s Statement on Jobs and Iraq
I read the article about Saudi women being denied the right to drive (Part A, Nov. 15). It is amazing to me that we are sending 400,000-plus Americans to risk their lives in defense of people who have such prejudices. Your article discusses the Saudis’ concerns about “contamination” by U.S. soldiers. I say, let them be contaminated by their Muslim brothers and sisters from Iraq. Bring our guys home now.
