IF MUBARAK FLEES EGYPT, HE COULD FOLLOW ABIDINE BEN ALI TO SAUDI ARABIA

Moshe Phillips explains on News Real Blog why Hosni Mubarak may go to the House of Saud for refuge and retirement if he's ousted:
The so-called Arab Street knows something that most Americans don’t–and that the media has thus far missed.

For decades, Saudi Arabia has sheltered the most brutal, anti-American and anti-Semitic dictators and strongmen that the Islamic world has to offer. Despite half a dozen successive U.S. administrations’ claims to the contrary the Saudis are not the benign trustworthy American allies they seek to be portrayed as. The rogue’s gallery of criminals that the House of Saud has given sanctuary and protection to should be clear evidence of that.

Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, the former president of Tunisia, is just the latest to take advantage of Saudi hospitality.
Spot on, and there's more at the link. It wouldn't surprise me if they'd given haven to nazi war criminals following WW2. Mubarak has proven himself just as bad as many other dictators in the Islamic world, and he'd fit right in with the awful Saudi monarchy.
