    I don’t feel safe with the Saudis either. My husband and I took a red eye from Portland, Oregon to Detroit on May 11. We read in our newspaper a day or two later that a Saudi was arrested in the Detroit Airport the day we were there. They found a pressure cooker in his luggage and a page was missing from his passport.
