But, say a dozen men from 4 different countries, (Iran, Syria, Indonesia, and France) meet in Afghanistan and receive training from someone from Saudi Arabia. They end up coming here and killing thousands more people.
Then who do you hold responsible? Who do you go to all out war with? The 5 different countries they collectively came from? The country where they were trained? A couple million Muslims right here in the U.S. who knowingly or unknowingly paid for their training, travel, and all explosives & weapons they used with donations to some phony charity?
The problem with all out war is that it is conventional and this is not a conventional enemy.

If those individual leaders of these countries will not account for their citizens crimes, then the US has no other solution but to hold those countries accoutable.
As you said, we are at war with more than the likes of iraq, this is not a singular discourse.
These leaders of these countries must be responsible for their citizens and we shouldn't walk away confused or swayed by the fact that one was a saudi, one was egyptian and another iranian.
Each of these civilians should be punished and if their leaders can not see their own responsibility for their own people, then they will be held culpable.
The saudis have remained a scapegoat while their citizens wreak havoc...
The saudi leaders must be held accountable for these terrorist activities while this type of training/ideal is being practiced on their homeland.
The oil is irrelevant while they overlook such activity coming out of their protocol.
I really would like to see us back away from the saudis in total.
