The veep may have huffed and puffed all across the Middle East about Iran, but his visit to Saudi Arabia wasn't exactly successful. From Arab News, a Saudi newspaper, citing "sources" in Saudi Arabia:

King Abdullah urged Cheney to pressure Israel to seal a peace deal with the Palestinians before US President George W. Bush leaves office in January next year, sources said.

The sources said Saudi Arabia was not happy with the "slow" pace of US efforts to push the Middle East peace process. There has been a lack of US pressure on Israel to reach a peace agreement and end the building of settlements and halt all excavations around Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem.

Discussing Iran's nuclear program and its growing regional influence, the king confirmed his opposition to any US military strike, sources said.

Saudi Arabia, along with other Gulf Arab countries, sees negotiations as the best way to ease tension between the US and Iran.
