Saudi Arabia will join the WTO

From the Associated Press.

Effective December 11, 2005 they will become the 149th member. They must drop their boycott of Israel.

Under the terms of accession, foreign insurance companies will be permitted to open and operate direct branches in Saudi Arabia. International banks will be able to open up branches under national subsidiaries.

Question: Why would foreign insurance companies and banks wish to become easy targets for Al-Qaeda?
