| Al-Jubeir Defends Sending Money to Families of Suicide Bombers | |
| 2003-06-12 | |
Adel al-Jubeir, an advisor to Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah, defended his country's policy of giving money to families of suicide bombers. "We give money to families in need... Are some of those families, families who have had a suicide bomber? Yes. But do we give the money because their son or daughter was a suicide bomber? No. Is that money an incentive for them to commit acts of terrorism? No." Al-Jubeir condemned terrorism, but refused to condemn the terrorist organization Hamas.
