| Kingdom Vows to Root Out Terrorism | ||||
| 2003-12-20 | ||||
| Again? Negotiations broke down with the holy men, I take it... Saudi Arabia yesterday reaffirmed its determination to root out terrorism and protect expatriate workers in the Kingdom. âWe must eradicate terrorism absolutely,â said Crown Prince Abdullah, deputy premier and commander of the National Guard. âThe foreigners have come to serve this country. They deserve the same protection as citizens because they came here peacefully to serve the country,â the Saudi Press Agency quoted the crown prince as saying. âThe terrorists are ignorant...and we will pursue this minority, no matter how long it takes. We will pursue them whoever they are and whatever happens,â the crown prince said.

| #10 I think he meant tourism, no? The only terrorism they want to eradicate is the kind that doesn't target them. |

| #7 . There are only so many ways you can point the finger at arrogance, lies, dissumulation, Master Race philosophy, and the rest of the Soddy ooze The Insight of Fred. Excellent, a keeper. I've copied it. (As one old editor told me... you got eyes.... plagerize.) :) |

| #6 G(nR) - It may be even simpler to point out the contradiction(s) in that one article. Let's 'deconstruct': They deserve the same protection as citizens because they came here peacefully to serve the country,â False - 'deserve' isn't the same thing as being granted the right to. âThe terrorists are ignorant...' Truth - the only one I see in this article, which is followed by... and we will pursue this minority, no matter how long it takes. We will pursue them whoever they are and whatever happens,â the crown prince said. Which is Then we get: The strategy lies in the cohesion of the people and their leadership.â Completely meaningless sentence / more BullShiite, etc., ad nauseum. In other words, think wash, rinse, repeat... |

| #5 Glenn Occasionally I'll pass on making a comment merely because I don't want to repeat myself too many times. There are only so many ways you can point the finger at arrogance, lies, dissumulation, Master Race philosophy, and the rest of the Soddy ooze. And occasionally I don't say anything because a statement is so sickenly stoopid it's beneath commentary. The Soddies want to bring about "unity in the Arab and Islamic nation." It's another name for a caliphate, ruled by a "pure" Arab prince like... ummm... Prince Abdullah. Arabs include their Christian brethren, who aren't allowed to practice in Soddy Arabia, and who're oppressed in every other Muslim country in a manner CAIR would be howling about if it was happening to Muslims in the U.S.A. (or anywhere else, for that matter). Under the caliphate they'll be expected to pay their poll tax and to stay in their place, which is as tributaries to the Master Religion, and especially to the Arab Master Race. He's telling the truth that Islam, specifically Salafism, is their foundation and their model. That's why we have the brutality, the corpses, the eye-rolling and the blood-curdling threats. They've taken their religion over the course of years and converted it to an ideology, similar in its ends and in its tactics to the horrors of the last century. Replace "commissar" or "Gauleiter" with "imam" and you can keep right on marching toward Final Victory⢠without missing a beat. It's just that the Nazis had spiffier uniforms and the Commies could make their own tanks. I keep looking for signs that the princes realize the abyss they're swarming toward. Occasionally I find them, but every time I do it's with a magnifying glass, in a good light. And a day or two later, a week at most, there's something else that contradicts it, that says they're staying the course. It's a course that will lead them to ultimate victory, with the Flag of Islam flying over the White House - or to their complete destruction, the same kind of "do or die" the Juche birds are so fond of. I'm betting on their complete destruction. |

| #4 Ah, okay. This is a reference, I think, to the Lebanese Christians who died in the last Riyadh bombing. He wants in-kingdom violence to end, so he had to include his "lost" Arab brothers. He wants violence against Muslims and Arabs everywhere to end. He knows they will impose Islam whereever the Muslims and/or Arabs hold sway. He doesn't give a rat-fuck about violence against anyone else or anywhere else. The only new thing here I can see is the inclusion of those poor misguided Lebs... who had the audacity to get themselves killed on his patch. Glory, right. The Clown Prince of Sunni Islam. |

| #3 Sorry, .com, I'm trying to get them to be consistent with each other. "Arabs include even our Christian brethren," is a clinker. Can you get them to scan together? |

| #2 G(nR) - I don't get it - what are you asking / griping about, exactly? You want an explanation of those 5 sentences? |

| #1 Fred, a gripe: "We want to bring about unity ..." You read a lot if this stuff, while you were glossing at least you could have clarified that. Sounds like doubletalk. Or is it just me? |
