| Al Qaeda Says Kidnapped American in Saudi Arabia | |
| 2004-06-12 | |
| RIYADH (Reuters) - Al Qaeda militants said on Sunday they had kidnapped a U.S. engineer in Saudi Arabia to "avenge U.S. mistreatment of prisoners" in Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq and Guantanamo Bay in Cuba, according to an Islamist Web site. In a statement posted on Sawt al Jihad Islamist Web site, they identified the American as Paul Marshal Johnson from New Jersey, born on May 8, 1955, and a specialist in Apache helicopters. They said he was kidnapped on Saturday. Looks like the Jihadis are zeroing in on a tactic to bring down the house of Saud.

| #3 Maybe what were are viewing is an inter-power play within the House of Saud with one faction utilizing the 'services' of totally brainwashed Wahhabi al-Qa'ida trained terrorists. The goal for the enemy remains the same; total control over that Treasure of Allah (the vast oil wealth). Resulting from ongoing kidnappings & terror attacks, westerners will eventually, as in Iran during 1977-8, be scared out of the country. The westerners in reality run the Saudi oil industry from the very top to the everyday workings of exportation. Maybe the Saudis could operate a few gas stations after all normal people depart Arabia for safer employment. |

| #2 These animals clearly believe in an eye for an eye, with their eye swollen from overexposure to the Islamo-Goebbels and Euro-idiotarian media. Whatever happens to Mr. Johnson should happen to a jihadi tool or carpetbagger in the West, it's all they understand. The "cycle of violence" appeasers assume a level of equivalency that has yet to be tried. Maybe real equivalency will break the cycle. |
