| Saudi Arabia: Armed gunmen raid aluminum plant looking for Americans |
| 2004-07-10 |
| Three armed gunmen approached the al-Zamil aluminum factory in the city of al-Dammam, threatened the guard with a firearm and inquired as to whether there were U.S. citizens employed by the company or residing in company housing. (al-Zamil is an Arab-owned company.) The incident occurred at approximately 1340 local time on 7 July 2004 but was reported one day later. The gunmen drove away after the guard told them that there were no U.S. citizens in the company compound. No further details are known at present. |

| #3 This is the Saudi equivalent of the knock-knock joke. |

| #2 Start placing ARMED guards who will shoot these clowns at any location where Americans work or might work, and this problem can be solved quickly. The trick is getting the (probably) Saudi guards to shoot the killers. |
