Saudi Arabia: Militants urged to renounce violence and 'return to normal life
2009-02-05
(AKI) Saudi Arabia has issued a list of 83 militant fugitives based overseas and called on them to turn themselves in to authorities and "return to a normal life."
Looks like it's time to stock up on the fingerpaint...
According to a report in the local newspaper, 'al-Watan', 81 citizens and two Yemenis may have fled the country in order to re-enter secretly and carry out attacks.
Why not skip the sneaking out part and just attack? Just a thought...
Saudi television read the names and showed photos of some of the wanted men and said they had "adopted the straying ideology," a reference to al-Qaeda. Authorities have asked them to give themselves up to police and "return to a normal life".
Repent, boys! Again!
But they fear they may be following Muhammad al-Awfi and Said al-Shahri, who after returning from the US military prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba, fled to Yemen to form a new terror cell.

Saudi Arabia also put hundreds of militants through a rehabilitation program which included education by clerics to "correct" their thinking and financial help to start a new life.
I say again. Repent, boys! Hot chow, smokes, and crayons await you!
