#1 Talking of Riyad, The "Religious Policeman" has popped up again at muttawa.blogspot.com . However he's working in the UK which seems sensible given what is going on.

#3 I wonder how many people have that name? It's sort of like the way everyone over there started naming their babies OBL. Maybe one day, we'll catch him! lol.

#4 Maybe other people have the same name, but this is the only guy in town with an infidel's head in his refrigerator. All the boyz down at the mosque were sooooooo envious!

#5 I think I've figured this out! See, if 72 virgins await each and every single jihadi "shaheed," then there must be a catch other than merely becoming a martyr.

Perhaps the proviso is this: You must die TWICE, not just once. So these Jihadis gunned down in Soddy by the Soddies are dead again.

Hell, it's a theory. Where's my morning gin?

#6 Thanks, Padraigh, for letting us know that the Alhamedi is back.
The gunfight lasted four hours starting 6:00 am .... How convenient for them. They must have waited until after the first daily prayer, Fajr. I wonder if they schedule all gunfights around the daily prayer times.

#8 Say what? On re-reading this article I noticed this gem: Abdullah, who is expected to visit Medina later Thursday, assumed the throne of the House of Saud when his father, King Fahd, died earlier this month. Another expert on the Magic Kingdom writes for us, the unwashed.
