“Zionism is Behind Terrorist Actions in the Kingdom”

• Views: 1,039

Two days ago we reported the bizarre antisemitic statements by Saudi Crown Prince Abdullah ibn Abd Al-’Aziz, blaming Zionists and Israel for the recent terror attacks against Muslims in Saudi Arabia. Today MEMRI has a more complete transcription of the Crown Prince’s ravings: Saudi Crown Prince on Yunbu Attack: ‘Zionism is Behind Terrorist Actions in the Kingdom… I am 95% Sure of That’.

According to the SPA, among those present at the gathering were Prince Faisal bin Turki Al-Saud, Prince Mamdouh bin Abd Al-’Aziz, director of the Strategic Studies Center, Prince Dr. Bandar bin Salman bin Muhammad Al- Saud, advisor to the court of the crown prince, Prince Abd Al-’Aziz bin Fahd bin Abd Al-’Aziz, minister of state, cabinet member, and chief of the court of the cabinet’s presidency, and senior protocol officers.

The May 2, 2004 edition of the London Arabic-language daily Al-Hayat quoted Crown Prince Abdallah as saying, “Be assured that the Zionist are behind everything. This is certain. I don’t say this with 100% [confidence], but with 95%.”

The following is text of Crown Prince Abdallah speaking at the May 2 gathering, which aired on Saudi 1 Television, as well as reports from today’s Saudi daily Okaz which also blamed “Zionists” for the attacks:

“This is seduction. You all know who is behind it all. Zionism is behind it. It has become clear now. It has become clear to us. I don’t say, I mean… It is not 100%, but 95% [certain] that the Zionist hands are behind what happened.

”What can we possibly do, they [the perpetrators] are our sons. They have been seduced, and they fell for it.

“But we say that Allah’s will is everything. Allah’s will is everything. But what we and you must do is to be patient, reflect, and act, because now even silence… Even one who keeps silent will be accused of being one of them. Even one who keeps silent…

”In the past, we have said that perhaps foreigners seduced them, and so on. But we are speaking of your sons who killed their brothers, killed those who protect you. The General Security apparatus protects you, your families, your children, and your sons. They got their boldness from Satan. They are Satan’s helpers. They are the hangers-on of Satan and of imperialism…

“But I tell you that you can be 100% sure that, Allah willing, this country will be victorious, whoever the faction that turns against it may be. But we are convinced that Zionism is behind everything. This has been established, I am not saying by 100%, but by 95%.”

Abdullah is supposed to visit the White House soon. Will this insanity be a topic of conversation?
