Our “allies” the Saudis are preparing to send a large amount of cash and “kind” (whatever that means—I doubt it has anything to do with kindness) to the Palestinian Authority, to support the stupidfada: Back Palestinians with deeds not words, says Naif.
“A group of individuals tried to gather in front of the American Consulate to express their anger over what is happening to their Palestinian brethren,” the minister said, and warned that such gatherings are not permissible in the Kingdom.
Some 30,000 Americans live in the area, most of whom work for Saudi Aramco. Yesterday the US Consulate put out a warning advising all Americans to remain in their homes and to exercise “great care” if they go out.
Prince Naif called on the zealots who took part in the demonstration to take effective steps in support of the Palestinians. “These enthusiasts should help Palestinians through donations to the Saudi Committee for Supporting Al-Quds Intifada,” the prince said. “We are now making preparations to send a large quantity of donations, both in cash and kind, to the Palestinian people languishing under the barbaric Israeli aggression,” he added.
