Our Friends the Saudis

More of the ugly misogyny that makes the religious apartheid Kingdom of Saud so special: Saudis order 40 lashes for elderly woman for mingling.

(CNN) — A Saudi Arabian court has sentenced a 75-year-old Syrian woman to 40 lashes, four months imprisonment and deportation from the kingdom for having two unrelated men in her house, according to local media reports.

According to the Saudi daily newspaper Al-Watan, troubles for the woman, Khamisa Mohammed Sawadi, began last year when a member of the religious police entered her house in the city of Al-Chamli and found her with two unrelated men, “Fahd” and “Hadian.”

Fahd told the policeman he had the right to be there, because Sawadi had breast-fed him as a baby and was therefore considered to be a son to her in Islam, according to Al-Watan. Fahd, 24, added that his friend Hadian was escorting him as he delivered bread for the elderly woman. The policeman then arrested both men.

The State Department is refraining from any comment on an escalating political crisis in Pakistan.

Thousands, perhaps hundreds of thousands, of anti-government protestors are expected to take part in the "Long March" across the country, due to begin Thursday in Karachi and Quetta. The march, coming at a time when President Zardari's popularity is at an all time low, aims to reach Islamabad on Monday.

This is why I don't particularly mind the Global Warming hoax, even though it was originally intended as a scheme to destroy capitalism. Because a side of effect of all this money being poured into "solving global warming" is the acceleration of our development of "alternative" energy sources. I.e., it will help to wean us off oil. It's for all the wrong reasons, of course, but hey, I'll deprive the Saudis of cash any way I can.

Egyptian cleric blasts Starbucks for using Queen Esther in logo

As Jews around the world are celebrating Purim, one Egyptian cleric has used the holiday to launch an attack against Starbucks, claiming that the woman in the logo of the international chain is Queen Esther, and her presence warrants a boycott of the company throughout the Arab world.

More

"The girl in the Starbucks logo is Queen Esther. Do you know who Queen Esther was and what the crown on her head means? This is the crown of the Persian kingdom. This queen is the queen of the Jews. She is mentioned in the Torah, in the Book of Esther. The girl you see is Esther, the queen of the Jews in Persia," the cleric said.

Quote from that article:

The lawyer said a 75-year-old woman is usually not considered seductive yet she is a woman and unrelated men should not remain alone with her. He said court rulings in such cases are based on Shariah, which did not differentiate between old and young. “Old age is not a sufficient ground for acquittal” he said.

Sawadi had told the court that she considered Al-Anzi as her son, because she breast-fed him when he was a baby. But the court denied her claim, saying she had no evidence. In Islamic tradition, breast-feeding establishes a degree of maternal relation.

Actually, the Muslims are. I've gotten into it with some at a local supermarket where they were propositioning women. Their shopping cart had Booze, beer , and wine in it. I threatened to report them to the base for their vulgarity-and their country for being apostates...I didn't get killed, and they left with no further importuning of female customers. I called the base to complain, and told I'd be called, but was never given even a courtesy call back....apparently oil diplomacy takes precedence.....:>((

Muslim anti-war protesters abuse British soldiers as 'baby killers' during homecoming parade [in the UK]

Excerpt:

Twice in two years they have fought in Iraq, with two of their comrades paying the ultimate price when they died in a roadside bomb attack in Basra and 10 more killed in Afghanistan. But a homecoming parade in honour of 200 soldiers back from the battlefields was marred yesterday(tues) by Muslim anti-war protesters.

They hurled abuse as members of the 2nd Battalion The Royal Anglian Regiment marched proudly through the centre of Luton. Waving placards with slogans saying: 'Anglian soldiers: Butchers of Basra,' and 'Anglian soldiers: cowards, killers, extremists,' and 'baby killers,' they were hemmed in by police as the parade passed.

There was an interesting and accurate comment at the bottom of this report:

Whilst we all support freedom of speech, if you ammended the plaqards to complain about Muslims the police would be arresting you for inciting hatred yet these people can get away with anyhting here.

They are directing their psychosis against Anglicans.

Same here. As the commentator noted, could you imagine if there were a protest in the UK with protestors holding signs against "Muslims?" While in this case they are allowed to protest against "Anglican" and are treated as special class citizens in a country that would otherwise prosecute them for hate speech.

That's how things work in the topsy turvy world of Labour and the UK these days and greater Europe.

Here's another example at a Saudi book fair, note the horror of a man thanking a Saudi woman for signing a book.

link.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry reading this:

"The man asked Khal — a vocal critic of the commission — why prominent Saudi poets and literary people attacked conservative society by doing un-Islamic things: “Why can’t they be Muslim and literary at same time?” he asked the audience.

Many of those attending the event who had come to discuss literature and poetry confirmed the incident. Many expressed disapproval and narrated unpleasant incidents that took place at the fair.

“What happened will destroy the image of tolerance we have tried to maintain,” said Saudi writer and journalist Ruqaiyah Yaqub. “The fair respects all viewpoints and Islamic schools. However, some extremists took advantage of that and they took revenge as well.”

Yaqub, who wears a full veil, said that conservatives at the fair (it was impossible to tell if they were actual commission members or just conservatives) attacked her verbally for her tight-fitting abaya, demanding that she “thickly cover everything and wear decent clothes,” she added.

“It’s so ridiculous,” she scoffed. “I’m covering everything with my plain black Abaya and — I don’t know what they consider ‘decent’ — but I believe their main issue is the presence of women at the fair.”

That would be wonderful. For the first time in possibly 1000s of years the primitive nation of Afghanistan has a foothold on the modern age. They are now able to move forward beyond the stone age.

I'm sure they would prefer to keep the Afghanistan in the stone age. They also have plans and would like to see the UK return to a stone age society ruled by Sharia law.

We seem to have a neon sign visible only to cats that flashes on an off in front of our house - CATS EAT FREE - or something.

They keep showing up. We have 4 that are "ours" (including my psycho long-haired calico who is beautiful, but crazy) and 3 more that come to eat.

That would be wonderful. For the first time in possibly 1000s of years the primitive nation of Afghanistan has a foothold on the modern age. They are now able to move forward beyond the stone age.

I'm sure they would prefer to keep the Afghanistan in the stone age. They also have plans and would like to see the UK return to a stone age society ruled by Sharia law.

Stone age has an environmentally friendly carbon footprint. Everyone should try it!

That is exactly why it is there. The Declaration of Independence tells us very clearly why it is there:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

"MANHATTAN, Kan. — Thousands of students from Saudi Arabia are enrolling on college campuses across the United States this semester under a new educational exchange program brokered by President Bush and Saudi King Abdullah.

The program will quintuple the number of Saudi students and scholars here by the academic year's end. And big, public universities from Florida to the Kansas plains are in a fierce competition for their tuition dollars.

The kingdom's royal family — which is paying full scholarships for most of the 15,000 students — says the program will help stem unrest at home by schooling the country's brightest in the American tradition. The U.S. State Department sees the exchange as a way to build ties with future Saudi leaders and young scholars at a time of unsteady relations with the Muslim world.

40 lashes to a 75 year old woman will likely kill her.

IIRC- there was another lashing story (for a rape victim) where the King came under international pressure and the girl was spared. I would hope this story would generate the same outrage and perhaps international pressure will help spare this woman.

Of course- I don't expect the White House to join. I'm sure between waffles and being tired there's just no time to take notice of this horror.

re: #70 zombie

This is why I don't particularly mind the Global Warming hoax, even though it was originally intended as a scheme to destroy capitalism. Because a side of effect of all this money being poured into "solving global warming" is the acceleration of our development of "alternative" energy sources. I.e., it will help to wean us off oil. It's for all the wrong reasons, of course, but hey, I'll deprive the Saudis of cash any way I can.

Now, if it weren't for that part about cutting off the oil about 10 years before any feasible alternatives are ready, that might be a good thing.

Why do they have to cut us off from oil, anyway? If these new alternatives are so superior, they'll have us switching to oil due to the savings anyway.

Remember, it wasn't any government act that weaned us off whale oil. It was J.P. Morgan's commercial use of petroleum as a feasible commercial alternative that did it.

(I love mentioning to lefties that J.P. Morgan saved more whales than Greenpeace ever will.)

From the archives:

Saudi King Pardons Gang Rape Victim

Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah has pardoned a female rape victim who had been sentenced to 200 lashes for being alone with a man at the time of the attack who was not related to her, a Saudi newspaper reported Monday.

The case had sparked international outcry. In a rare criticism of its Mideast ally, the White House had expressed its “astonishment” over the woman’s sentence. Canada called it barbaric.

I can only hope this elderly woman is also spared. 40 lashes will surely kill her.

Obama supposedly values "human" rights yet blatantly tramples individual rights... Which is, of course, totally absurd. Fact is, he recognizes no rights except for one---his alleged "right" to control and manipulate everything and everyone.

Human rights is a leftist fallacy. Anytime you group "rights" you deny the individual liberty.

"Human rights" are antithetical to liberty.

Indeed, they are. They are a non-concept, really. Humans are individuals, so individual rights should suffice. However, if you look at the laundry list of "human rights" offered by the UN, you will see that those are ones that entitle some to the fruits of labor of others, without payment, or, to be more blunt, grant the right to some to enslave others. "Liberals" (Ha!) love to manipulate the language.

re: #455 ArmyWife

Hey, I got an answer from my friend in Ginter Park, I couldn't find your e-mail address on your blog so I just posted it as a comment under your latest post. Here it is, looks like things have changed a bit since my day there:

Hi Dave,
This question can only be answered by Richmond City Schools which your friend can Google for the e-mail address and phone number. He should go to the different level administration offices... elementary, middle or high to find his answers. The reason for this is because at each level there are different rules. High school students for example can go to different "model" schools which have different themes - fine arts, science, governor school, etc. Of course, the student will have to apply to those schools. My last experience with the elementary level was that they had dropped the option for a child to attend any elementary school the family wanted on the first come first serve basis. Parents used to line up at Fox as early as 4 am to enroll. This now does not happen. As for middle school I never heard one way or the other. But, with the disorder and chaos the defines Richmond schools, the current policy could have changed again. To my knowledge at this time a student must go in the area he lives. It is subjective to say whether or not there are good options out there for high performing kids....everything is a trade off... Best of luck to your friend.

From a Cat's Diary

Day 983 of my captivity. My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.

They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I are fed hash or some sort of dry nuggets. Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.

Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am. Bastards.

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs..

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released - and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded.

The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicating with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe. For now................

re: #493 UberInfidel67

I posted this here months ago, but it is a classic, and truer words never written to our Beloved furry companions:

Dear Dog and Cat,

When I say to move, it means go someplace else, not switch positions with each other so there are still two of you in the way.
The dishes with the paw prints are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. (Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate & food does not stake a claim to become your food & dish, nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the slightest.) The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object. Tripping me doesn't help because I fall faster than you can run. I cannot buy anything larger than a king size bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think I will continue to sleep on the couch to ensure your comfort. Look at videos of dogs and cats sleeping. Dogs and cats CAN actually curl up in a ball to sleep. It is not necessary to sleep stretched out to the fullest extent possible, perpendicular to each other across my bed. (I also know that sticking tails straight out and tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space used is nothing but sarcasm.) My compact discs are not miniature Frisbees. For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the doors shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge and try to pull the door open. I must exit through the same door I entered. (In addition, I have been using the bathroom for years...canine or feline attendance is not mandatory.) The proper order of events is kiss me, then go smell the other dogs or cats' butt. I cannot stress this enough. It would be such a simple change for you.

To pacify you I have posted the following message on our front door:
Rules for Non-pet owners who visit and to complain about our pets:
1. They live here; you don't.
2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture.
3. I like my pet better than I like most people.
4. To you, it's an animal. To me, he and/or she is my friend and room mate who is short, hairy, walks on all fours and is speech challenged.
5. Dogs and cats are better than kids. They eat less, don't ask for money, are easier to train, usually come when called, never drive your car, leave the gas tank empty, or drive your car into something. They don't hang out with drug using friends, don't drink or smoke, pets don't worry about buying the latest fashions,don't wear your clothes, don't need a gazillion dollars for college,and you can have them spayed and/or neutered. But if they get pregnant, you can sell the results.

It's a SURTASS ship. It's most definitely patrolling the Pacific trying to keep tabs on the growing Chinese navy.

Omg - the article you linked to is unbelievable - these people men are from the dark ages.

Saudi law forbids women from driving on the grounds that it would allow unrelated members of the opposite sex to mix. The government does permit women to hire male chauffeurs, however, if they gain written permission from a close male relative. But women who cannot afford the $300-$400 per month for a driver must get rides from male relatives.

Al-Riyadh, the newspaper that broke al-Habis’s story, called her “brave,” and her father lauded her efforts. But some conservatives contend that if women were to get behind the wheel, they would be exposed to “immorality,” due to the possibility of eye contact or conversations with men.

On the Ward Churchill thread, the theme to Billy Jack, the song One Tin Soldier came up. A very, very moonbatty song, that really called for a revision.

This is what I came up with:

Listen, Children, to a story
That was written recently
Of a nation and its people
Who lived rich and free

Then the nation they elected
A president commie
And he took away their freedoms
They guarded religiously

Go ahead and be a commie
Go ahead enslave your friends
You can do it in the name of progress
And justify it in the end
There won’t be any freedoms ringing
Come election day
On the voting ballot
Obama is all they’d see

Then the people rose in anger
With their teabags they did go
And they showed the commie bastard
And they made him go
Then they raised a standard
Held high above their heads
Showed it to those they rescued
Freedom to Man was all it said

Go ahead and be a commie
Go ahead enslave your friends
You can do it in the name of progress
And justify it in the end
But there will be freedom ringing
Come election day
For the people spoke
And they made us free.

re: #611 Alouette

A man is taking a walk in London. Suddenly he sees a little girl being attacked by a pit bull dog . He runs over and starts fighting with the dog. He succeeds in killing the dog and saving the girl's life. A policeman who was watching the scene walks over and says: "You are a hero, tomorrow you can read it in all the newspapers: "Brave Londoner saves the life of little girl" The man says: - "But I am not a Londoner!" "Oh ,then it will say in newspapers in the morning: 'Brave Englishman saves life of little girl'" – the policeman answers. "But I am not British!" – says the man. "Oh, what are you then? " The man says: - "I am a Israeli!" The next day the newspapers says: "Zionist extremist kills innocent family pet."

Thanks for posting that, I misread the first one...:(

What kind of Man could stand there and see an old Woman whipped to death?

A man indoctrinated from birth to think the whipping a good thing. There's also the fact that anyone intervening would likely be killed. The threat of beheading tend to dampen most people's sense of justice. It shouldn't, but it does.

Do they know the region, or have any idea about what agency? If not, I'd make a list of numbers for Catholic organizations, and start calling and e-mailing, seeing what they can suggest. Catholic Charities, the Sisters of Mercy, various dioceses. The Sisters might be a good choice to start with. They're a nursing order, and have very good records.

I helped a good friend do that a while back. Managed to get into the "sealed" medical records and get a name. (we knew the delivering MD). Then traced the mother back through various addresses until we found someone who actually knew her. The rest was easy. All parties were so very happy to get back together it was really worth the effort. It didn't "take" on a long term basis because of religious differences of opinion, but they know how to find each other and that is important.

Camille Paglia nails it!

First it was that chaotic pig rut of a stimulus package, which let House Democrats throw a thousand crazy kitchen sinks into what should have been a focused blueprint for economic recovery. Then it was the stunt of unnerving Wall Street by sending out a shrill duo of slick geeks (Timothy Geithner and Peter Orszag) as the administration's weirdly adolescent spokesmen on economics. Who could ever have confidence in that sorry pair?


...
chop

Case in point: The orchestrated attack on radio host Rush Limbaugh, which has made the White House look like an oafish bunch of drunken frat boys.


...
chop

If Rush's presence looms too large for the political landscape, it's because of the total vacuity of the Republican leadership, which seems to be in a dithering funk. Rush isn't responsible for the feebleness of Republican voices or the thinness of Republican ideas. Only ignoramuses believe that Rush speaks for the Republican Party. On the contrary, Rush as a proponent of heartland conservatism has waged open warfare with the Washington party establishment for years.

Well, not quite. Trying out for Sapper (not likely, at 5'0" and 106 lbs) and Air Assault. I may, if I am a pain in the ass enough, get the Airborne slot, too... I am like a gnat... Tiny but annoying, and nearly impossible to swat and kill.

Ahh, I once weighed 106 lbs. Too bad it was during the ugliest fashion decade of the century.

Outdated joke, but still on-theme:

Pope John Paul II, Menachem Mendel Schneerson (the Lubavitcher Rebbe), George H.W. Bush and Dan Quayle are on a plane together, returning from a conference, when the pilot rushes into the cabin.

"Gentlemen," he says, "the engine is on fire, and the plane is going to crash. Unfortunately, we only have four parachutes on the plane, and I'm about to use one of them. You're going to have to work out among yourselves who will try to land the plane." He jumps out of the plane.

Dan Quayle leaps to his feet and says "George Bush is the greatest president the United States has ever had, he is a war hero, and he will undoubtedly choose to go down with the plane. Therefore it's necessary that I survive to lead our country!" He runs to the parachute locker and jumps from the plane.

George Bush leaps to his feet and says "Forgive me, your Holiness, Rabbi Schneerson. If I die, that guy is going to be president of the United States, and you can see, I can't let that happen." He runs to get a parachute and jumps out of the plane.

The Pope and the Rebbe are left on the doomed plane, and only one parachute is left. After a short silence the Pope says, in Polish, "Rabbi Schneerson, you have no heir. We are both important leaders in our faiths, but if I die, the College of Cardinals will choose a successor, and the Church will continue. If you die, your people will have no leader. You take the last parachute."

"That won't be necessary," the Rebbe says.

"What do you mean? There were four parachutes. The pilot took one, Quayle took one, and Bush took one. There's only one left."

The Rebbe sighs deeply. "Two," he says. "Mr. Quayle jumped with my tallis bag."

It's been a long time but I'm pretty certain you're correct. IIRC, as enlisted you had to be heading to an airborne assignment. Officers could volunteer. I remember some limited exceptions for cadets, either ROTC or USMA but those rules are probably outdated.

And did y'all see Iowahawk's take on Obama's gift-giving advice(fresh from his triumphal etiquette tour de force with Gordon Brown)?

Sometimes, though, the occasion calls for a gift with the warm "personal touch" that reflects the personality and tastes of the recipient. For example, my wife Michelle is very involved with fashion, fitness, and beauty, so for our 10th anniversary I gave her a Norelco heavy duty personal ear and nose hair groomer. Sure, it was expensive, but that glare of delight in her eyes was more than enough payback for the $89.95 price plus $20 for shipping and monogramming.

They can't. The men have all the weapons and they're prepared to kill to maintain their positions. Those who fight back, die. And it's just that simple.

the courage to die for their liberty...it is universal

You would think that they would look at this case and realize that overall, "This is never going to get better. This is inhumane."

I'm gathering 9 fatalities. The perp shot himself.

I read somewhere they generally think shooting people will be the answer to whatever it is they need. It never is, but they find this out after shooting people. That's when they shoot themselves.

If you are lucky and you have good NCOs then it is a great job, planning means that you are already way ahead of the fools now running , well now running your life actually, but I'll try not to get you in trouble

If you are in the area please go to the NY Historical society and see the exhibit on Grant and Lee, has their West Point notes and artwork

I wish I were in the NY area, to go to the exhibit. Would be interesting and educational for me, since I did not grow up in this country. I may make the trip this summer, as it looks like I will be free for a considerable amount of time.

Yes. It couldn't make any logical sense for their motivation. I do think that they might also want to harm other people before committing suicide.

My cats were bugging me (I think they were bored), so I gave them catnip. Heh heh heh. Siamese is sleeping in his heated bed. Domestic shorthair is contemplating the funny noise the washing machine is making.

Loaded cats. Always fun! Mine usually vigorously attack the MotorMousie™ (an RC-mouse from hell, that makes infernal noise on the hardwood floor) then smack the daylights out of each other (all in fun, no pain!), then pass out in odd places (such as my closet, on top of my mink coat they work hard at pulling off the hanger).

With you lizards discussing your MOS wants, tabs might be nice to be seen in, but your character is much more important. Even listening to your thinking is good to see. The problems is, with real men, and women in the unit, women will be a distracting.
If we are taking cover, and a man and a woman gets hit, I am going to naturally go out and get the woman back first.
I have seen the same thing in the Fire Department.
But the training would be good, with todays problems, you never know what could happen.

Was it a purebred? Sounds beautiful. Our very first shepherd's bloodlines were from Germany - a beautiful black sable; our current one is a big American Rin Tin Tin look-a-like. Love these dogs. So intelligent, watchful and loyal.

re: #748 nyc redneck

every relationship in islam, btw men and women (whether husband and wife or
son and female relatives) is meaningless.
subordinate to islam. words in a book
written by a 7th century warring misogynist pedophile.
his spew undermines real love and caring btw family members.
the instant disconnect and brutal retribution if strict rules aren't followed
is stunning .
obviously people don't really matter in islam.
especially women.

they can't move on with the rest of the world, then they complain, why they are misunderstood, but they are not, they live in the past

The Ambassador's Departure

His excellency, Chas Freeman, was silent, he is silent no more. Chas is silent about a lot of things, but not when it comes to blaming Israel. I am sure he is a bright guy, he taught himself Chinese and was at Nixon's side in China in 1972. OK.

But somewhere along the line Freeman forgot a few things.

Little things like who he works for and how unseemly it is to take money from the people to whom he supposed to represent THIS country's interests to. How dare this man blame the Jews when HIS Rolodex overflowed with Bin Ladens and Bin Talals and other very special people who should be in Gitmo not rocking the discos and casinos of Monaco on their 300 foot yahcts. He was silent when the Saudis were spewing radical Islam planet wide and never said boo as they made the Protocols of the Elders of Zion available in every Mosque worldwide. When the Saudis almost got overrun by Saddam in 1990, Chas was there at the front lines of despotism, his heroic efforts for his Saudi masters earned him the Medal of Abdul Aziz, a prestigious medal indeed from the only country in the world where women can't drive and if they try run from a burning building without veils, the religious police send them back in to burn to death. It should be noted that King Abdullah is trying to reign in the religious police and TALKING about reform, Chas Freeman never suggested taking these steps.

But I draw the line at this man's full throated attacks on Israel. Freeman, I resent your comments in the extreme. Next time you visit Foggy Bottom, go look up a predecessor of yours, Breckenridge Long. Breck was a special guy. An anti-semite, like you, he made sure the Jews of Europe had no where to run during WWII. So they died. Almost all of them. You see Chas, one third of the Jewish people perished because a butthole of a diplomat lacked the slightest semblance of a soul. The survivors of my people are congregated in Israel. There was nothing to go back to in Europe, if they even could go back, so the Jews went to Israel. Fellow Arabist Secretary of State, George Marshall was all set to not recognize the creation of Israel; Israel exists because President Truman recognized Israel at once to prevent Marshall from saying no. So you see Chas, my fellow American Jews, and Israel's many, many friends in this country, believe we have a moral obligation to protect Israel from those who seek to destroy her, including nogoodniks that work in the halls of power. We think that maybe the Jewish people should not be singled out for bigotry and genocidal hatred. Just because you think its OK to take big chunks of Saudi money and not disclose it, doesn't mean we do. The Jewish Lobby did not do you in, the asshole you see in the mirror every morning did. I have read some of the comments of Israel's enemies about your pullout and it sounds like their heads are just exploding over this. GOOD. Let them keel over while masturbating to the latest Norman Finkelstein screed or YouTube of George Galloway kissing the "holy" soil of Gaza. They are not rational about Jews and Israel anyway, so anything that sets the snakes in your collective heads a dither is all to the good.

Today is the Jewish Holiday of Purim, we celebrate the downfall of another evil adviser to the east, this time to the Persian nation; he tried to kill us. Perhaps you deep down would never have hurt Israel but your ugly exit remarks justify any Jew who thinks our people have a right to live in this world to remain vigilant and watch for potential enemies. Happy Purim Chas! Perhaps Prince Bin Talal will send you another seven or eight figure check (its our money anyway) as a way of thanking you to remember to blame the Jews for your own misfortune. You can stick that check with your failed nomination where the sun doesn't shine.

Thank you so much Charles for shedding the light on such stories. They hardly get enough media attention, no one wants to upset the Saudis.
This is not surprising from the country that wanted to punish a gang rape victim last year, and only international pressure made got her an amnesty from the king. An Amnesty to not get lashed because she got raped, no words can explain that in any language.

814 wltzacrsstxs  Wed, Mar 11, 2009 4:07:30pm

I thought Abdullah would get a handle on the religious police by now. I think Fahd got blackmailed by them, but Abdullah was "clean" enough and tough enough to shut them up.

I guess Abdullah doesn't care much about the west's opinion? He's like 85 years old, so maybe whoever succeeds him will get Saudi close to the 18th century.

Of course, the 18th century might not be such a bad place, given the slouch towards socialism we seem to be experiencing. I found a college-era copy of Common Sense in the attic last night and gave it a read. Good stuff. Still looking for my copy of Atlas Shrugged.

Don't hold back. Let them hear how this strikes American citizens! Thank you, and Thank You Little Green Footballs for letting me know about this story.
