Medeshi Nov 18, 2008Barbaric Saudis and the Somali Pirates
Saudi Arabia compares pirates to terrorists. What about the actions of the barbaric Saudis executing innocent Somalis? Saudis have got used to getting it their way always specially among the expatriates who live in their country. Saudi citizens have the right to imprison or beat their foreign workers while the government turns a blind eye to these kinds of abuses.
I was amazed to read in the papers what prince Saud Al Faisal , the foreign minister for ever of the Wahabic peninsula wrote :

I was amazed to read in the papers what prince Saud Al Faisal , the foreign minister for ever of the Wahabic peninsula wrote :
Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Saud al-Faisal called the hijacking "an outrageous act" and said "piracy, like terrorism, is a disease which is against everybody, and everybody must address it together."Speaking during a visit to Athens on Tuesday, he said Saudi Arabia would join an international initiative against piracy in the Red Sea area, where more than 80 pirate attacks have taken place this year.He did not elaborate on what steps the kingdom would take to better protect its vital oil tankers. Saudi Arabia's French-equipped navy has 18,000-20,000 personnel, but has never taken part in any high-seas fighting.
I think the disease is the Saudi system that swaps foreign prisoners for criminal Saudis during the Friday executions, or executing poor Somalis who have no government to defend them for petty crimes like theft or burglary. The disease is in the Saudi system that teaches religious extremism to selected and uneducated immigrants from Somalia and gives them money to go back and create misguided sharia law.
Perhaps the hijacked ship will open the eyes of naive Saudi ministers like Saud Al Faisal to current events of the world and will make them understand that there still exists a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye. These pirates will not release the tanker without the payment of enough ransom money to minimally compensate for the criminally executed innocent Somali men and women in the barbaric Wahabist den.
