Powell: 10 Americans Killed in Saudi Bombings
That's ten Americans and a crapload of others that these terrorists don't give a shit about because their addled little pea-brained minds are too busy orgasming over the anti-Americanism that shows up in the local papers (and occasionally the papers in Europe) to think that their actions have consequences for anything outside their orgy of hatred. May their God see His name shamed as the God of Abraham, revealed to Jew, Christian and Muslim, watches this foul cause waste away as the backward worshipping of idols that Islamicism, Osamaism and Wahhabism are.
Powell went ahead with his plans to visit Riyadh, arriving safely on Tuesday. He was greeted on his arrival by Prince Saud, the Saudi foreign minister, who expressed his sorrow and vowed to cooperate with the United States in fighting teerrorism.Wonder if Saud stops to think about the extent to which his government promoted the attitudes that lead to these things, wonder if he realized that he was being bitten squarely on the ass for everything that kookier Saudis, including a member of the Saudi royal family, have believed from the BS used to justify the backwardness of the Saudi régime.
"These things happen everywhere," Saud said. He added that the bombers "know only to hate and kill," and said his government would increase its counter-terror efforts.
State Department officials said the American school in Riyadh likely will be closed Tuesday, and advised Americans to remain at home until further notice. Earlier this month, it had advised Americans earlier against traveling to Saudi Arabia because of increased terrorism concerns.Great! Damn straight, stay away from Saudi Arabia. But is advising Americans to remain at home such great advice? Seems to me that's where the problem started. They ought to start camping outside Saudi palaces so the House of Saud will have reason to get off its ass and start addressing why killing us is such an evil idea instead of running anti-Jew, anti-Israel crap even post-9/11 as though you can promote wholesale hatred and keep the fires burning just hot enough for your own causes without danger of them flaring up.
