"Saudi monarch decries extremism" by Andrew Hay, Reuters | July 17, 2008
Isn't that a bit like a dog calling for vegitarianism?
MADRID - Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah opened an unprecedented meeting of Muslims, Christians, Jews and other believers yesterday with a call to shun the extremism that has tarnished the reputation of religious faith.
The three-day conference in Madrid aims to showcase a more tolerant side of the kingdom's strict Wahhabi Islam under fire since 15 Saudis were among the 19 Arabs who carried out the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks.
AmeriKa's Zionist-controlled MSM never misses a chance to work 9/11 in, does it?
And WTF?!
Why did we attack IRAQ while Bush's terrorist-funding Saudi friends got off scot fr.... never mind.
It was the first time Saudi Arabia, where non-Muslims cannot practice their faith openly, invited Jews to such a meeting. The king also invited Buddhists, Hindus and Sikhs.
"Differences do not lead to conflict and confrontation, we have to state that tragedies that have occurred in history were not caused by religion but extremism adopted by some of the followers of each one of the religions," said Abdullah, flanked by Spain's King Juan Carlos.
Jewish and Christian leaders said Abdullah had taken a momentous step to fight the forces of fanaticism. The king launched the dialogue plan after meeting Pope Benedict XVI last November.
"If it moves ahead and there are meetings including official Israeli representatives in Saudi Arabia and it expands this, it will be the wonderful beginning of a very historic process," said Rabbi David Rosen of the American Jewish Committee.
"If it doesn't do that then it's another photo opportunity," said the British-born rabbi, who is based in Jerusalem but was listed at the conference as American.
What, ANOTHER DUAL NATIONAL undermining America for the holy shit stink state of Iz-ray-HELL?
There was caution at how effective the event might be in achieving that goal, given that no Israeli leaders were on the list of 288 religious, political and cultural figures attending the event, including Tony Blair and Jesse Jackson."
Jesse Jackson is there?
This is the best America can do for religious leaders?
Seems more and more like the Anti Christ's society every day!
"Fox News says Jackson used racial epithet
CHICAGO - Fox News says the Rev. Jesse Jackson used a racial epithet during a break in a TV interview where he criticized presidential candidate Barack Obama.
The longtime civil rights leader already came under fire this month for saying he wanted to castrate Obama in what he thought was a private conversation during a taping of a "Fox & Friends" news show.
Now a Fox spokesman says Jackson used "the N-word" to refer to black people during that taping as he said Obama was talking down to them. Those comments were not aired.
Jackson, who is traveling in Spain, apologized in a statement yesterday for "hurtful words" but didn't offer specifics. The comment was first reported by blog TVNewser. Fox declined to release the transcript (AP)."

Saudi Slavemasters
How come Bush doesn't scold the Saudis over this?
We all know why, don't we?
O-I-L!
"Saudi Arabia urged to protect workers; Rights report cites abuses that domestics suffer" by Peter Gelling, International Herald Tribune | July 9, 2008
JAKARTA - A new report on the abuse of domestic workers in Saudi Arabia, released yesterday in Jakarta by Human Rights Watch, is hardly unique: the study found that thousands of domestic workers in Saudi Arabia each year face similar abuses, including lashings, unpaid wages, forced labor, and slavery-like conditions.
--MORE--"
Of course, this also pushes the "Muslims treat women badly" agenda, too.
Not that I don't believe the report; I am just waiting for the expose on Israel and its treatment of Palestinians.
Oh, and one other thing that limits my response because of the country I live in (U.S.):
WEES TORTURE!!!!
:-(

The Saudi Saviors
Even though the dropping dollar, NOT SUPPLY, is the problem.
Nice fooleys the elites got going, huh?
"Energy, food costs drive up inflation; But Saudi Arabia is expected to boost oil production in July" by Globe Wire Services | June 14, 2008
WASHINGTON - Soaring energy costs pushed inflation up in May at the fastest pace in six months. Food costs kept rising, too, and all signs are pointing to more bad news on gasoline, oil, and food in the months ahead....
But relief may be on the way for some energy costs. Saudi Arabia, the world's biggest oil exporter, is planning to increase its output next month by about a half-million barrels a day, according to analysts and oil traders who have been briefed by Saudi officials....
On Wall Street, stocks ended a turbulent week with a big gain.... The Dow Jones industrial average rose 165.77 points to close at 12,307.35.
Private economists cautioned that there would probably be more bad news on inflation in the months ahead given that this year's oil shock has gone on much longer than expected.
"Businesses that had been patiently waiting for oil prices to fall have run out of patience. We expect more of them to start throwing in the towel and raising prices," said Kenneth Beauchemin, an economist at Global Insight, noting the announcement by Dow Chemical Co. late last month that it was raising prices by up to 20 percent.
But according to a report in The New York Times, if Saudi Arabia increased its oil production, the kingdom would be producing 10 million barrels a day, which, if sustained, would be the kingdom's highest ever.
Oh, I must have missed that report.
Small confession: I rarely go to the New York Times' website anymore, and if I do, I rarely look at the newspaper edition. I used to buy a copy every day (until January 1 2008), and when I stopped that, at least I was visiting the web site everyday. Now I no longer really care what is coming from the New York Times.
And I was a DECADES-LONG reader and purchaser!
NEVER AGAIN!
The move was seen as a sign that the Saudis are becoming increasingly nervous about both the political and economic effect of high oil prices. In recent weeks, soaring fuel costs have incited demonstrations and protests from Italy to Indonesia....
Yeah, where have THOSE PROTEST BEEN in my Zionist AmeriKan War Daily agenda-pushing piece of filth?
Get a sentence on a Saturday, huh?
Wouldn't want to give Americans ideas unless it was for global-warming, gays, immigrants, or some other agenda-pushing item, right, shit press?
While they are reaping record profits, the Saudis are concerned that today's record prices might eventually dampen economic growth and lead to lower oil demand, as is already happening in the United States and other developed countries.
Then WHY hasn't the PRICE COME DOWN, huh?
Law of supply and demand?
Pfffffftttt!!!!
The current prices are also making alternative fuels more viable, threatening the long-term prospects of the oil-based economy.
President Bush visited Saudi Arabia twice this year, pleading with King Abdullah to step up production. While the Saudis resisted the calls then, arguing that the markets were well supplied, they seem to have since concluded that they needed to disrupt the momentum that has been building in commodity markets.
Last week, King Abdullah also took the unprecedented step of arranging on short notice a major gathering of oil producers and consumers to address the causes of the price rally. The meeting will be on June 22 in Jeddah."
Yup, Bush's Saudi buddies coming to our rescue -- and theirs!!

Bush's Arab Love Fest
I noticed that the word Iran never came up in the AmeriKan War Daily reports.
I'm tired of superficial bullshit passing as news and disguising these monsters' agenda,m readers.
You go to the blogs and it's like a different world!
"Saudis Rebuff Bush, Politely, on Pumping More Oil"
".... Mr. Hadley said he had a sense that officials in the kingdom were concerned about sentiment in the United States.
“They are sensitive to the economic health of their customers,” Mr. Hadley said. “And they are also sensitive to, and aware of, I’m sure, about the unhappiness that is generated in the United States among the American people and in the Congress about these high oil prices.”
The White House billed the visit on Friday as a way to celebrate 75 years of United States-Saudi relations, but that relationship, while strong under past presidents, especially Mr. Bush’s father, has grown strained under this president.
You are kidding, right, New York Times?
Mr. Hadley told reporters recently that “the Iraq war was a stress” on the relationship. Jon Alterman, a Mideast expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said Saudi confidence in the United States has been “extremely shaken,” over the war as well as what Saudis perceive as Mr. Bush’s lackluster effort on behalf of the rights of Palestinians.
“They’ll be polite,” Mr. Alterman said, “but they’re not really going to put themselves out to help this president.”
No, they will only work with USrael to further the neo-con agenda in the Middle East -- until we turn on them.
I just recently learned -- not to my surprise -- that the Saudis are with Israel and the U.S. in the region and are working at cross purposes to Arab causes.
When the House of Saud is overthrown, it is going to come crashing down. These guys will be hanging from lampposts!!!
And look at Bush trying to bullshit 'em!
"Bush assures Arabs of commitment to peace deal "
"by Michael Abramowitz, Washington Post | May 18, 2008
SHARM EL-SHEIK, Egypt - President Bush yesterday sought to assure Arabs that he is committed to securing an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal by the end of the year, as he arrived at this Red Sea resort for a quick round of consultations with key allies.
"It breaks my heart to see the vast potential of the Palestinian people really wasted," Bush told reporters after meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas. "They're good, smart, capable people that when given a chance will build a thriving homeland. It'll be an opportunity to end the suffering that takes place in the Palestinian territory."
Bush's comments appeared to be an effort to address criticism in the Arab world of his strong words of support for Israel on its 60th anniversary, remarks that newspapers and officials in the region said ignored Palestinian sensitivities. As if to punctuate the point, Bush clasped Abbas's hands at the end of a brief photo opportunity and the two strolled down a stone pathway hand in hand on their way to dinner.
Awwwwwww! Isn't that special?
Abbas voiced confidence in Bush. "We know very well that you, personally, as well as your administration are committed to reach peace before the end of 2008," the Palestinian president said.
Now the Palestinian people know Abass is a cock-sucking whore!! Puh-leeze!!
Also see: The Bush Vision
But it was unclear whether the Palestinians and Israelis are making much progress on the final borders of a Palestinian state and the other issues that divide them.
What is unclear about treading water?
Bush flew here after a breakfast with Saudi King Abdullah in a round of meetings with foreign leaders gathered for a conference of the World Economic Forum. He also conferred with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Afghan President Hamid Karzai, and was planning to meet with top officials from Iraq, Pakistan, and Jordan.
Bush expressed satisfaction with the modest increase in oil production announced by Saudi Arabia last week and put the onus on the United States to bring down the price of gas by taking such steps as expanding oil exploration and conservation efforts.
So Bush gets a blow job from Abass, performs fellatio on the Saudis, and SHITS in the American peoples' faces!!!!!!!
"We've got to do more at home," he said after meetings with Abdullah on Friday and yesterday morning. "One of the interesting things about American politics is, those who are screaming the loudest for increased production from Saudi Arabia are the very same people who are fighting the fiercest against domestic exploration, against the development of nuclear power and against expanding refining capacity."
While Democrats in Congress are demanding that the Saudis boost production more aggressively, those comments suggested that Bush believes he has done all he can to encourage the Saudis to act. It was the second time Bush has discussed soaring prices with Abdullah in recent months, and the second time the Saudis have told him that they do not intend to ramp up production substantially.
In briefings Friday, the Saudis told Bush that they are already spending billions to expand capacity to meet increased demand from their customers. After the meeting, however, they announced that they had boosted production by 300,000 barrels a day, a move that would bring overall production to roughly 9.4 million barrels a day. The kingdom's production capacity is 11.3 million barrels, and oil analysts described the Saudi gesture as modest at best.
"It's something, but it doesn't solve our problem," Bush said. "Our problem in America gets solved when we aggressively go for domestic exploration. Our problem in America gets solved if we expand our refining capacity, promote nuclear energy and continue our strategy for the advancement of alternative energies, as well as conservation."
Bush blamed Congress for blocking some of these ideas but said he had told the king and Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi "very plainly" that they should be "concerned about the effects of high oil prices on some of the biggest customers in the world. And not only that, of course, high energy prices are going to cause countries like mine to accelerate our move toward alternative energy."
So FUCK the ENVIRONMENT?
I mean, if the fuel prices stayed low, then screw 'global-warming," huh?
No either, THIS GUY is a LYING FRAUD or "global-warming" is a LYING FRAUD or BOTH!!!!!

Saudis and Syrians Going At It
Update: "Saudi Arabian ambassador in Beirut, Abdul Aziz Khoja, left Lebanon for Cyprus yesterday. Mr. Khoja was not given any special treatment for his trip considering the very ugly role Saudi Arabia has been playing in Lebanon lately be it in terms of trying to ignite sectarian strife by arming militias or by plotting with the US, France and Israel in order to assassinate the leader of the Resistance, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah....
-- MORE--"
And it is NOWHERE in the Zionist-controlled AmeriKan MSM!!!
"Fiery exchange of words and accusations in Arab League between Saudi Arabia and Syria!!"
"I translated this exchange that occurred between the Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Evil and the Syrian Ambassador to the Arab League because I thought that it might not appear in Western press. In fact, most of the complicit Arab media also didn’t refer to the fiery exchange that took place yesterday.
The source is the Lebanese newspaper Al Akhbar:
http://www.al-akhbar.com/ar/node/73224
Translation:
Saud el Faisal, the Saudi Foreign Minister offered a long interjection mainly about “the crazy war Hezbollah was conducting in Beirut”. He also went on to personally attacked the General Secretary of Hezbollah describing him as “Sharon, because he and the Israelis agreed to invade Beirut”.
El Faisal said that “the constitutional Lebanese government was facing complete war and that it was not possible for the Arab world to stand there powerless. El Faisal ads that is Iran is handling the administration of the battle and Hezbollah is trying to impose on Lebanon “wilayat el Faqih” (guardianship of Islamic jurisprudence) and it is upon us to do all that is in our power to stop this war and save Lebanon even if this requires the creation of an Arab military force that should spread quickly in Lebanon to restore security an protect the existing legitimate system. We have to issue now a statement clearly condemning Hezbollah and Iran through this meeting and we must send a warning to the militias to stop the battle and withdraw. We also have to stand by the Siniora government, thank it for its endurance and provide it with support”
The new self acknowledged Zionists of the Middle East...
When the Saudi Minister finished speaking, the Syrian Ambassador spoke:
“Syrian Foreign Minister Walid el Moallem is not present for personal reasons. Damascus sees that what is happening in Lebanon is an internal matter in which Syria does not wish to interfere. The Saudi Foreign Minister offered however a biased and partisan series of cover-ups that must be responded to in order for his position not be later adopted for truths”. The Syrian Ambassador then directed himself to the Saudi Ambassador: “you are now revealing your real and partisan position which favors one party of the Lebanese over the other. You say that the Lebanese government is a constitutional government when we all know that it is a de-facto government which does not represent all the Lebanese, but a portion of them… and the fact that it spent 11 hours taking its last 2 decisions meant that it knew the risks involved and the kind of debacle that could arise as a result... and it is the debacle we are watching unfold today. “ The Syrian Ambassador went on to tell Saud el Faisal: “Since you want to send Arab forces to Lebanon, would you like them to go to Lebanon to kill the majority of Lebanese in defense of the Israeli spy and agent Samir Geagea who has today become your ally?”
El Faisal interrupts the Syrian Ambassador: “He is not our ally”
The Syrian Ambassador answers: “He is your ally and he gets from you support and money too. Do you want to impose on us your interpretations and tell us that Iran is the enemy and not Israel which kills children everyday non-top? You want to send forces now to Lebanon, but it didn’t occur to you to move a finger when Israel was bombing Lebanon everyday without a break? Why didn’t you think of sending forces to face the Israeli invasion then? You also speak about Hezbollah in a hostile way. You and all of us know that this party has changed greatly from the day it was established. It sacrificed enormously for its country Lebanon as well as for the ‘Umma’ and such sacrifice is only offered by those who are looking for the benefit of their country.
As for Iran which stood by us and our concerns, you now want to convince us that Iran in an enemy? A while ago when we spoke in a closed session of Arab-Iranian relations, everyone was eager and no one voiced any objection. This means that Saudi Arabia wants to impose its obsessions on us and this is a matter which we shall not accept. “
Al Faisal responded by saying that Iran supported rebellion. Al Faisal added speaking directly to the Syrian Ambassador: “ you are addressing me and speaking about our position as though we were allied with Israel. If you repeat such talk, I will take a different position with you.”
The Syrian Ambassador answers sharply: “don’t threaten me. If you try to change your words, you will hear from me what you never heard from anyone before. I am telling you and everyone in this meeting that the Arab League has to be impartial and fair towards all parties in Lebanon and there is the Arab Initiative which we issued here and which the Secretary General knows is a plan that has already been welcomed by all parties in Lebanon on the basis of an entire package and not just a series of separate steps.”
Internal disagreements had started in the beginning of the session as a result of Egypt and Saudi Arabia’s insistence that the final statement include a “condemnation” of the Lebanese opposition forces that took control of Beirut. Arab sources said that the Secretary General of the Arab League “was not in favor of putting together an extended Arab committee that would take-over the responsibility of mediating between the different factions and that he preferred a small committee limited to Qatar and Djibouti in order to be more effective.”
Sources said also that while Arab countries were busy competing for participation in the committee, General Secretary Moussa’s reservations were ignored in spite of his indication that a wider committee would not achieve its goals."
The more I think of it, the more I realize the Saudi-USraeli alliance.
After all, didn't Saudi serve up the 9/11 patsies for the CIA/Mossad inside job?
Yeah, nothing happened to Saudi either, just like Israel -- the beneficiaries of 9/11.
On the day of the 9-11 attacks, former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was asked what the attacks would mean for US-Israeli relations. His quick reply was:
"It's very good…….Well, it's not good, but it will generate immediate sympathy (for Israel)."
"Netanyahu says 9/11 terror attacks good for Israel"
"We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attack on the Twin Towers and Pentagon, and the American struggle in Iraq," Ma'ariv quoted the former prime minister as saying. He reportedly added that these events "swung American public opinion in our favor."
And CUI BONO, readers?!
