Muslims vs. Jews (part two and a half)
"Later in an interview with Al-Arabiya satellite channel, Prince Sultan again denied an Israeli claim that the [Saudi] Kingdom had foiled an attempt by a Saudi pilot to carry out a terrorist attack on Israel.
“The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia totally rejects this report. This never happened and will not happen,” the minister said. He expressed surprise at some Arab channels and newspapers giving credence to what Israel says.
So, am I the only one who recognizes that this implies that Saudi Arabia would endorse/support, at least tacitly, terrorist plots against Israel?
This is real, people. His comment indicated that they would NOT stop a terrorist plot against Israel. This doesn't bode well for everyone else... This isn't as "harmless" as one might think. In this dynamic security environment, if you wanted to plot terrorist attacks against interests worldwide, then you could do so with impunity in Saudi Arabia as long as they believed your plot was targeting Israel.
Quips, anecdotes, and perspectives for those in search of another view.
"Don't believe in anything simply because you heard it.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
Do not believe in anything because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
But after observation and analysis, you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept and live up to it." The Buddha Sakyamuni
