Abdullah saw news footage from the West Bank of an Israeli soldier holding a Palestinian woman to the ground by putting his boot on her head. "Abdullah saw that and he went berserk," one senior Saudi recounted. "A woman being beaten by a man -- he just felt this is the ultimate insult.">>>>> This is surreal...To blow children and women to pieces..is Holly Jihad...What is more pathetic is that Saudis upset that their Absurd society came under microscope... <<Bandar said later. He couldn't imagine a way to "do more damage or worse damage to Islam or to Saudi Arabia.">>> washingtonpost.com PS This is just another attempt by the Saudis to leak info in the attempt to manipulate US public opinion, that they Saudis are sort of civilized nation, not Midevil Fundamentalist brutal Regime, that they are...Look, who worries about women, LOL!

From PBS (Zionist anti-Arab organisation pbs.org also from same site pbs.org The books were published in 2000. FRONTLINE cannot verify how many Saudi schools have used these textbooks, or how these passages were taught or interpreted by teachers in Saudi Arabia. However, these textbooks are part of the official curriculum for Saudi students and are a fundamental part of their education. Approximately 35% of school studies is devoted to compulsory Saudi religious education This first extract, "The Victory of Muslims Over Jews,"

They say nothing to do with Bin Laden and alike.. pbs.org Teachings of the Hadith 1/ It's fate decided by Allah that the Muslims and Jews will fight till the end of the world. 2/ The Hadith predicts for the Muslims God's victory over the Jews. 3/ The victory for the Muslims because they are right, and who ever is right is always victorious, even though most people are against him. 4/ God grants victory to the Muslims if they have a true will, if they unite, hold on to God's sharia, if they go by God's ruling, if they are patient. 5/ The material strength won't be enough to warrant victory, it is necessary to invoke God seek his support. 6/ Who ever is with God, God is with him; no matter what hardships and ordeals one would undergo what counts is the final result. 7/ Jews and Christians are the enemies of believers they will never approve of the Muslims, beware of them.

Your "Saudi Time Bomb?" report aired on November 15, did a geat job highlighting the traditional duplicity of the Saudi government. Apparently you hit the nail right on the head because, just eleven days after the showing of your report, the Kingdom found it necessary to "sponsor" a thirteen page "spcial advertising section" in the November 26 edition of Newsweek, ostensibly to "selebrate the 20th anniversary of the reign of King Fahd". This propaganda effort, glorifying the rules of Saudi Arabia, fell flat inasmuch as US readers remembe only too well that fourteen of the nineteen Septemer 11 mass muarderers were Saudis and that Hitler Bin Laden, their "sponsor" is also Saudi. Is it a coincidence or did you schedule your report to be aired, almost to the day, on another Saudi anniversary: The 22nd anniversary of the explosion of the "First Saudi Time Bomb"? The exact date was November 20, 1979; The time was 5:00PM; The place was the courtyard of the Great Mosque at Mecca, Saudi Arabia, where over 50,000 Muslim pilgrims were devotedly swirling around the sacred Kaaba. The "time bomb" was set off by a Sauid pilgrim who did the unthinkable: In the very heart of Islam, at the Holy Kaaba, he brandished a submachine gun from under his djellaba and fired into the air. This was the signal for some 1,500 Saudi "pilgrims" to don red headbands; To display their hidden firearms; To occupy "strategic positions" and sacrilegiously take control of the Great Mosque. In the ensuing pandemonium several thousand pilgrims were either trampled to death or shot by the Saudi security forces. But, as carefully planned, the "desecrators" were able to lead about 6,000 pilgrims to the "safety" of the uncharted underground cellars and passageways of the fifteen hundred year old Great Mosque, where they were held as hostages.To quell the revolution, which is was this mass action was, the Saudi government did not hesitate to call on a government of "infidels" for assistance: The French government was contacted, agreed to help and immediately dispatched on captain and two no-commissioned officers of their elite GIGN (Groupe d'Intervention de la Gendarmerie Nationale, a military/state police/delata force type organization. Although "infidels" are strictly prohibited from entering the Mecca, the Saudi officials gave the French officers secret access to the city to evaluate the situation at the Great Mosque. After having oversome the stench of thousand decomposing cadavers, the French "gendarmes" eventuallly proposed to swamp the entire underground structure of the Great Mosquewith "tranquilizing gas". The Saudi government and Imam of the Great Mosque approved. Two tons of gas were flown in from France and on December 4, after a two week standoff and an expedited training by the French agents, the Saudi security forces attacked the rebels. The gas quickly neutralized the insurgents and their hostages. Unfortunately the Saudi military took neither prisoners nor the time to sort out the rebels from the hostages.The resulting blood bath was horrendous BUT since that tragedy apparently no one has daredto challenge the authority of the King. AND through shrewd "education as well as targeted religious teachings", the rage of the likes of Hitler Bin Laden has been deflected from the House of Saud onto the White House! pbs.org
