A fluent Arabic speaker with a degree in Arab and Islamic Studies... I guess they don't teach everything in school.

What a shame. I must mourn for awhile.

So he begged for help from "fellow Muslims" - did they offer him help? How long did he lie in the street before being transported to a hospital?
To: Eurotwit
will the BBC characterize this as an "attack"?

Riddled with bullets, BBC correspondent Frank Gardner pleaded for his life in the Saudi capital shouting to bystanders to help a fellow Muslim, a police officer told AFP yesterday. Maybe simply being muslim isn't enough for these terrorists. Maybe they didn't like the way he looked.

You'd think the article might point out whether or not the guy actually
was a Muslim. I mean, does one typically proclaim one's faith in order to obtain rescue? Or was the poor bastard so cynical that he thought attaching himself to Islam would help his chances?
Either way, what does it tell us that a man riddled with bullets would need to claim his "Islamicity" in order to be helped by random bystanders? If he proclaimed himself a Christian, can we assume they would have shot him some more?

Terrorists don't care one way or the other about muslims. Its just a standard excuse like blaming America. The only "good muslims" in the eyes of the terrorists are those who are actively killing anyone who isn't a terrorist.

Why should muslims care if they kill other muslims anyway? More muslims have been killed by fellow muslims than any other nationality or faith.

"I'm a Muslim, help me, I'm a Muslim, help me," the British father of two daughters cried in Arabic, the officer said. So the b@st@rd expects help because he is a Muslim? He belongs with the rest of the porkophobes who would not offer help to an Infidel, dead.

he was carrying a small copy of the Koran, the Muslim holy book, a device used by Westerner reporters to try to reassure Islamist militants. A better device would be a koran hollowed out to hold a pistol.
Kevlar book-cover wouldn't be a bad idea, either.

The very fact that he uttered those words show that he knows that Muslims want to kill non-Muslims.
Sickening.

Some muslim this guy is, aren't they supposed to "love death as much as the infidel loves life"? He should've been jumping for joy.
I wonder if the BBC will protest the coincidence that a camera crew just happened to be there to catch it. That would be some lovely irony.
