You're right, I did not see that. Well, I searched in Corbis under every way I could think of -- collar, scarf, preacher, actor, opera, etc. I will try some more.

In the upper right corner, under the Saudi guy, it looks like a row of TV screens, or maybe photos. Possibly when they show the video of the "martyr"'s farewell message?

Good work! I see that both the Franks and Rumsfield images in the AQ picture come from the same photo.

Memo to Rummy: ease up on the shoulder pads! Looks like you're playing for the Steelers.

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE Office of the Spokesman - PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT: "MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA" (PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENT SNIPPET: "Credible information has indicated terrorist groups may be planning attacks against U.S. interests in the Middle East. Terrorist actions may include suicide operations, bombings, hijackings or kidnappings. These may also involve commercial aircraft and maritime interests. While conventional weapons such as explosive devices are a more immediate threat in many areas, use of non-conventional weapons, including chemical or biological agents must be considered a possible threat. Terrorists do not distinguish between official and civilian targets. Increased security at official U.S. facilities has led terrorists and their sympathizers to seek softer targets such as public transportation, residential areas, clubs, restaurants, places of worship, hotels, schools, outdoor recreation events, resorts and beaches.")

A strike on Mecca could be seen as a strike on the royal family. A new Interior Ministry statement late Wednesday said two al-Qaida suspects were killed and five arrested, including four Saudis and one Nigerian, in Monday's Mecca shootout. The ministry had said earlier six were arrested. The official Saudi Press Agency on Wednesday quoted an Interior Ministry official as saying authorities confiscated the following items from the militants: a box for storing explosives in a car trunk; dozens of hydrogen tanks; four automatic rifles; eight pistols; 1,246 bullets of various types; 21 grenades; three rocket-propelled grenade launchers; military fatigues and women's clothes, apparently intended for disguise.")

I think it's a map of Saudi Arabia. There's discussion over on another thread about it. Can't find the link now. But check out a map of SA.

And the scales are over the Persian Gulf.

Remember in one of ObL's messages, wasn't there mention of fire in the Gulf?

Maybe we're closing the embassy because the good guys are planning something for the Saudis.

They hate us for soiling Saudi soil, and the Saudi leaders for allowing us to stay.

Yes, thanks, Abdullah and what is the other prince's name in the picture? I believe the other picture is of the Saudi Prince that gave a big check to N.Y. mayor Rudi and then he insulted our county and Rudi returned the check to him.
