The Saudi minister of the interior Prince Nayef Bin Abdul Aziz, yesterday admitted for the first time the possibility that Saudi fighters sneaked to Iraq. But he denied that any of those fighters went there " through a direct way."
In a press conference in Riyadh following a session for the Saudi Shoura council during which "the violence phenomenon" was discussed, Nayef said that Riyadh was not notified officially that Saudis are in Iraq. But he added " certainly there are Saudis.. But the number and how this had happened is not available to us now." He also denied that any of the Saudi fighters who sneaked to Iraq, went there " in the direct way," expressing his hope to making contacts with the Iraqi side to this effect when the Iraqi security department is built.
Nayef disclosed that hundreds of detainees are held by the Saudi authorities "and are interrogated." he explained " those who took part in the destructive operations will be brought before the judiciary."
Meantime, the Saudi official news agency quoted Nayef as saying that he expects more gunmen to surrender in response to the amnesty decision announced by the Kingdom but he stressed that the amnesty grace period will not be extended.
Uh..What was your first clue, Sherlock?

"...he explained " those who took part in the destructive operations will be brought before the judiciary."
Surely he means "destructive operations" that occured in Saudi, not elsewhere.
Indirect sneaking. Is that legal?
I guess they were too busy looking the other way to stop these guys...
Have these murdering schweinhunds been executed yet?

Let's see...I'll take "Murdering Bastards" for 200, Alex. "Country that 15 of the 19 WTC hijackers originated." Uh, "What is Saudi Arabia?" [Sound of dinging and studio audience applause...]
Probably after having been informed that half of the terrorists that have been stacked like cordwood in the last few months by the US Marines are Saudis.

You can tell immediatly when a Saudi Arabian is lying to you....
They open their mouth and speak....or pick up a pen and write..
The House of Saud and the Wahabbi Sect of Islam IS THE ENEMY...

" But he denied that any of those fighters went there through a direct way."
Translation: The Saudi government didn't authorize it but the police and border security turned a blind eye towards it.
