Iraq: Saudi Imam [terrorist] killed in clash with US soldiers
AKI ^ | 2005 Jun 20

Riyadh, 20 June (AKI) - A young Saudi imam, Muhammad Bijad al-Harbi, is reported to have died in Iraq following a gunfight with American forces in the country. The Saudi newspaper Al-Watan said on Monday that the imam, who died a few days ago, was only 27 and was married, but had no children. Many young Saudis are thought to have travelled to Iraq to join the Jihad, and the newspaper begins the article on al-Harbi's death saying "the series of killings of Saudis in Iraq continues."

Al-Harbi was the imam of a mosque in the Al-Rawda area of the city of Al-Bureida, where he was born and where his family still lives. It is thought he left for Iraq before obtaining his degree in Sharia law, at the Imam Muhammad Al-Saud University of Qasim. The news of his death is said to have shocked his family so much that his mother has been admitted to hospital for several days. his funeral has already been held.

Al-Harbi died along with another young Saudi, Fahad Abdullah al-Shaaban, 25, who also lived at Al-Bureida. The newspaper says the two young men travelled to Iraq overland via Jordan and the Syrian border. From Syria they were helped into Iraq by an Islamic group operating in the area, who showed them a secret route onto Iraqi territory. They had only spent 20 days in Iraq, during which they had fought several gun battles against the American forces.

I guess, the Saudi's refusal to allow us to use their territory to fight this war in Iraq is clear now.

One young Saudi recently said in an interview that he and his friend went to Iraq but returned to Saudi Arabia on learning that their only contribution would be as a suicide car bomber.

I guess he was not all that into it...

Well yes, but note the tone of the article. Think as more of the Saudi terrorists are killed in Iraq, the Saudi's will decide its time to PUNISH us infidels by cutting off oil supplies? Just wondering.

BS! The scumbag had a degree in Sharia law and planned to push that crap in Iraq. I hope his swine of a mother hangs herself.

The Saudis are estimated to have sent 2500 jihadis to Iraq to fight us. This is the equivalent of an army regiment.
So, IMHO, they have declared war on us, and are fighting us as hard as they can.
Time to retaliate.
Or to let the Iraqis, who are also the victims here,
retaliate.

Hell, the saudis can do whatever they want and you'll have people like coop here not wanting to nuke them. This includes them nuking us.

We won't do a damn thing to them, ever.

I guess you didn't get the memo. There is no way GOD would turn over his purest angels to the bloody, murderous hands of Islamofascist Terrorists.

BUT if you believe that Islam is the Religion of Satan, yeah it could happen. Satan kidnapping virgin angels and handing them over to his followers to be RAPED.

Didn't most of the "Nuke Mecca" crowd get booted back in 2001?

I don't think so. The extremest, like bin Ladin, want to tear down the house of Saud. The more of them killed in Iraq they less the Saudis have to worry about. Probably why that Prince urged them to fight the infidel.
