“The report also criticizes the school’s administrative structure, saying it is little more than an offshoot of the Saudi Embassy, with the Saudi ambassador to the United States serving as chairman of the school’s board of directors.

This is not unusual. I have served as a US diplomat in Saudi Arabia and sat on the school board of the Saudi-American school. I have done so at other schools around the world as well. The USG provides funding to many international schools and our diplomats sit on their school boards.

thanks for the info, that is good to know.

However, it appears to be a conflict of interests if by interfering with the school is viewed as an interference with government issues. The two should be separate issues.

At least that is how I interpreted the statement. Let me know if I understood this incorrectly. thx

How many of the US schools abroard whose boards you sat on preached that Jews and other infidels should be killed?
