Saudi Arabia, amid heavy fighting with Shi'ite rebels, has begun erecting another security fence along its border with Yemen. Saudi military sources said the Defense Ministry has overseen a fast-track project to construct a barbed wire fence along most of the 1,600-kilometer border with Yemen. The sources said the project reflected an urgent requirement for a physical barrier to block the flow of thousands of Shi'ite rebels and their supporters from Yemen to the Saudi kingdom.

Bump
Sounds like the Shi’ite is about to hit the fan.
the Saudis should have no problem with just mowing them down , and they should . Fill the Empty Quarter with Shitite bones.
Maybe the rest will get the message .
What?
A border security fence?
Who’d have ever thought of such a thing?
To keep illegals out?
Huh.
Nahhhh,
Hell, we’ve only 20 milllion who’ve snuck in ILLEGALLy.
So mexico and saudi arabia are smarter than we? Well at least our congress.
Yet the Saudi’s bitch about Israel’s fence.

Ah, the Saudis. They reap what they sow.
But...but, the Yemeni Shiite rebels are only going to Saudi Arabia to do jobs the Saudis won’t do. The Saudis need to bring people out of the shadows, keep families together, and meet the demands for workers that aren’t being met. Saudi Arabia is a rich country and it can afford to provide these undocumented immigrants with a more prosperous life. The fact that these folks might want to, uh, overthrow the Saudi government is not germane to the argument over what to do about them.
It is actually the Egyptians, Lebanese and Indians who come to do the work the Saudi’s Won’t do.
You missed my irony.
Oh I got your irony, except in their case there is a measure of truth to it. Except of course, the Shia tend not to be big on manual labor.
