United Nations Human Rights Council member state Saudi Arabia today beheaded 37 Saudi citizens in a mass execution across the country for alleged terrorism-related crimes, publicly pinning one headless body to a pole as a warning to others.
It marked the largest number of executions in a single day in Saudi Arabia since Jan. 2, 2016, when the kingdom executed 47 individuals, including a prominent Shiite cleric whose death sparked protests in Iran and the ransacking of the Saudi Embassy there.
"The death penalty was implemented on a number of criminals for adopting extremist terrorist ideologies and forming terrorist cells to corrupt and disrupt security as well as spreading chaos and provoking sectarian strife," Saudi Press Agency (SPA) tweeted.
Saudi Arabia’s Interior Ministry stressed the executions were carried out in full accordance with Islamic law.

Elsewhere I read they executed terrorists.
37 x 72 = 2664 virgins! It is going to cause shortage of virgins in Allah’s heaven.
for adopting extremist terrorist ideologies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
ideologies like Islam?
Recycle. It’s good for the environment.
There are millions more terrorists in the big sand box.
Shiites instead of Sunni.
I wish Israel would follow the Saudi example. The needle or the scaffold would do just fine.
Did they get to vote first?
If they were guilty of genuine terrorism then I don’t have the slightest problem here.
Heads on a stick! Heads on a stick!
Hmm, that gives me an idea!😎
One their virgins can be found on this thread https://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/3744124/posts
Death cult.
Or maybe it actually is the white raisins?
I’m not going to criticize them. We need a bit of that here.
I have been to Chop Chop square in Riyadh, but not to witness an execution. I do recall an interview in a local Saudi newspaper with the person who performed the executions and other penalties. He took great pride in his work and deemed it an honor. He said he had no problem with the beheadings, but chopping off hands were disturbing for him. He was a huge man from Sudan originally.
Remember that Bin Laden was a Saudi citizen too.
It’s good that the Saudis are going after and eradicate the terrorists living there, before they go and commit more terror attacks there and elsewhere.
Were some of the beheaded guilty of passing out Bibles ??? Is the worst form of terrorism according to the house of saud
I wonder what constitutes *terrorism* in SA?
