They probably killed the two who would finger the Saud family, and let the snitches off the hook.

Not usually a good move to threaten your major source of funding.

I am sure the reason the AQ is attacking the Saudi Royal Family is because of Palestine.

Same reason the Palestinians blew up each other in Lebanon.

Same reason the Islamics beheaded those Christian doctors in the Philipines.

Or the Islamics slaughtered the Christians in Sudan.

It is always the United States and the Jews fault, just listen to the wolves, they will tell you.

But as someone else said, why fool with one of their major sources of funding?

So to speak...

Two points:

1) The source is DEBKA.
2) Thank you for including the source in the title.

Wahabi murderers killing Wahabi murderers?

Other than the fact that all human life is precious to God, I fail to see a downside here.

That's what I thought.

Look for slap downs between al-Qaeda and the Saud's on al-Jazeera. This will get interesting.

I fear that the only reason that the message you have written has been repeated so often is because it was given to the arabs by the self hating in Isreal and the US. If not given then it gained value by those who are willing to accept appeasment over strength.

In addition to two terrorists, the raid also killed five space aliens, three Loch Ness Monsters, and Bat Boy.

"Saudi Security Kills Leader of Riydah Attacks"

Suprise! He's dead! No ugly recriminations when FBI interrogation reveals he was FUNDED BY THE HOUSE OF SAUD.

Just a reprise of the Khobar Towers investigation. Move along. Nothing to see here, HE'S FLIPPING DEAD!

(I'm Betting on a single bullet hole in the back of the head.)
