You know I almost swallowed my tongue when this abomiantion of a_resident stuck his face on MY TV and announced that HE had killed bin laden. The saudis are undermining that as we speak, but they can’t come right out with it and say that in deference to his father, a VERY wealthy, powerful man, they allowed, aided, and even covered up bin laden’s burial IN saudi arabia. He got a royal burial. Was ferried in on the royal’s own yacht. This must be giving them fits because they would like nothing better than to embarrass obama right now, but they can’t outright. HOWEVER, IF they can antagonize zawahiri enough, HE might come out with it. Oh, LORD, I pray.
Interesting commentary.

One of the most senior Saudi Arabian Islamist extremist has surrendered to local authorities, becoming the first known such figure to give himself up following the death of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden.
Officials at Saudi Arabia’s interior ministry said Khaled Hathal al-Qahtani, who figured high on a list of 47 most-wanted terrorists recently issued by Riyadh and had been linked to al-Qaida by Interpol, had given himself up earlier this week.

The royal burial in Saudi Arabia - is this from the recent event or was his death previous?
