Saudi King: Terror Is Work of the Devil
Oct 14, 9:37 AM (ET)


CAIRO, Egypt (AP) - Islamic terrorism is "the work of the devil," and Saudi Arabia will fight it "until we eliminate this scourge," King Abdullah said in an interview broadcast Friday.

In the interview with ABC-TV's Barbara Walters, he also said the kingdom will expand the rights of women and eventually allow them to drive.

...


When asked why groups such as al-Qaida, the terror network led by the Saudi-born Osama bin Laden, had taken root in the kingdom, he replied: "Madness and evil. It is the work of the devil."

...

The kingdom was initially faulted for being slow to clamp down on militants and their financing, but it drastically stepped up its measures after al-Qaida-linked groups launched a series of terror attacks on Saudi soil in May 2003.

2. Actions speak louder than words, pal.
Become a free and open society, with equal rights for all.
A real justice system that is at least brought to the 20th century, rather than the fifteenth.
Start putting terrorists through this due process system.....and then I'll believe your words.

7. Him and * are reading from the same playbook.
Only this dude might know how to read, though.

Accuse others what you're guilty of to throw off the scent. Well, it's not working, asshole.

10. So, he's admitting his regime is the devil?
Terror is the response of people left with few choices and nothing to lose. Keep holding people down and sucking up all the goodies for a select few and there WILL be more terror.

13. Another royal purge
like the odd deaths of Saudi princes on and about 9/11 in the offing?

The best/only cure for Arabian terrorism would be for the Saudi royals to be dethroned and their money severely regulated if not confiscated.

Hey, it's for God after all. It's the noble sacrifice to make.
