(Reuters) Sixteen Saudis held in Guantanamo return home: SPA
Sixteen Saudis held in Guantanamo return home: SPA

December 14, 2006

RIYADH (Reuters) - Sixteen Saudis held in the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay,
where foreign terrorism suspects are held, returned to the kingdom on Thursday,
the official Saudi Press Agency (SPA) reported.

The United States sent 29 Saudis home earlier in 2006 after negotiating a framework
agreement with Saudi Arabia for the return of its citizens from the controversial
prison.

Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdul-Aziz told SPA they will be allowed to meet
their kin but did not say when they will be freed.

"The returnees will be subject to regulations applied in the kingdom," he said without
elaboration.

5. an editorial cartoon i'd like to see...
i'm not much of an artist- more of an "idea man"...

here's what i envision- uncle sam dressed as a crack whore, on his knees sucking the dick of a saudi sheik for another "hit" of oil.

plaster the image ALL over the u.s...americans need to wake up to what our oil addiction is doing to our national soul.
