 [DAWN] Soddy Arabia...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... on Thursday beheaded a Pak man for heroin smuggling, the twelfth person from Pakistain to be executed in the kingdom for drug trafficking since mid-October. They are among 85 foreigners and Saudis put to death this year in the oil-rich kingdom, according to an estimated tally. Saudi Arabia has one of the world's highest execution tolls. The sentence against Ismail Khan Sayed was carried out in Eastern Province after his conviction for smuggling "a large amount" of heroin, the Interior Ministry said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency.
