| Saudi Prince meets dirt nap |
| 2003-12-03 |
| EFL. Add salt. Saudi Prince Talal bin Abdulaziz Al Rashid was shot and killed late last Thursday night while hunting gazelles in the Algerian desert when his convoy of four-wheel drive vehicles was ambushed in the Djelfa region. |

| #3 Fred, I like you're version better. Was there an orange sunset at the horizon as the lovers sat nessled on the hood of their landrover? I mean before the craven Mossad sniper blew several large caliber slugs through their spinal columns? |

| #2 I think this is the fourth incidence of this report we've seen, starting last Thursday. Maybe it's the fifth. I'm pretty well convinced he's dead by now, which means it's probably the body of an underling and he's actually made his getaway to his secret lair. The killing has been attributed to GSPC from the first. There was a fairly detailed editorial on it in Arab News a day or two ago. Seems like the Soddies are buying the "false propaganda" that Qaeda kills Muslims, since they have the corpses to prove it. I have no idea what the CIA and the Mossad dabbling in Soddy affairs would have to do with the departure from the gene pool of a Soddy prince hunting gazelles or bustards or polar bears in Algeria -- but then, I don't have a turban. I'm mildly curious as to why he picked that particular area to slaughter defenseless animals, but figure that what really happened was that he went to meet his lover, Mahmoud. They quarreled, probably over a woman, a sultry wench with fire in her eyes, perhaps a Gypsy, and Mahmoud knifed him, then killed himself in remorse. I'm thinking of writing an opera about it, if I ever learn Italian and how to write music. The story probably didn't make the decadent Western press because nobody cared. Sad, but true. It's only the repetition that makes me remember it at all... |

| #1 Brian, Fred is not against including all details especially the funny editors note that was included: Editors Note: It is interesting that there has been no reference whatsoever to this âterrorâ act in Western press. It is unlikely that this is an Al-Qaida operation for mainstream press misses no opportunity to attribute ever violent act to the group and it would most likely be on every major news channel as a way of peddling the false propaganda that Al-Qaida targets Muslims. This style of killing has all of the earmarks of a CIA assassination and follows recent speculation that the CIA and Mossad are active in destabilizing operations inside the Kingdom. The editor seems to be dabbling in psychedalia. |
