[ALMANAR.LB] A boom-mobile went kaboom!Thursday night at a security checkpoint in the Saudi capital Riyadh, killing the driver and wounding two coppers, the interior ministry said. The attack was blamed by the so-called 'Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... of Iraq and the Levant' (ISIL) takfiri ...an adherent of takfir wal hijra, an offshoot of Salafism that regards everybody who doesn't agree with them as apostates who most be killed... group, which has been blamed for killing coppers and for slaughtering several civilians. ISIL branch in Najd, the central region of 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... , said on its Twitter account that Thursday's attack was a message to jihadists held in Riyadh's Al-Hair prison that they had not been forgotten. "Let the Moslem captives in Al-Hair and everywhere know that we will not relent or tire until we release them from imprisonment, with permission from Allah," SITE quoted the tweet as saying. The blast went off when police manning the checkpoint on Al-Hair Road stopped the car for a routine check, said the ministry. "The driver blew up the car and killed himself," it said. The coppers were in a "stable condition" in hospital, the interior ministry said in a statement carried by the official Saudi Press Agency. The ministry identified the driver as 19-year-old Saudi national Abdallah al-Rashid and said the suspect had killed his uncle before blowing himself up. Asked whether the bombing was linked to ISIL, General Mansour al-Turki, the interior ministry front man, said he was waiting for information from Sherlocks. In the southwestern city of Taif on July 3, a policeman was bumped off during a raid in which three people were enjugged Yez got nuttin' on me, coppers! Nuttin'! and flags of the ISIL group Death Eaters found, police said earlier. A fourth suspect was later rubbed out. |
