2017-10-25

Get a remote starter for your car.
Speaking at the Future Investment Initiative conference in Riyadh he said: "We want to go back to what we were, the moderate Islam that is open to the world, open to all the religions.

"We will not waste 30 years of our lives dealing with murderous Moslem ideas, we will destroy them today".

The conference, which runs until Thursday, aims to show how the country is opening itself up to the modern world and diversifying economically.

#7  "Get a remote starter for your car<"/em>

"Nah, why do you think we have 'allowed' women to drive alone?? They'll be standing in line to use the Royal Bentley ( at least until the FIRST explosion)."

#6  I'm willing to wait ans see what he does - disbanding the religious police would be a good marker. Even if he does produce, let's not think this is anything other than removing threats to his power.

Long run, it won't help. If every muslim in the world should suddenly become a peacenik, the breathing space would only be one generation as the new crop would read the source text and realize they should be killing infidels.

#4  He knows radicals will be returning from the smoking ruins of ISIS and will be a serious problem for the Magic Kingdom which will be running short of oil revenue to buy them off.

Also its a good time to ingratiate with the west so the Princes have a place to retire.
