Police have foiled dozens of terror attacks’
2004-04-30
Saudi police foiled dozens of terror attacks in the kingdom before last week’s suicide bombing in Riyadh, Interior Minister Prince Nayef said in remarks published on Thursday. “The details of those operations will be revealed in the future and will show what role the police have played in saving the country from such evils,” the official Saudi Press Agency quoted Nayef as telling reporters on Wednesday. “Had they taken place, God forbid, (the bombing of) the traffic (and General Security building) and the Nov 8 (attack) would have been nothing in comparison.” Nayef did not elaborate on the nature of the foiled operations.

Maybe the Saudis should ask themselves why the terrorists hate them.
