Arabia
Saudis Offer Militants One-Month Summer Vacation Amnesty
2004-06-23
EFL & Found in Comments over at LGF
Saudi Arabia announced a limited amnesty Wednesday for Muslim militants who surrender in the next month, saying they will not face the death penalty and will only be prosecuted if they committed acts that hurt others.
The vacation is believed to include a job application for the Sody police department: Now Hiring.
Crown Prince Abdullah read the brief announcement on behalf of his half-brother, King Fahd, on state television Wednesday.
The statement also included commentary of the Jooooos and how they are responsible for everything!
He said the offer was open to anyone who has not yet been "arrested for carrying out terrorist acts." "We are opening the door of amnesty and will allow you free passage to country of your choosing... to everyone who deviated from the path of right and committed a crime in the name of the religion of peace, which is in fact a corruption on earth," he said. "We swear by God that nothing will prevent us from striking the infidel Americans and Joooos with our full might" anyone who ignores the offer, Abullah said.
He later added that all memebers of the Sody security force that are affiliated with AlQ were not required to turn themselves in.

#10  Where's the "repenting"? I didn't see the "repenting". I hear they're big on that over there. It's like two minutes for high sticking.

#9  Didn't President W. issue an ultimatum to nations who harbor terrorists about 2.5 years ago?

Even using the New Math, these Saudi jerks and the Clown Prince should have 48 hours to give the Coalition forces 20 reliable Al-Queda targets / base cities (I don't care which) for us to BOMB or we'll stick some ordinance up THEIR asses instead.

Allegedly, Al-Queda has been blackmailing the Saudis for years... so it shouldn't be a big deal for the Saudis to tell us where the terrorists are. Right??

#6  I screwed up. The event should have been better defined as "scores of militants surrender in SA". We know there are thousands of potential militants in SA, but the number with AK47s attached to their bodies is probably smaller. Was there ever an estimate done?

In any case, the lights have just been turned on in the Magic Kingdom. Now watch the scurrying. A futile attempt, but so fun to watch.

Refresh my memory, exactly how many real jihadis have gotten the death penalty lately?
